BTK, Bundy, and the Birth of Criminal Profiling

BTK, Bundy, and the Birth of Criminal Profiling

In 1973, a 7-year-old girl was taken from her tent at a Montana campsite while her family slept. The FBI had no evidence, no witnesses, and no leads, but two agents in a basement at Quantico thought they could describe the killer based on the crime scene alone. What they built would be tested on some of the most notorious cases in American history, including the Ted Bundy manhunt, the Atlanta child murders, and the hunt for BTK. It also raised a question that still doesn't have a clean answer: can you really look at a crime scene and know who did it? This is episode 3 of The Crimes That Built America, a special four-part series on Murder: True Crime Stories hosted by Carter Roy. New episodes come out every Monday, with all four available now, ad-free, on Crime House Plus.
