Aaren Marie Dunn

October 2, 1992 - June 26, 2000

Aaren Marie Dunn was born on October 2, 1992. She lived with her father, Robert W. Dunn. Aaren's mother said that she knew that Aaren was in danger, but no one would help her get full custody of Aaren. On June 26, 2000, Aaren's mother's fears were realized when Robert broke his seven year old daughter, Aaren's, arm. He also stabbed her with a kitchen knife.

Robert Dunn stabbed Aaren in the chest and in the neck until she died. Aaren's older sister, Nadine, had endured this torture as well, although she managed to get away from her father's grasp. She was eleven years old at the time. Nadine got away from her father and ran down the street to a convenience store for help.

Nadine was helped by two men. While Nadine went for help, her father stayed at home attacking Aaren.The men who helped Nadine ran to her house, but discovered that the front door was locked. They ran to the back of the house. The back door was unlocked, so they went in and found Robert Dunn hovering above little Aaren. She was not breathing. One of the men managed to pull Robert away from Aaren. When the police arrived, Aaren's father told them "The devil is here.". He then told them "I killed the devil. She was possessed. I killed the devil."
