205: A Stranger Killed Katy w/ William LaRue

True Crime Tuesday presents A Stranger Killed Katy with William LaRue

In the early morning hours of August 29, 1986, Clarkson University sophomore Katy Hawelka – bright, pretty and full of life – strolled back to her upstate New York campus after a night out. On the dimly lit path beside the university’s ice hockey arena, a stranger emerged from the darkness. The brutal sexual assault and strangulation that followed rocked the campus and the local community. When Katy was declared brain-dead three days later, her family’s nightmare had only just begun. 

A STRANGER KILLED KATY is the true story of a life cut tragically short, and of the fight by a grieving mother and others more than 30 years later to ensure that a killer would spend the rest of his life behind bars.
