In the early hours of December 13, 2007, 47-year-old Nancy Bochicchio and her daughter, 8-year-old Joey Bochicchio-Hauser were found tied up and shot to death from point-blank range in their black 2007 Chrysler Aspen SUV, parked in a merchandise pick-up area on the south side of Sears, after Town Center Mall security workers saw the occupied car with its engine running in an otherwise empty lot shortly after midnight.
