The Murder of Michelle Gardner-Quinn (Vermont)

Why talk about a case that was solved years ago? Because the answer to who did it isn’t the only thing that matters.

One night in October 2006, a college student needed to borrow a phone. She happened to ask a stranger with violent intentions. What makes that even harder to sit with is what investigators learned about this man afterward. There were red flags everywhere, allegations that reached back years, but none of it stopped him from being there that night.

This young woman’s story did not end with what happened to her. The work she cared about continues through the people who love her. Twenty years later, her legacy is still very much alive.
