Not from Fall River, Doreen was a transient from New Bedford with a drug addiction who relocated to finance her habit by prostitution.
Prostitution was rampant in the 70s in Fall River and the police seemed to turn a blind eye on it even though it was happening day and night only a block away from the town's police station.
While investigating Doreens' murder, the police uncovered something they had yet to think of.
 Alligations of a Satanic Cult by Karen Marsten, another prostitute claiming to be in fear of her life as well as her childs' due to knowing too much about Doreens' murder by a local pimp.
On February 8 , 1980 , Karen also goes missing, and later is said to be murdered , that is when arrests are made.
