Heading Into Target

On June 2, 2007, Kelsey went to Target in Overland, Kansas to buy her boyfriend a 6-month anniversary present. She couldn’t have known that lurking between the aisles, there was someone planning to commit a horrible crime, and she was the primary victim. Without an inkling of knowledge or even a sense of any evil nearby, she went about her shopping. Sadly for Kelsey, her predator was watching her, and waiting to make his move as soon as she left the store.

7:07 P.M.

Approximately 7:07 p.m., Kelsey made her way out of Target and into the parking lot behind the Oak Park Mall. Right before leaving, her mother had reported that they had spoken on the phone while she was walking around inside. So when 4 hours had passed with no sign of Kelsey arriving home, her parents began to wonder, and worry, about what had happened to their beautiful daughter. When they found her car in the parking lot across where she was last seen, they knew that something was horribly wrong.
