The end of May 1980, Dorothy Jane Scott attended a business meeting at the end of which, she and another woman she worked with took their coworker to the hospital to have a bite on his hand treated. When she went to pull the car around to pick her coworkers up from the front of the hospital, they never saw her again. As they stepped outside to wait for her, they saw her car driving fast and erratically through the parking lot and onto the highway. That was the last time Dorothy Scott was seen alive.

She has not been seen since. Part 1 of "Kristen's Law" walks through who Kristen was — the Charlotte-raised inaugural Park Scholar at NC State, in San Francisco for a summer photography course at UC Berkeley and working two jobs — and reconstructs the day she vanished, the seven-day delay before the Oakland Police Department opened an investigation, the bloodhound trail that ended near Sutro Heights Park, and the early moves the Modafferi family made when they flew west on Friday, June 27, and were told to come back Monday.

In the early 1990s, New York City’s nightlife was a vibrant escape, but for a specific community, it became a hunting ground. This week, we dive into the chilling case of Richard Rogers, notoriously known as the "Last Call Killer."

Operating under the cover of the city’s bustling piano bars and gay lounges, Rogers was a master of the "ordinary." He was a mild-mannered nurse by day who spent his evenings befriending men, buying them drinks, and offering them rides home—rides that would ultimately lead to their gruesome ends.
