1988 attack survivor , the lone known survivor of the Connecticut River Valley killings, exclusively tells In Touch’s there is a “very real possibility that there is a serial killer or two running around down in Connecticut and Massachusetts” following a recent string of dead bodies found in the New England area.

Between March and April, the remains of 12 people were discovered across Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts. A 13th body was found in May after authorities uncovered “what appeared to be a human leg bone” less than a mile from ’s Rhode Island estate but no foul play is suspected at this time.

Although authorities have not connected the cases, Boroski speculates it may be more than just coincidence — a theory she shares as part of In Touch’s new true crime video series, In Touch Investigates.

The timeline paints a chilling picture. In early March, detectives found the body of Paige Fannon, 35, in Connecticut’s Norwalk River. Days later, on March 20, the remains of Denise Leary, 59, were discovered in a wooded area near a New Haven home.

On March 22, 45-year-old Meggan Meridith’s body was located near a bike path along Hall of Fame Avenue in Springfield. Then, on March 26, Rhode Island State Police recovered the body of Michele Romano, 56, in a wooded area off Plainfield Pike.

Several other unidentified remains have also been found in New England towns in recent weeks, fueling fears of a serial killer — despite no confirmed links between the cases and official causes of death still under investigation.

Boroski had her own encounter with a potential serial killer, sharing her harrowing tale of survival as part of the new In Touch Investigates true crime video series nearly four decades after she was targeted by a deranged psychopath on her way back home from the Cheshire County Fair in August 1988.

“I was 22 years old. I was seven months pregnant. I left a fair … a small county fair, I was headed home. It was really hot that summer. It was at night, it was late at night and I decided to stop at a store that was closed but it had a soda machine outside,” she tells In Touch about the market she parked at located in West Swanzey, New Hampshire. “So, I decided to stop and grab myself a soda. So, this is 1988. This is a small town that virtually had no major crime.”

“As I was sitting there drinking my soda, getting ready to take off, this vehicle came and pulled in and parked right next to me on my passenger side of my car. This monster got out of his car and walked over to my driver’s door and tried to get me to go with him,” Boroski says.

“He did get me out of the car. He held a knife up against my neck,” she reveals about the disturbing chain of events. “He tackled me down like a football player. Got on top of me and ultimately stabbed me 27 times and left me for dead. I really tried to protect my baby. I tried to protect the torso part of my body. He mostly stabbed me in the chest.”

After the vicious attack, Boroski and her baby miraculously survived.

As for what happened next, Boroski tells In Touch, “Well, I was in the hospital and I happened to read an article about these other women and how the authorities were saying there’s a connection from me to this serial killer — the Connecticut River Valley Serial Killer, they had named him.”

She spoke with detectives when they came to visit her and was informed there were seven other victims while Boroski was the lone survivor. Police never caught her attacker.

Although authorities across New England have urged the public not to speculate or engage in online sleuthing that could interfere with investigations, Boroski believes awareness is essential.

“What is wrong with that?” she asks In Touch’s Kristin Thorne. “People need to know this stuff. When I was attacked, now this is, you know, 36 years ago, there was no internet. There was no cell phones or anything. No Facebook, no social media. I did not know there was a serial killer running around in New Hampshire and Vermont. I had no clue.”

“Today, you have the opportunity to know this information and I don’t see it as a bad thing,” she adds. “I see it as a good thing.”

For now, law enforcement is advising caution and not panic as they investigate whether the recent deaths are isolated tragedies or something far more sinister.
