In February of 1984, Australian- American serial rapist and killer, Christopher Wilder, embarked on a seven-week, cross-country killing spree, abducting and torturing at least twelve young women and girls who were aspiring to be models, and killing at least eight of them. Having previously committed numerous rapes and sexual assaults in both Australia and The United States dating back to 1963, Wilder had developed his methods for victimizing young attractive females by enticing most of them with the promise of taking their photographs for modeling jobs. His sinister misdeeds would earn him the nick names “The Beauty Queen Killer” or “The Snapshot Killer”. So, did the justice system in both Australia and The United States fail at keeping a known violent rapist from committing such a deadly crime spree?
