[PREVIEW] Bonus — Darlene VanderGiesen
Description
Darlene VanderGiesen was a beloved member of the deaf community in Sioux Falls, South Dakota – until her life was tragically cut short by one of their very own.
It was quickly dubbed the “chainsaw murder” and splashed across headlines as a “lesbian love triangle gone wrong”. But the truth behind Darlene VanderGiesen’s death is far messier, and far more devastating, than the papers told it.
We’re looking past the media fanfare to the human story at the heart of it all – of an innocent woman murdered in an act of senseless jealousy – and considering how the US justice system handles perpetrators and victims who don’t fit in society’s neat boxes.
Spoiler: not super well.
