The Boston Strangler case unfolded before the golden age of serial killers, yet it continues to puzzle investigators & the public alike. In the early 1960s, a wave of murders gripped Boston with fear.

On Friday, June 20, family, friends, and community members will gather at Memorial Park in Taunton, Mass from 6 to 8 PM to honor Debra Melo, a woman whose warmth, love, and spirit continue to touch lives — even 25 years after she disappeared. The event welcomes families of other missing and murdered loved ones from the region, providing support and a space to share information about their cases.  

She changed her name, erased her past, and methodically poisoned everyone who stood in her way. The disturbing true story of Jolly Jane Toppan, who turned nursing into murder in 1800s Massachusetts. What drove her to become New England's deadliest woman?
