In 2011 Karen and David Swift had been married for 22 years, and together they had four children. Karen was described as a devoted and loving mother whose world revolved around children.
Karen and David’s marriage was far from perfect. After years of infidelity and controlling behavior from David, Karen had finally decided enough was enough. She filed for divorce in October of 2011, ready to start a new chapter for herself and her two young daughters. But sadly, she didn’t get that new start.
