Kidnapped and assaulted by serial killer Robert Hansen in 1983, her courage in escaping and reporting the crime led to his eventual capture and conviction. This article delves into her life before, during, and after her ordeal, exploring the impact of her experience and shedding light on her present circumstances. On June 13, 1983, Cindy Paulson was kidnapped and raped, her life threatened by Robert Hansen . Her eventual getaway was central to Hansen ’s ultimate capture and confession to the murder of dozens of women. Though it would be another four months or so until Hansen was finally arrested for his 12-year-long serial killing spree, Cindy Paulson’s escape and resulting story gave police the break they needed to finally identify a suspect in the dozens of unsolved murders that took place throughout Anchorage. Where is Cindy Paulson Today? According to a reliable source, Sgt. Glenn Flothe revealed that Cindy and her friend stayed at a safe house. On the night of Hansen ’s conviction, Glenn and his wife, Cherry, took Cindy for dinner at the Corsair. The next day, she left Anchorage and got involved with prostitution again. Despite being handcuffed, Paulson fled to a nearby road where she flagged down a truck driver, who took her to the police station. Her brave escape ultimately led to the capture and conviction of Hansen . The Serial Killer’s Trophy Room: One of the most chilling aspects of the case was the discovery of Robert Hansen ’s “trophy room.”. Robert Christian Hansen operated as a serial killer in Alaska for twelve years before a 17 year old prostitute named Cindy Paulson was found running near naked down a road, handcuffed, and helped by a truck driver. Rescuing Cindy Paulson was always a mission to rescue her from herself. When Cindy was finally ready to come in from the cold, Flothe sprang to action. “Once Flothe managed to gain Cindy ’ s confidence, he knew it was imperative to do all in his power to protect her as a witness. He would soon find out what a difficult task that could be. At one point, Cindy ran away from her pimp, and another woman took her in, all of which was a relief to Flothe. Under this family’s influence Cindy started to clean up her act.
