High Stakes: After a career criminal committed a vehicular homicide in New Orleans, FBI agents tracked him through his habits and addictions. They focused their investigation on gambling communities throughout the country and, when he resurfaced in Atlantic City, authorities used all of their resources to trap an elusive sociopath who claimed that he would never be taken alive.

Home Invaders: In the early 1980’s, a pair of serial bank robbers gained a reputation among law enforcement officials as formidable bandits. Using the same modus operandi, the two men took hostages and emptied bank vaults across the Midwest. After the criminals escaped from police custody, FBI agents familiar with the bandits believed that they would attempt a grand-scale heist. By conducting surveillance on known associates of the criminals, authorities tried to anticipate the next target.

Tracks Of A Killer: In the summer of 1999, Texas was terrorized by a brutal serial killer who traveled by train. The FBI assembled a task force to gather information about the dangerous drifter and create a profile that would help locate him. As they learned that the killer had traveled extensively through the United States and Mexico, the murders became more frequent, and authorities had to cast a dragnet over an entire continent in an effort to catch him.
