They planned it in prison. Then they built the van. Now the toolbox is open… and the girls are disappearing.

In Part 2 of this chilling true crime series, Lawrence Bittaker and Roy Norris take their deadly prison pact on the road. Their custom-built torture van—dubbed “Murder Mac”—becomes a rolling chamber of horrors as the pair begins hunting young women across Southern California in 1979.

What follows is one of the most sadistic and disturbing killing sprees in American history. Hitchhikers are lured in, driven to remote mountain roads, and subjected to unimaginable torture using pliers, vise grips, sledgehammers, and ice picks. One victim’s final screams were captured on audio tape—a recording so horrific it still shocks even veteran detectives today.

In this episode:

• The first abduction: Lucinda “Cindy” Schaefer
• The brutal murders of Andrea Hall, Jackie Gilliam & Jacqueline Lamp
• The terrifying Halloween night attack on Shirley Ledford
• How their own recordings would eventually help bring them down

If Part 1 left you stunned by their plan, Part 2 will leave you horrified by its execution.
