PROPERTY OF THE FOLSOM WOLF

Paperback. The shocking true story of deviant biker couple Cynthia Coffman and Greg Marlow - and their California spree of torture and murder. In November of 1986, a 20yr old college student was abducted from a California shopping mall. Five days later, a pretty 19yr old vanished from the resort town of Huntington Beach. When police found them, they knew the girls had been raped, tortured and brutally murdered. What they didn't know was that a man and a woman had committed the crimes - together. Only a few short months before, housewife Cynthia Coffman had left St Louis - and her loving family - for a thrill-seeking life on the road. In California, she met ex-convict Greg Marlow, known to his prison inmates as the "Folsom Wolf". As his sex slave, Cynthia tattooed his name into her flesh, and accompanied Greg on a cross-country trek of sex, drugs and violence, Their "honeymoon" would end with two savage killings. After a sensational trial - in which they viciously turned on each other - Coffman and Marlow were both sentenced to death. Despite her efforts to appeal her conviction on the basis of the "battered woman syndrome," Cynthia Coffman remained the first woman in California since 1977 to await execution on Death Row.
