Suzanne Jovin // 261

In December of 1998, a 21-year-old German woman studying at Yale turned in her senior essay and prepared for a pizza party. Later that night, a passerby called the police after stumbling upon Suzanne, unconscious and bleeding profusely in the street. She had been stabbed 17 times, and with a solid composite of her alleged killer, police narrowed in on someone from campus. This is the story of Suzanne Jovin.
