In Episode 2, we took you to the crime scene: a motel room in Groton where Desiree, an 18-year-old prostitute was strangled to death. She was last seen leaving Bank Street in New London that night. Episode 3 explores community reaction to the murder. Desire had hoped her painting ability would help her walk away from the streets for good. New London in the '80s, too, had big dreams: That artists and musicians could bring new life to the old port city. In 1984, Desiree's chances for a better life ended tragically, and her unsolved murder, some say, represented a sense of dashed hope for New London.
