Borderline

In 1985, in Texas, Jayson Woodward stepped outside of her home and was abducted, raped, and held hostage, until she managed to escape her assailant. He was captured on the border between the United States and Mexico. Three unknown armed men would later kidnap Jayson's rapist from a Mexican jail, and bring him back to Texas, where he was found in a park, in his underwear, by Texas law enforcement. An incredible true crime story of a terrible crime that became an international incident, as well as a remarkable portrait of courage and an unexpected spiritual awakening, as Jayson went through it all and came out the other side. Hosted by Paget Brewster (Criminal Minds).
