Show Notes

Long distance partners Claudia Brenner and Rebecca Wight met up for a romantic weekend of camping and hiking around the Appalachian Trail in the spring of 1988. At the time, they felt like they might spend the rest of their lives together. However, their time was cut short when Rebecca and Claudia were attacked by a stranger in the woods 34 years ago today.
