A quiet college town. A trusted uniform. And a crime that didn’t begin in Washington. In January 1979, two young women accepted what seemed like a routine house-sitting job in Bellingham, Washington. By the next day, both were dead—strangled inside an isolated home overlooking the bay. What investigators uncovered next revealed a predator whose violence stretched far beyond the Pacific Northwest, linking a local crime scene to one of the most infamous murder sprees in American history. This documentary traces how authority became a weapon, how warning signs were missed, and how a single case unraveled something much larger than anyone expected.
