Killer Files: Abduction & Murder in South Carolina

A quiet southern town finds itself gripped by dread when local girls start vanishing. An elusive serial killer is at large, pressuring a grieving family while staying ahead of the police. Each day he goes free, the risk of another victim grows. He hunted in the open, snatching young women and girls from their own yards in full daylight. He also enjoyed cruelty, calling a victim's relatives to mock them and crush their hopes. Investigators knew he looked like any ordinary member of the community, yet his need for notice kept pulling him toward attention. That tension between hiding and wanting to be seen might be the clue that finally unmasks him.
