700 Days (Part One)

Invisible Choir

No one lives forever. We’re all familiar with the cliché, “life is short.” But have you ever wondered just exactly how short? Have you ever considered the manner in which you might leave this earth when it’s your time to go? Death by fire, drowning, or being shot & killed are only some of the greatest fears held by many that have contemplated their own mortality. It’s very rare that these worst case scenarios will ever play out in real life...but the frightening truth is, that they sometimes do. In August of 2015, 31 year-old ex-beauty queen Judy Malinowski would be a victim of such unexpected & horrific events...when she was burned alive by her abusive boyfriend at a Speedway gas station in Gahanna, OH. Death is inevitable for all of us...but when drugs, homelessness, & domestic violence are the major components of an individual’s environment...one can only hope they’re able to make it out, before it’s too late…

**Trigger Warning** This case includes graphic depictions of domestic violence and murder. If you or someone you know are experiencing domestic abuse or violence. Get help. Call 1-800-799-SAFE (7233).
