What happened to Trisha Meili in Central Park?

Trisha Meili was a 28-year-old investment banker out for a run when she was brutally raped and left for dead in Central Park on April 19, 1989. She suffered a fractured skull and was unconscious for weeks. She remembers nothing about her attack but went on to write a memoir of her recovery called I Am the Central Park Jogger: A Story of Hope and Possibility.
