Equipped with that information, he dialed his closest friend, left the line open, and informed him that a shot was soon to be heard.
Later, Gary’s bullet would kill Doucet, who was taken to the hospital but passed away after going into a coma.
For almost a year, Doucet, a 25-year-old karate instructor, had been r*ping and abusing 11-year-old Jody while passing for a dependable family friend and teacher.
In 1983, the grooming started. Jody told The Sun, “At age 11, I just wanted Jeff to stop and not necessarily dead, so at first I was upset with what my father did.” The situation worsened until February 1984, when Doucet abducted Jody and led him on a 2,000-mile escape across the United States.
While the country looked for the missing youngster, the two journeyed across Texas before arriving in Anaheim, California, where they even went to Disneyland.
