Nightmare on Oak St.

On March 9, 2018 the body of Binghamton University student Haley Anderson was found in the home of a young frat member off campus. Haley was a Nursing student from Long Island, NY who had quickly fallen in love with the Binghamton area upon visiting colleges years prior. There was a clear suspect from the beginning, however he was nowhere to be found. This heartbreaking story would take investigators 3,800 miles away and would eventually lead to charges that are literally unheard of in the United States. “Femicide”; the homicide, or intentional killing, of a woman or a girl & is used in cases where there are gender-motivated offenses. According to UNwomen.org femicide is “It is the most extreme and brutal manifestation of violence against women and girls which occurs on a continuum of multiple and related forms of violence, at home, in workplaces, schools or public spaces, including intimate partner violence, sexual harassment and other forms of sexual violence, harmful practices and trafficking.”

This is Haley's story
