In 1990, three year old, Courtney Smith, is taken in the middle of the night from her bed.   The next day, her family makes a devastating discovery.  The police arrest Levon Brooks for her murder.  Eighteen months later, three year old, Christine Jackson, is also taken from her home in the middle of the night.  The crimes are extremely similar in nature — even down to the age of the girls.   Could it be a copy cat killer?  A horrific coincidence? Or did the cops get it wrong… twice?
