It's not the life that Shaun Duvall envisioned when she moved with her husband to the scenic small town of Alma, Wisconsin, in 1980. She was looking forward to enjoying the view from their home overlooking the majestic Mississippi River and perhaps teaching French for a few years.In 1984, she was offered a job teaching high school Spanish.
