And really, you know, they're still waiting for a resolution, which we will get to later.
But I want to remind everyone, listen, if you haven't watched or listened to this episode, The Killing of Teresa Fusco, go check it out and then come on back so we can talk about it.
So, Erin, on June 12th, 1984, 15-year-old Kelly Morrissey left her home after dinner.
She's going to meet a friend, and she's last seen at a payphone near a Shell gas station in Linbrook before she disappears.
After about five months, 16-year-old Teresa Fusco goes missing after she leaves her job at a local roller rink.
How unusual was it to have two teenagers go missing within a few months?
I mean, it kind of reminded me a little bit of where I grew up, you know, in the suburbs of Toronto.
And we had the roller rink that everyone went to.
And every once in a while, they would have DJ night and it would all be...
you know, 15, 16, 14 year olds.
And everyone felt safe because it was just a bunch of kids.
But, you know, to talk about the case, when Kelly's mother, Iris, realizes that Kelly has not returned home, Iris and her husband, they call the police.
And then the police tell them that because Kelly hasn't been missing for at least 24 hours, they're not going to take a report.
So, in fact, it wasn't until Teresa Fusco disappears that Kelly's case actually gets a second look.
This is nearly six months after Kelly went missing.
Teresa's body is discovered near Long Island Railroad tracks.
She's been beaten.
She's been strangled.
And police start to look at the possible links between the two cases.
