Bonnie Joan was the daughter of Paul and Joan Garland who resided in Scarsdale, New York, one of America's most prestigious residential communities.
Bonnie, like many of her neighbors and classmates, was raised in a family of high achievers.
Bonnie was a natural for the Ivy League set: the daughter of a Yale alumnus, an international background, multi-lingual and a graduate of the exclusive Madeira School.

 Books Of The Times - New York Times
WHEN Richard Herrin, a senior at Yale University, and Bonnie Garland, a freshman, met in the very early hours of Nov. 2, 1974, they could have testified to the possibility of love at first sight.
Richard responded by bashing in Bonnie's skull and neck with a hammer.
Bonnie was a product of the Madeira School, a rich kid blessed with a clear soprano voice.

Entertaining him at her parents' house in Westchester County, Bonnie gently told Richard that she didn't want to date him exclusively, and then she went to sleep, expecting that he would join her.
After pulling the hammer out of Bonnie's head, Herrin drove aimlessly, examining his conscience, deciding whether he wanted himself to die (he decided, without much struggle, that he didn't), and finally at daybreak surrendered to a priest called Father Tartaglia at an upstate church.
Bonnie's dead already-we can still help Richard." I told my students the next semester that I had dropped friends for all sorts of reasons-- casual cruelty or even just rudeness to others-and not one of my ex-friends had actually murdered anyone.

 Blueprint for Social Justice - Loyola University New Orleans
Bonnie had been trying to tell Richard gently that while she would always love him, she wanted to date other men.
Richard had an extremely competent defense attorney, Jack Litmann, who persuaded the jury that he was also a victim and that Bonnie’s rejection of him coupled with his disadvantaged background and feelings of inadequacy constituted “extreme emotional duress.” Richard began to believe it himself.
Face to face with the Garlands, Richard would not have been able to maintain the posture of “well, it’s too bad, but it’s a shame to waste two lives.” Perhaps you will think a direct confrontation between offender and family members of the victim is impossible or inappropriate in a murder case.

 CRIME AND PUNISHMENT? - New York Times
No, ''The Killing of Bonnie Garland: A Question of Justice,'' by Willard Gaylin, the psychoanalyst who heads up The Hastings Center, an institute that studies society, ethics and the life sciences.
Though Dr. Gaylin's own tilt is toward the victim, his method is to reconstruct his largely oral history from the trial record, letters, documents and in-depth interviews with the defendant and his friends, the defense and prosecuting attorneys, the various witnesses on both sides and Bonnie Garland's bitter parents.
While Bonnie is sleeping, he hits her with the claw hammer until, in his words, ''her head split open like a watermelon.'' When the time comes to take his own life, he drives 100 miles north and turns himself in at a church.

Herrin unquestionably caused the Garlands more pain than they can hope to avenge by any means; their only recourse seems to be to hurt him as much as possible.
If Herrin begins to think he's being punished not because he killed Bonnie Garland but because funeral and medical costs were high, the already much-debated effect of a jail term on future actions will be further confused.
The Garlands' long struggle with the courts to put Herrin in jail may explain and even excuse their desire to hit him as hard as they can.
