An ordinary Omaha family
Our story takes us back to January 1997 in Omaha, Nebraska, where Thomas and Marlene Woracek were raising an average, young family. They had three daughters, two of whom are twins. Lindsay at the time was in fifth grade, and Jennifer and Kourtney were three years old. They lived in a house just a mile away from the city’s business district.
Happy and church-going
The Woraceks never bothered anyone. They weren’t well-off, but they were certainly content and happy. They were church-goers and they were often seen at their local school’s parent-teacher meetings. The twin girls would often tag along, with Marlene taking care of them while Thomas was taking care of business inside.
