     From May of 2005 to August of 2009 the bodies of 8 young women were discovered.  All lived high risk lifestyles, all seemed to have some connection to one another and all were from the Jennings area.  

     The investiagtion stired up much fear, anger and controversy. At one point leading law enforcement to submit to DNA exams in order to put to rest rumors that members of thier own ranks were involved and as a result, slowing the investigation.  

     A task force that includes the FBI had been formed to help solve the cases but as of today, law enforcement seem no closer to apprehending a suspect than the day the first body was discovered. Eventually some of the victims families hired a local private investigator to do what they felt law enforcement either could not or would not do, catch the killer(s).

     Tonight's episode will deal with an overview of the case and discussion with criminal profiler, Maurice Godwin. Godwin was retained by local law enforcement earlier in the case to assist with the investigation. Godwin's is also the authot of Hunting Serial Predators 2nd Edition

     We will also be joined by Stacy Dittrich. Stacy Dittrich is an award-winning 17-year law enforcement officer, author, media consultant, and former detective specializing in sex crimes. Stacy's latest book is Murder Mountain
