His deadly spree continues to pick up pace as the FBI are trying to track this deadly predator knowing the longer he is at large the more innocent lives he is destroying along the way.

But as we see here when he slips up by allowing one of his young victims to go free his reign of terror that he spread across the United States will soon come to a bloody end.

But it doesn't end there.

Just imagine what you would do if you were a young girl shopping in a busy mall, it's broad daylight & an attractive normal looking man approaches you.

He tells you that you are pretty, & that you've got what it takes to be a model...

That if he can just take you to a better location to snap some professional photos of you for his agency this will be your ticket to a successful modelling career...

Nowadays we have the benefit of world wide news reaching us in within minutes.

We have the benefit of breaking news stories that spread across world wide media at a rapid pace, & this gives us the benefit of a much higher awareness of all of the dangerous people that are out there, & that are sometimes walking among us..

Thus we are automatically more aware of the dangers that a charming stranger can pose to us.

We have heard of true crime cases & now our knowledge of serial killers may be heightened, & almost unavoidable.

However tragically back in February 1984 innocent young women in 8 different American states did not have the benefit of hindsight.

They were totally unaware that a truly dangerous predator was prowling & hunting for his next victim..

And unfortunately for 12 young women

Christopher Wilder used his convincing ploy to lure, torture, sexually assault & kill his victims.

Thus earning him the moniker 'The Beauty Queen Killer'.

As police searched for Wilder in connection with the disappearances of two young women he went on a six week murder rampage, leaving many women dead in his wake. However he happened to kidnap the wrong girl, 16 year old Tina Risico.

Thanks to Tina's strength & will to survive, she miraculously manages to trick Wilder...

A move that ultimately proved to be this erratic & deadly killers undoing....

It was the 29th of September in 1978, when 15 year old Mary Vincent who had run away from home was trying to hitchhike to Los Angeles, California.

A seemingly friendly looking man eventually pulls up & happily offers her a ride in his van.

As a tired Mary climbs into the passenger seat she has no idea her life was about to change forever.

Or that her story would become an incredible tale of survival against all the odds.

What follows is a truly harrowing, barbaric case of sexual assault & brutal violence, & the nightmarish ordeal she was subjected to leaves young Mary badly maimed for life .

But thanks to her incredible strength, resilience & unwavering will to live she turns her ordeal into a lesson that has since helped so many others.

This case also shines a light on some important questions that are still so relevant today.

Why do authorities believe it is safe to release a dangerous, violent predator from prison after serving a few years because they showed 'good behaviour' whilst incarcerated?

How can offenders that commit such sadistic crimes ever really be properly vetted upon release or prevented from re-offending ?

Sadly, in this case an innocent woman will end up losing her life because an incredibly dangerous killer like Lawrence Singleton was deemed safe enough to walk freely on our streets once again . Despite the huge outrage & uproar from the people of America.

Admirably Mary Vincent has continued to use her own personal experience & how she survived her ordeal to help fight for other victims rights.

She has made a huge difference in campaigning for new laws to keep women safer.

What Mary has managed to achieve in helping victims is a true testament to her unbreakable strength, courage & resilience . For that reason she is still to this day a true hero, & a true inspiration to so many who have heard her story....

One of the most despicable & deplorable acts that a man can commit is to purposely cause the death of a member of his own family. But what about when it is the brutal death of their own child…?

The very thought of this is of course beyond most of our comprehension.

It brings to light the scary possibility that someone who instinctively is supposed to be our biggest protector could actually turn out to be our biggest threat .

And for one young boy in Colorado,13 year old Dylan Redwine, who was due to spend Thanksgiving with his dad in November 2012- that is exactly the awful reality he was confronted with.

Sadly by the time Dylan would have realised how much danger he was really in ,it was too late ….

As his father Mark Redwine spends the rest of his years behind bars we look into what could have caused these sickening crimes.

Could it have been what authorities believe happened that fateful night ?

That Redwine was so overcome with fury at the thought of his deep, dark, secrets being exposed that it sent him over the edge, leading him to savagely kill his own son ?

Judging by the shocking images Dylan had accidentally discovered on his dad’s laptop, it seems that was likely his motive.

How as a father figure could anything ever be bad enough that it allows you to over ride your in built maternal instinct, thus allowing you to murder your own flesh & blood ?

In this episode we take a deep dive into a case that is so heartbreaking. The utterly needless murder of a much loved , happy, popular 13 year old boy who had the world at his feet & a family that loved him & miss him so much to this day …

Sometimes there is nothing better than going for a nice walk to help you relax & enjoy nature whilst escaping the hectic buzz of a city …

This is one of the many reasons why lots of people enjoy hiking in America’s beautiful nature attractions like for example their National Parks.

The beauty & sanctity of which was nearly destroyed back in 2007 when a dangerous predator was discovered to be lurking within these parks .

Serial killer Gary Micheal Hilton began living off the grid & seeking isolated areas like national forests & parks across different states.

He would park up & prowl through the trees, hunting & watching through his binoculars for unsuspecting victims with his dog Dandy at his side to make himself appear more approachable . After launching his brutal sadistic attacks & keeping some victims alive & captive for days he would kill them before dismembering & disposing of their body parts in different areas ,

Although officially charged with 4 murders Hilton is suspected to have killed more victims, as the FBi do not believe he suddenly began killing at the age of 60 .

However if that is the case this would make him the worlds oldest serial killer …

Now with Hilton locked behind bars never to set foot in one of his beloved parks again , it leaves us asking worrying questions…

How safe are we alone or even with a companion on nature trails or in national parks, even if it is broad daylight ?

At what point is it ok to tell a stranger to please leave , & to stop being polite?

Does Hilton have any more victims out there, that he has hidden somewhere in the wilderness waiting to be finally found, identified & brought home to their loved ones ?

And if so, how many …..?
