The next thing she knew, she woke up in her room naked and penniless.Ĭonway reflects on murderous notions she harbored by explaining that she “snapped” and became a “mother bear.” She rented a room at a “nice” hotel in Orlando and went to the bar to meet him, started drinking, and blacked out. At one point, she got some money and thought she was indeed meeting a hitman. She said she would ask complete strangers, like bartenders and taxi drivers, how to hire a hitman. “I was so messed up, I didn’t know what to do. “But my ulterior plan was to get all my money out of my 401(k) plan and get revenge against my baby sister, your mother, your father, and both of you, even Ali,” she confessed.

However, the murder was never solved, and as a new docuseries reveals, there existed beneath Beach's grief a layer of tension, and even a sense of betrayal, between sisters. "We don't want it forgotten," she said, adding that "everybody wants this solved." She vowed to keep her sister's memory alive. ![]() ![]() The following year, Beach was present at another vigil, where she called her slain sister "loving, kind, giving, thoughtful, caring, a wonderful mother, a wonderful sister," the New Haven Register reported in 2012.
