Afterwards, Mary drove to her house (located at 611 S 10th St.) She hung out with her boyfriend of three months, Randy Benson, and they watched a movie together. He left at 12:45 AM, and one of the neighbours saw him walk back to his house. This was the last time that anyone had seen Mary alive, as she died shortly afterwards.

Mary’s daughter, Amber, went to her mother’s bedroom…
