Randy Woodfield: The I-5 Killer (Part 1 of 2)

Over the course of just 11 weeks, beginning in December of 1980 and coming to a close in late February 1981, vicious reports of sexual assault, murder, robberies, and kidnappings were occurring along the I-5 corridor stretching from Washington to California. The perpetrator was dubbed as the I-5 Killer. 

In Part 1, Kendra will introduce you to Randy Woodfield and discuss how a young, promising athlete with ambitions to play for the Green Bay Packers took a dark turn to become one of the most dangerous serial killers in American history.
