The plan to use Deputy Swanson as a decoy to lure out the Nightstalker failed miserably.

Swanson was stabbed. The Nightstalker got away. And although Sheriff Press finally had confirmation that Tim Meeks was, indeed, the real identity of the Nightstalker, we were no closer to catching him.

Until that night, when we did, in fact, catch Tim Meeks. Red handed. In the cabin of a woman named "Cassandra Royal." 

But what we didn't realize was that catching Tim Meeks would not be the end of this case.

This is part 16 of the 8th season of Crime Adjacent: the untold story of the Michigan Nightstalker.
