Hunter’s Target (S03E16): At first it seemed like a tragic hunting accident when 18-year-old David Wilkey was shot to death in rural Virginia in 1983. A tenacious insurance investigator suspected foul play, but he had no direct evidence. Two years later, a man contacted North Carolina FBI agents with a complex story of conspiracy and murder-for-hire: he claimed he had been hired to murder Wilkey’s killer. The FBI needed to develop cooperating witnesses and wire informants to stop a man willing to kill his friends for profit.

Manhunt (S03E15): When a California man was found dismembered in 1990, police suspected a local burglar, but they couldn’t find him. Six months later, he was caught robbing an Arizona bank and sentenced to life. But prison couldn’t hold him for long, and within a year he escaped. The FBI would lead a multi-agency manhunt for a killer on a desperate run through the tourist regions of the west.

Deadly Stranger (S03E12): Beginning in California in 1995, a serial killer targeted vulnerable women. At first charming and generous, he quickly became violent. He was brutal with his kills and quick in his getaways. Traveling across the country, he struck in Mississippi, Louisiana and Florida. The FBI and local police needed to stop this cross-country killer before more women fell victim to his insatiable rage.
