Author Carolina Sarassa is an award-winning news reporter, now anchor of
the national nightly news for Latino network MundoFox. She was the
first to break the story of the shocking murder, and became the
journalist who forged the closest association with the key players,
including Flores’ roommate, parents and former boyfriends. “Dancing on
Her Grave: The Murder of a Las Vegas Showgirl” brings Sarassa’s
unparalleled chronicle of events to life, providing readers with a
detailed depiction of
this tragic true crime.
But beyond the investigation, and beyond the trial is a moving
cautionary tale of one of society’s most urgent social problems –
domestic violence.
An ambiguous text message Debbie left behind for her mother led
authorities to her charismatic boyfriend, Jason “Blu” Griffith, a fellow
Vegas dancer. When the details of the crime unfolded, Blu was hiding a
terrible secret, one that involved a rental van, bags of cement, two
plastic tubs, and a handsaw. Debbie’s dreams of a dazzling career
became a nightmare. How could a girl with such passion and promise come
to an end so violent and unexpected? In time, the truth would reveal a
life more tumultuous than believed – and what exactly transpired on
Debbie’s tragic final day will blow readers minds.
