Tammy Crowe’s life story has been presented in one of the episodes of “Dead Silent: The Creek Bottom.” The show documents the life of college student and aspiring teacher Tammy Crowe, who has everything to live for, but one day her life takes an expectedly devastating turn.
Tammy, unknown of what was going to unfold next, was a simple girl on her way to a friend’s dinner party. Little did she know, her life was about to go upside down as she got pulled over by a stranger. What happened next is painful and horrific to listen even.
What Happened to Tammy Crowe?
Tammy Crowe, a native of Clayton County in Georgia, was on her way to a dinner party and meet her then-boyfriend. She stopped at a grocery store to grab some items for the party. While she was in the parking lot, a man approached her to request the use of her jump cables.
The things escalated quickly as Tammy Crowe found herself at knifepoint and forced into the footwell of the passenger seat of her car. The man took Tammy to a secluded wooded place near a creek where he raped her. Tammy found some courage and tried to escape; however, she failed.
From what we saw on the show, the man who kidnapped and raped her tried to kill Tammy twice by slitting her throat but failed both because the blade was blunt. After failing to slit her throat, the man stabbed Tammy 15 times, but she survived it, too. After the rapist saw her breathing, he tried to strangle her with his belt even after the stabs. Thinking she died, the rapist fled, taking her car and money.
