Between 2001 - 2008, a series of murders & attacks on young women horrified Los Angeles, California. The crimes were meticulously planned but ultimately he messes with the wrong girl and after a huge struggle, leaves DNA behind. That DNA links him to a 1993 cold case that should've landed him in jail before he could kill again. When he finally goes to trial, the prosecutor has a very surprising star witness. Stick around to the end because there are some new (and damning) allegations. This is the story of Tricia Pacaccio, Ashley Ellerin, Maria Bruno, and Michelle Murphy.

In 2007, Darlene Ewalt was on the phone with her friend, Chet, planning their upcoming vacation in the Caribbean. After 4 hours on the phone, Chet heard Darlene suddenly say in a trembling voice "oh my God" then it went silent. He screamed her name several times but all he could hear was the sound of leaves crunching as if someone was walking away. At 2am, he rushes over there to find a gruesome scene. This would be the start of a spree no one saw coming...that is until this monster walked into the wrong house...
