The Deranged Gunman: A Cross-Country Chase to Stop a Killer

True Crime

About this episode

In 1986, the point-blank murder of a police officer by a psychotic killer ignited one of the most intense manhunts in Midwest history. But the cop-killing was just the beginning. As the deranged gunman embarked on a bloody rampage across state lines, his trail of abductions and murders grew, revealing a spree with no end in sight. This is the story of the FBI's high-stakes race against time, as agents employed every resource to track the unpredictable killer, decode his motives, and put a stop to his violence before another innocent life was claimed.
