Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:02):
What they say is the start of everything really wasn't
to start. It at least started when they shot me.
It was a Thursday night. It was September fifth, in
two thousand and two. I locked up the restaurants at
the alarm. We all walked to our cars. I got
in the driver's side, shut the door, and before I

(00:26):
could do anything, the window to my left exploded. Georgia
Emergency nine one one way. You're the one. At that
time it was the owner. I think you got shot robbed.
I heard the guest joke with the robbery and a shooting.

(00:50):
Shut the ambulance from the police officer on the way
who hit there? I have no idea. Back then, they
killed the five people in one day, and that's when
the whole panics started. I think it's fair to say
all help work this. It was actually williant, So my
mother wouldn't he believe the house? Everybody was cautious. Well,

(01:11):
you could be a cost cop pumping gas and it's
the last day on Earth. I'm Tony Harris. In the
fall of two thousand two, I was a local news
anchor in my hometown of Baltimore, Maryland. On October three,
reports fled it in about a series of random shootings
in the DC area. People looked to journalists like me
for answers, but we didn't have them, and that terrible

(01:34):
day was only the beginning. The attacks grew into one
of the most disturbing crime sprees in the history of
our country. She found out about this tower card and
this message to police. They were going to continue to
kill people until they were stopped. He talked about extorting
money from the U. S. Government to go create a
utopian society where he could bring his children and other

(01:56):
young lost souls. I do believe he was ray washed
for life of a better term. He listened to tape
when he was falling asleep, giving him subliminal suggestion that
there was essentially a war going on between blacks and white.
As far as I'm concerned, he was a psychopathic, cold
blooded killer that can never walk the street again. But now,

(02:20):
eighteen years later, the Supreme Court will rule on the
sniper's case and the convicted killer could one day walk free.
So I began reinvestigating this case, and what I discovered
shocked me. On this season of Monster, what really happened
and should the killer ever be given a second chance?
