I think that's what initially really drew me to this case, like made me just like morbidly fascinated and absolutely horrified by this case was just the extent of the mutilation that was done to this woman. Yeah. I could not conceive of it. I still can't conceive of it.

Even to this day, it stays as one of the most horrific cases of mutilation. Oh, yeah. You can conjure. Now, at the sight of this poor woman's absolutely mangled body, Betty immediately grabbed her daughter and ran for the nearest phone. And she called the University Division of the LAPD and reported what she had seen.

Now, she was fully panicked, obviously, and absolutely horrified, going through complete shock. So she didn't adequately describe what she found. She wasn't able to convey it in a way that it would be a little understandable. How would you? So the communications officer on the other end noted that it was a, quote, possible 390, which is a stuporous drunk down in the lot at 39th and Norton Avenue.

It's like, dude, why would she be that horrified if it was just a drunk person stumbling around? That's the thing. Like, I'm like, I feel like you even if you note that as like, I think this is what she said, you should be like, but she sounds really upset. So it could get there fast. There's other things going on here.

Now, whether because of confusion or poor communication, the officer also neglected to get the caller's name or phone number. So didn't know her name was Betty, didn't know how to contact her after that. Oof. I don't really know why. Maybe because they were thinking it was like a stuporous drunk situation. Maybe like first day on the job type vibes. Very first day on the job.

Training and their overseer was like in the bathroom. A lot of this scene was manhandled in a very bad way, which I think led to the reason why we don't have definitive things even today. That was the opposite of a bang-up job. Yeah, not great at all. In fact, it was going to be a full 10 days before investigators were able to track Bersinger down through notices in the papers.

Like, they couldn't find her anywhere. Wow. All they had was that initial call, and then that was it. So they just came up upon it and were like, okay. Jesus. Now, expecting to find someone sleeping off a night of drinking in a lot, the dispatcher sent a single patrol call to investigate the call.

And countless journalists and press photographers had heard the call go out over the police radios that they all kept in their cars. So they all kind of followed just to... See if there was any story there. Yeah. Los Angeles Examiner reporter Will Fowler and his partner Felix Pagel were the first to arrive at the scene before the LAPD had arrived. Oh, shit.

So the journalists arrived before the police. And y'all know how that goes.

That's never good. They were shocked. Because Fowler said, there's something about a dead body you couldn't mistake. It's difficult to describe two parts of a body as being one. However, both halves were facing upwards. Her arms were extended above her head. Her translucent blue eyes were half opened. So I closed her eyelids.

Now that's really sweet. Don't touch a dead body. Why the fuck did you touch a dead body? Yeah. Don't be the hero. I'm sorry. Beautiful. Beautiful sentiment. Love that for you.
