En synnerligen dramatisk historia detta också. Som det blivit film om.
Intervju med Dianna Bedwell nedan:
For anyone not familiar with the Sylvia Likens homicide, it will forever be known as one of the most brutal and violent murders in Indianapolis history. The crime has been the subject of several books and films. Although the murder occurred more than 50 years ago, it will live with Dianna Bedwell until she departs from this world.
Sylvia Likens was one of Dianna’s little sisters. Not only did Dianna lose her beloved sister to a horrific crime, she also lost Cecil Knutson, her husband to a tragic accident a few years ago. While driving through the desert, Dianna and Cecil’s car broke down.
Sadly, Cecil didn’t survive. Dianna managed to survive on rainwater and orange peels. Her will to survive was so powerful, she just refused to die. Her story about her near death will be captured in a movie titled One Wrong Turn: The Dianna Bedwell Story. Dianna so kindly answered a few questions about her family and her near death experience.

Citat:
Can you tell me some of the details on how you got stranded in the desert? How did you survive? What kept you going? I am sure it would have been so easy to just give up and be reunited with your family in Heaven.
Yes, we left the casino and headed for Palm Springs to be with my son and his family for Mother’s Day. And my husband thought this road was a shortcut to Palm Springs and he didn’t want to get into any traffic. Anyway, we went down this road and it led to an Indian reservation, but he thought it was the right road. And when he realized it wasn’t, we were in a rocky area in the mountain area. He tried to turn around, but didn’t see this one good sized rock. We landed on top of it and couldn’t get off it.

How did Sylvia’s death affect you and Jenny? I understand that Jenny never recovered.
No, at times she had breakdowns. She had to go on nerve pills for the rest of her life. But I wasn’t living close to her since I lived out of state. But I know that she had very bad memories. Bless her heart. She just didn’t talk about it. I guess it was hard to deal with. Of course, I understand that it would be for anybody.
Is there anything about Sylvia and Jenny that you would like people to know? Perhaps details that have never been shared that you want everyone to know.
Yes, I will say one thing. They were both sweet, kind, loving, and trusting. And they were virgins. My sister (Sylvia) didn’t even get to taste life. She was yanked up too early for any young lady. I just want everyone to know they were just sweet young ladies. It was a different era we lived in.

In 2015 Dianna Bedwell and her husband were leaving an Indian casino and took ONE WRONG TURN down a deserted highway. After weeks of searching by aircraft, cars, and on foot - they were about to give up the search and then this miracle happened. Two people went in but only one made it out alive. This story was broadcast all over the world, and as Gloria Allred said, "One day the facts will be known," (NBC San Diego) - this is that story.
