In 1974, 16 year old Wayne Wyers met 15 year old Pricilla Bailey at church after Pricilla’s cousin, Elaine, set them up. Wayne was tall with dark brown eyes and dark brown hair. Wayne and Pricilla hit it off immediately and over the course of the next several months they would continue to have fun, date and enjoy the freedom of youth. But 13 years later, what started as a teenage love story turned into a tragedy with a ripple effect that touched the lives of countless people when Pricilla convinced her 11 year old daughter Mary to kill Wayne.
