Her boyfriend became worried when he couldn't reach her and called the police who found Angie inside. She had been raped and murdered.Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the murder of Angie Samota. Angie's good friend at college was a woman named Sheila Wysocki and that's a name that many true crime fans may know. Sheila refused to give up on her friend and the search for her killer. She wouldn't let the police give up either. That hard work and persistence paid off in 2009 when DNA revealed the identity of Angie's killer.
