The Murder of Crystal Perry (Maine)

BRIDGTON, MAINE: 12-year old Sarah Perry was asleep in bed when an attacker took her mother's life. It took over a decade for DNA evidence to bring Crystal Perry's killer to justice.

Sarah Perry is now the author of “After the Eclipse”, a memoir that documents her early life in Bridgton, Maine with her mother, as well as the details and aftermath of her murder in 1994.

From her own memories and through conversations with Crystal’s family, friends, and acquaintances, as well as evidence and case files, Sarah Perry got to know her mother’s life through a new lens and see clearly the issues working against the search for answers in Crystal Perry’s case.
