96. Sounds Like Carmina Salcido Has A Life Wish

In April 1989, Ramon Salcido, a husband and father of three girls, went on a drunken, ghastly, deadly rampage, killing seven people, including his wife, two of his daughters, his mother-in-law, two sisters-in-law and a coworker.  What he did with his three daughters was particularly evil - he  took them to a dump, slit their throats from ear-to-ear and left them to die in piles of garbage.  The sole survivor was young Carmina, the youngest of Salcido's daughters - who was just about to turn 3 years old - we repeat, THREE years old.  Somehow the toddler was able to sit herself up and bend her head forward to prevent the wound to her neck from killing her.  And then she sat there for 36 hours until rescuers found her and saved her life.  Join Melissa as she recounts the heartbreaking, harrowing and ultimately life-affirming story of Carmina, who refused to die when just a baby - and despite continued hardship throughout her life, still maintains her strength and determination to carry on.  SUPPORT OUR SPONSOR - KLEANSPA BATH & BODY - visit www.kleanspa.com and enter promotional code TIPSTERS at checkout to receive 15% off your total order.  Kleanspa - prepare to smell delicious.
