On the morning of December 21st, 1991, Hazel Show walked into her apartment to find her 16-year-old daughter Laurie, viciously murdered, her throat slashed and her body assaulted by multiple stab wounds. The police quickly fingered three participants in the heinous crime: Lawrence Butch Yunkin as the getaway driver, Tabitha Buck as the one who held Laurie hostage in the doomed apartment, and Lisa Michelle Lambert, the one who reportedly committed the murderous act. Lisa was demonized in Lancaster County and in the media, and she was eventually sentenced to life without parole.In this utterly provocative first-hand account, Lisa Lambert is breaking her silence on every last detail of the events surrounding the murder of Laurie Show. She describes the years of physical, sexual, and mental abuse she suffered at the hands of Lawrence, the murder as it actually happened, and the startling ways that law enforcement tampered with evidence and conspired to frame her for murder. More shocking still, Lisa details her account of being raped by members of Lancaster County s police force an event that would certainly provide the County with good reason to silence her forever.Love, Murder, and Corruption in Lancaster County is a gripping account about a travesty of justice and a woman s boundless determination to vindicate herself at last.
