During a nearly 18 month span beginning the winter of 2003, three women in Wunsocket,

Rhode Island disappeared without a trace, leaving their families and investigators searching for answers.

It wasn't until detectives received an anonymous voicemail that the pieces finally came together

in what would later be referred to as one of the most horrific homicide cases in the city's history.

I'm Kylie Lowe and this is the case of Audrey Lynn Harris, Christine Dumont, and Claudette Harris had just gotten off the phone with her 33-year-old daughter, Audrey Lynn Harris.

During that call, Audrey told her mother that she wanted to enter a rehabilitation program

and she was on her way over to her mom's house to talk more about it.

She told Claudette, quote, Ma, I'm going to come over and see you.

I'm done with these drugs.

End quote. Then she hung up.

Claudette waited for Audrey to arrive that Sunday night,

but she never walked through the door.

One of the original investigators on this case, Edward Lee Jr. of the Wunsocket Police Department,

co-authored a book about the case with Linda Rosenkrits called Ripper.

In the book, the authors lay out the first efforts by both Cladette

and law enforcement to track Audrey down those first few days. Although it was concerning that Audrey never arrived that night when she said she was on her way over,

Claret did not immediately report Audrey missing.

Audrey was a mother to three children, though she did not have custody of her kids at the time.

She did not have a permanent address and stayed between friends' houses.

She was known to use drugs and engage in sex work, and at the time she was on probation

following her release from prison in January of that year

for simple assault and battery and resisting arrest charges.
