Snipers And Triple Murders | DOUBLE EPISODE | THE FBI FILES

Video Description

Moving Target: On August 20, 1980, an unseen sniper murdered two young black men as they jogged with two white women in Salt Lake City, Utah. Police threw all their resources into finding a killer who left almost no clues behind. They met with FBI agents and detectives from around the country who had similar racially motivated sniper slayings. A month later, working off little more than a possible license plate number, police in Kentucky arrested Joseph Paul Franklin but the man escaped from custody. The FBI placed Franklin on their Ten Most Wanted list, and an intense manhunt began. The white supremacist killer, responsible for as many as 20 murders, was arrested two months later by FBI agents in Tampa, Florida. Deadly Mission: Chevie and Cheyne Kehoe gained national attention after a videotaped shoot-out with state and local officers in Wilmington, Ohio on February 15, 1997. The officers were unharmed, but the brothers escaped and fled the state. The FBI tracked the two armed men, learning that Chevie and an associate, Daniel Lee, were suspects in a 1996 triple murder in Arkansas. The men were part of a white supremacist group intent on founding a whites-only sovereign state in America, and had been linked to crimes from armed robbery to kidnapping. Four months after the shoot-out, FBI agents arrested the brothers, who had been hiding in Utah while continuing to build an arsenal. The FBI Files is an American docudrama that takes a look behind the scenes of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's crime laboratory. Real FBI cases are recounted through reenactments and interviews, due to the sensitive nature of the show, viewer discretion is advised. #TheFBIFiles #TrueCrime #the90s
