As darkness descends upon the city, so does the Night Stalker - who prowls the streets looking for his prey: children and young people of the 'street.' Under the vigilant eyes of a Task Force of over 100 agents at times and a city in lockdown, the murders continued for two years and a body count of 28 - until a rookie cop under the Chattahoochee River Bridge heard a 'splash.' Many questions would be answered: What was Wayne Williams doing on the bridge at 03:00 a.m.? Will dog hair and fibers found on bodies of the victims be connected to a suspect? Can police trace the unusual Wellman 181b fiber to a source? With police sharp-shooters on the roof-tops, a 'carnival-like-atmosphere' around the courthouse, and eloquent displays of lawyerly talents in the courtroom involving science, CSI effects, pathology, river hydrology, and forensics, a trial not before seen was played out for the jury. It was called "The Case of the Century." Was Wayne Williams the Atlanta 'Night Stalker, ' or was he railroaded? What was the role of the KKK in the murders? You decide!
