One August day in 1991, on her way to start anew, Mary Teresa Wojtyla was full hope and optimism for a new life. But as she headed to sign divorce papers and close the chapter on a tumultuous past, fate had other plans. The sound of screeching brakes and the fatal impact of a speeding train would silence Mary's story forever. But what drove her to cross a bustling track in effort to seek a fresh start, and how did the tragedy affect one man who was simply filming his hobby, in the wrong place at the wrong time? Join us as we explore the events leading up to that fateful day and the unanswered questions that linger as Dayvid leads this tragic tale of why you should always look both ways.
