Mary Vincent: Fighting The Hatchet Killer

When 14 year old Mary decided to hitchhike back home, a large van pulled up beside her. The driver looked harmless, like a friendly grandfather, and offered her a ride. But as they began to drive in the wrong direction, Mary's sense of unease grew. Hours later, she found herself fighting for her life, trapped at the bottom of a 30-foot cliff with both arms severed. The man responsible, known as the hatchet killer, fled the scene, leaving Mary to fend for herself. This horrifying attack would haunt her for the rest of her life, while the killer went on to plan his next attack, which would happen almost two decades later.
