Episode 29 The Gainesville Ripper

Between August 25 and August 28 of 1990, five Gainesville, Florida students are found brutally murdered in their off-campus apartments. The University of Florida, the surrounding community colleges, and the city of Gainesville are gripped in terror for days as police work tirelessly to find the killer. But their work was stymied by the media storm that descended on the city, and it took the FBI, Gainesville Police, and a call from a small town in Louisiana to take down a serial killer.
