I was unwanted, beaten, sold, swapped, photographed, filmed, left for dead, corrupted, blamed, betrayed, ignored and orphaned. But I was also born with a fire inside me. I call it my Phoenix Fire.

Under litet drygt 16 timmar - med början på kvällen den 8 juni 1995 - förövade tre unga män en serie grova brott som i flera avseenden saknar motstycke.
