The Murder of Deanna Cook

In August 2012, the family of 32-year old Deanna Cook discovered her dead in the bathtub of her home. They immediately knew who was responsible for her murder, but the real question was could Deanna’s life have been spared? She made one last call to 911 the same day her life was taken.
