The two co-workers watched as Dorothy's car sped towards them and then left. Dorothy Scott was never seen alive again. Her parents received calls weekly from an unknown man saying he had murdered their daughter. Eventually, Dorothy Scott's bones were found on a construction site, but her murderer has never been uncovered.
