Episode description

22 year old Jane Boroski was driving home from the county fair in Keene, New Hampshire late on the night of August 6, 1988, when she stopped for a soda at a machine outside of a closed convenience store. She was 7 months pregnant and it was a hot summer night. She got a soda from the machine, went back to her car, and sat there for a moment to have the drink. She gave little thought to a Jeep Wagoner that had pulled into the parking lot and parked right next to her. She however noticed when the man driving the vehicle walked around the back of her car and right up to her window. He asked her if the payphone was working, and then immediately opened her door, reached in and grabbed her and dragged her out of her car and held a knife to her. At a certain point, Jane attempts to break free and run away from her attacker, but he catches up to her, takes her to the ground, and stabs and slashes at her multiple times. He stops after a while, and gets up and goes back to his vehicle and drives away, leaving Jane for dead. Jane struggles to make her way back to her car, but manages to do so, and drives off to a friend's house down the road to get help. She makes it to her friend’s house, who calls 911, and despite the vicious attack, Jane, and her unborn child, both survive the ordeal. Jane doesn't realize it, but she is a potential survivor of the Connecticut River Valley Killer, who is believed to have murdered at least 7 other women over the previous decade. And to this day, the killer's identity is still unknown.
