On February 17, 1974, just past midnight in Fort Worth, Texas, 12-year-old Jim Walker is jolted awake by the sound of screeching tires in his front yard. He sees Rodney McCoy, his sister Carla’s boyfriend, stumbling toward the Walkers front door—badly hurt and covered in blood. But, one thing is immediately clear: 17-year-old Carla is nowhere to be found. This night marks the beginning of Jim’s nearly half-century-long battle to get justice for his sister and finally take down a serial killer hiding in plain sight.

“I was just trying to protect my organs”

On the early morning of July 23rd, 2013 in South Boston, Alexandra Cruz is violently attacked on her way to the Dunkin' where she works, but the man disappears into the night before cops can catch him. Just a few hours later, another young woman, Amy Lord, is caught on multiple ATM cameras all across town, emptying her bank account—she is badly injured, and with a masked man, who’s carjacked her black SUV.
