Stephanie Ramos

And I was like, how have you been?

He was like, I got married again.

I said, well, that's great.

You know, just casual conversation.

And it wasn't a big deal.

I didn't think anything of it.

We hugged, like, good to see you.

Bye.

This would not be the last time Lauren Prier would see Eugene Gligor.

And the next time would be under vastly different circumstances.

Because not long after this chance run-in, detectives set their focus on Eugene Gligor.

He would put one persona out there and try to make himself look like one type of person, but behind closed doors, he was a different person.

So who was Eugene Gligor?

And did he kill Leslie Preer?

From ABC Audio and 2020, I'm Stephanie Ramos, and this is Blood and Water.

As I mentioned, Eugene Gligor and Lauren Prier broke up a few years prior to Leslie's murder.

Before the breakup, the two were inseparable.

They were part of a close-knit friend group.

Lauren and her high school friends still remember those times fondly, including one particular night in the spring of 1995.

So here you are.
