In the early hours on a Friday morning, the moon had displayed its full shape and the stars had taken their positions on the cloudless sky of the lower part of south Philadelphia. The occupants of Walnut Street had been aroused from their sleep by the sounds of two rapid gunshots around 3 A.M. that morning. Mr. Andrew, a business guru, had been hacked to death in the living room; while Betty, his wife, and Megan, his daughter, were kidnapped. Nancy, the cook, however escaped as she stayed out of sight and hid inside the closet in her room, where she was before the armed men came in.

She remained at that spot till the neighbors who heard the gunshot called the police department.Fifteen minutes later, they arrived at the scene with three patrol cars. Nancy was seen sitting beside the little staircase outside, sobbing. When she saw the officers, she stood up and fo
