In  the summer of 1995, 13 year old Thad Phillips would throw himself down a flight of stairs in order to call for help. He had been held captive for almost 2 days, being tortured in the worst imaginable way. His abductor was a sexual sadist, who had a fascination with the sound of breaking bones. The boy had suffered multiple leg fractures and was on death’s door by the time the police found him. He was the lucky one. The abductor had done the same to another teenage boy a year prior, with this boy’s body being found badly decomposed in a nearby river. The person responsible for this was the neighborhood bully, a 17 year old sociopath named Joe Clark. This is the case of the Baraboo Bone Breaker.
