Driven to Kill: On February 3, 1990, a 14-year-old girl ran away from her mother’s home and disappeared without a trace. Her mother hoped Pasadena, Texas police could find her before it was too late. Six months later, their worst fear was realized when a farmer discovered the young girl’s remains in an Illinois barn. The FBI was called in to help. Agents tracked down a trucker who they believed was responsible for 50 more deaths. Investigators knew they had to stop this menace of the highways.
Deadly Obsession: When a Delaware woman vanished in 1996, family and friends discovered her secret life. The appointments secretary to the Governor had carried on an illicit affair with a wealthy married man. Agents suspected that her powerful ex-lover was responsible, but they had little physical evidence to support their theory. Investigators never found the woman’s body or the murder weapon. The FBI’s only hope was to go undercover, and turn brother against brother.
First and Kennedy Street Crew: In the early ‘90s, Washington, D.C. police were losing the battle against street gangs who enforced their territories with lethal violence.

In the fall of 1994, a gang member walked into police headquarters, killed two FBI agents and one detective, then turned the gun on himself. Authorities vowed to bring the entire gang to justice, but discovered that the leader had fled to Africa. Agents were uncertain if they could find the fugitive and bring him in.
