n 1996, a beautiful young woman was found naked, beaten, and strangled to death. The ensuing investigation revealed that the victim was a prostitute at a massage parlor called The Reflex Center in the pleasant rural community of Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania, and that some of her clients were prominent individuals of the community.

Within a week, the Pennsylvania State Police arrested a 27-year-old ex-boyfriend of the victim who had purportedly confessed to the crime. They described him as being obsessed with the victim and enraged by her rejections of his romantic advances.
