In 1994 a former pre-med student, Edward Summers, hijacked a jeep near a Nyack, NY, mall. He forced the two young men out of the vehicle, had them lay down in the snow, and shot them both in the back of the head. Michael Falcone died. Scott Nappi survived to point out the attacker in court. Summers was sentenced to 70 years to life in prison.
Scott Nappi says his life has been changed irreparably. Friends and family avoid him. He told the reporter he wanted to know about his attacker’s fate in prison. “Has he been threatened? Has he been beaten up yet? I want to know if he’s suffering yet. That’s what I’d really like. I don’t want him to go there and not be threatened. He’s paying for what he did, but I want him to pay even more.”
The reporter asked Nappi, “Can you see a time when you would ever forgive him?” “No, never. Never. Never, never.”
