[Music] on the morning of May 26th 1990 Joe arens recuperating from a broken leg was
00:00:05
having breakfast at home with his mom and three friends when they saw a clown approaching carrying balloons and
00:00:11
flowers and we kind of figured I had cast on somebody was sending to heal and for
00:00:18
gesture this is like oh what a delightful gift to cheer you up with your broken leg
00:00:25
right my mother opened the door and then we heard Bang and she fell at that point
00:00:32
we knew something was wrong my mother was struggling to breathe and then I jumped to the phone you know called
00:00:38
Diamond one right away as the clown slowly and silently walked to a car Joe and some of his friends try to get a
00:00:45
closer look at anything that might help describe the disguised attacker the only
00:00:49
thing it didn't have any color on it was the shoes that were solid black and the
00:00:53
white gloves and did you notice anything about the Clown's eyes I did that that's
00:00:59
the most thing I I saw was the big brown eyes and the clown gets in the car what
00:01:04
kind of car was it it was a white learon and does the car peel off no it just goes into gear and drives off like
00:01:14
nothing happened while some of Joe's friends remained at the house waiting for EMS Joe got in Marlene's car and
00:01:20
tried to chase down the clown but he couldn't catch up he is seen here back home afterwards where TV news crews were
00:01:26
on the scene meanwhile with the Clown's balloons and Flow hours left behind Marlene was rushed to the hospital
00:01:32
barely alive where she was put on life support I kept telling her I love her and I don't want her to go and Please
00:01:38
Don't Leave Me 2 days later with no hope of a recovery life support was removed and Marlene died I knew my life was
00:01:46
going to change and I knew it was going to become hell cuz she wasn't here to help
00:01:52
