The string of murders that eventually led to the realization that a serial killer was on the loose in Baton Rouge Louisiana began  on when the body of 41 year-old Gina Wilson Green was found murdered in her home near the LSU campus on September 24, 2001.  But by the time Derrick Todd Lee was finally unveiled as the terror known as the "Baton Rouge Serial Killer," it became clear that his trail of rape, torture and murder almost certainly began much earlier - perhaps a decade beforehand.  In Part Two of her exploration of this most fascinating serial killer, Melissa details the discovery of each of Lee's victims, going backward and forward in time to reveal a maddening series of misunderstandings and misreadings of the killer's basic identity until DNA technology -  Lee's sole survivor and her son - and an outside-the-box-thinking Chief of Police in a nearby town finally spun a web around him and brought him down.  Equally fascinating is how the varied methods of murder used by Lee confounded behavioral scientists for years - for the simple reason that he was simply just too stupid to try to fool the behavioral scientists!  Truly instructive and truly chilling.
