Around 3:30 am on December 31, 1989, 11-year-old Collier Landry was woken up by the sound of his parents, Noreen and Jack Boyle, talking loudly in his mother’s bedroom. He heard a high-pitch scream from his three-year-old sister. A few minutes later, he heard a thud and, soon after, a louder thud. Collier immediately thought something was wrong with his mother. He got out of bed and looked in Noreen’s room, but it was pitch black. He was scared, so he went back to his room. A few minutes later, he heard Jack’s footsteps coming down the hallway. He closed his eyes and fell back asleep until around 8:30 am. The first thing he did was run to his mother’s room. But she wasn’t there. Collier went downstairs and saw his father talking to his grandmother. He asked where his mother was, and Jack responded, “Well, mommy took a little vacation, Collier.” Collier didn’t believe his father. He knew his mother would never leave him or his sister, and he dug for answers. Ultimately, at age 11, Collier would be a huge part of getting her justice.
