Small Sacrifices is a 1989 made for TV movie based
on the best selling true crime book by Ann Rule of the same name.
According to the book and trial evidence, on May 19, 1983 at
approximately 10:48 p.m, Diane Downs drove to McKenzie-Willamette
Hospital near Springfield, Oregon with a gun shot wound to her arm.
She claimed that an unknown assailant attempted to carjack her and
shot her three children: Christie Downs, 8; Cheryl Ann Downs, 7;
and Danny Downs, 3. (In the movie they are known as Karen, Shaunna
and Robby). Her eldest child, Karen, survived and was a witness to
her crime, although she suffered a temporary loss of speech due to
a stroke following the shooting. Karen eventually recovered enough
to speak to the police and to testify in court against her mother.
Diane's son, Danny, was paralysed from the chest down. Diane's
second daughter, Cheryl, did not survive. Diane Downs was
eventually tried and convicted of murder, attempted murder, and
assault.
The film stars Farrah Fawcett, Ryan O'Neal, Gordon
Clapp, John Shea and Emily Perkins and first aired on ABC on
November 12, 1989.
