1/ “These people that did this are looking over their shoulder every year because I'm not going anywhere. I am a fighter. My daughter was a fighter.” – Marlene Taraskiewicz

2/ On Sept. 14, 1992, 27-year-old Susan “Su” Taraskiewicz of Saugus, Mass, was found dead in the trunk of her own car. She had been beaten and stabbed.

3/ The car was found at an auto body shop in the nearby town of Revere, which is also not far from where Su worked at Logan Airport in the baggage department for Northwest Airlines.

4/ Su was the first woman in the company to become a ramp supervisor. But the path to her success was not smooth. According to Marlene, Su “went from boarding to cleaning the planes, but she wanted to get on the ramp so bad...”

5/ Marlene says when Su felt she was unfairly passed over for another job within the company, she filed a grievance and fought for three years until she won her case and was given the promotion with back pay.

6/ “She handled it very well. She'd come home and say, ‘I handled 100,000 bags today. It's not a job I wanted her to do and I told her that I didn't think as a female…”

7/ “…especially back then, it was a job for women, but she said, that's what she wants to do and I said, ‘Well, as long as you're careful and remember you are a female.’" – Marlene Taraskiewicz

8/ Su lived with her parents, but her busy work schedule of overnight and weekend shifts kept her out of the house often. Marlene says most days she knew Su had been home when she would see her work clothes in a laundry heap outside her bedroom door.

9/ On Sunday, Sept. 13, there was no heap. There should have been one because Su should have been coming off an overnight shift. Marlene says she brushed it off, thinking Su got stuck working overtime.

10/ On Monday, Sept. 14, Marlene was at work when she got a call from her daughter, Debbie, saying one of Su’s co-workers called the house to alert her that Su hadn’t shown up for her shift and that she hadn’t been seen since her Saturday night shift.

11/ Marlene immediately left her job to go to the Saugus Police Station. After providing her daughter’s name, Marlene says she was told the police chief wanted to speak with her. Her daughter had been found.

12/ “I assumed that she got stuck someplace. We knew the chief of police. He sat down. He said, ‘Marlene I have bad news. Susan was found in the trunk of her car.’ I said, ‘what do you mean?’ He said, ‘Susan was murdered.’” – Marlene Taraskiewicz
