Show Notes

It's the night of June 5, 1989, and a shadow is cast over the crowd at the Worcester Auditorium, as members of North High's class of '89 are hearing the names of their classmates called one-by-one to receive their high school diploma.

One classmate isn't present.

Less than a mile away up on Bell Hill, the body of Nereida Melendez is buried under a pile of wet leaves in a wooded area off Elliot Street.

What's meant to be a time of celebration for these Worcester teens is quickly turned to tragedy.

This is Part 2 of the Nereida Melendez story.
