Fifteen years ago today, Shelly Engelhardt, her daughter Amanda and son Jeff experienced an unimaginable tragedy when Amanda’s then-boyfriend – in a jealousy-fueled attack – stabbed to death three Engelhardt family members in their Hoffman Estates home. They weren’t the only ones traumatized. The heinous attack also affected first responders, including Kasia Cawley, one of the Hoffman Estates police detectives assigned to the case. “It always stays with you,” said Cawley, now Hoffman Estates chief of police. “You’re never going to forget it.”
