    New Mexico: 31 Down, 19 to Go, 2003

    Sometimes in life we have big dreams for ourselves.  We feel like we want to change the world!  Well, sometimes we can --- but, for the unlucky few,  it doesn’t happen until after we die. This episode is about a woman killed long before her time, and in death, she changed the path of many victims and would-be-victims across the USA.  All of this wouldn’t have happened if she hadn’t been raped and murdered during a holiday weekend in 2003.
