Death at a Dumpster : The Stabbing, the Sex & the Sequel

by Linda Ellis

People would converge on a spring night, a Saturday night in 1982 at the Jersey shore. One of them wouldn’t be going home. It was a cold-blooded murder spurred by the heat of lust and greed. Mistakes were made. Nevertheless, it could quite easily have been a perfect crime. It is only because one of the players was rendered stone stupid by an insatiable appetite for sex – a special kind of nothing-to-do-with-love sex - that this case ever reached a courtroom. Eighteen years later, the family of the victim is able to shed the black of mourning and don the blood red of retaliation. Enraged by what they saw as inadequate punishment meted out by a court, the grieving family has a new opportunity for dark justice. More than one family seeks closure. Another victim has been mourned all these years. It’s a race for revenge. Who will win?
