The Friday the Thirteenth Reckoning

Serial killer Christopher Wilder was ten minutes from the Canadian border. If the passenger door of his stolen car had been unlocked, he would have made it. This is the inside story of Friday the 13th, 1984 — the day the biggest manhunt in American history ended on the forecourt of a small-town gas station, and the two off-duty troopers who did what the FBI couldn't. We walk the road he drove. We stand on the spot where he died. We talk to the photographer who captured it all. The day Christopher Wilder died, the families of the women he took thought they would finally get their answers. They didn't. The chase ended that afternoon. The story didn't. And what we have uncovered since is about to change everything.Contact us if you have had an encounter with Christopher Wilder or have information about him or any of his crimes: info@catchingevil.comFollow us:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/catchingevil/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61582973930611TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@catchingevilWebsite: https://www.catchingevil.com/post/the-mystery-of-tina-risico-the-stunning-courage-of-dawnette-wiltJoin us and support these not-for-profits:US Survivors of Homicide Inc - https://www.survivorsofhomicide.com/Yesterday Today Tomorrow Women Inc - https://www.yttwomen.org/AusMary’s House 1800 002 111 https://www.maryshouse.org.au/about/Credits:HostsAndy Byrne Mark LlewellynAudio ProductionSam Blacker - The Podcast ButlerResourcesThe Pretty Girl Killer by Andrew Byrne - courtesy of Penguin Random HouseThanks to Pro Podcast Studios, SydneyCatching Evil is hosted on Acast.
