Woody Overton revisits the terrifying 2002 D.C. sniper attacks, when John Allen Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo randomly shot people throughout the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area. On October 24, investigators arrested the pair as they slept inside their modified Chevrolet Caprice, ending weeks of fear. Woody examines the investigation, the victims, the evidence that connected the killers to the shootings and the sentences that followed.In Worldwide Crime, Woody discusses a Canadian fraud investigation involving former Major League Baseball player Rich Butler and his wife, Michelle, who are accused of collecting approximately $60,000 from families for youth baseball training services that were never provided.The episode then turns to the heartbreaking 2017 murder of Savanna LaFontaine-Greywind, an eight-months-pregnant North Dakota woman who disappeared after visiting an upstairs neighbor. Investigators eventually discovered her newborn daughter alive inside the neighbors&#39; apartment, while Savanna&#39;s body was later recovered from the Red River. Woody examines the convictions of Brooke Crews and William Hoehn and the devastating consequences for Savanna&#39;s family.Finally, Woody explores the wrongful conviction of Martin “Marty” Tankleff, who spent approximately 17 years imprisoned for the murders of his parents, Seymour and Arlene Tankleff. A disputed confession, allegations of investigative misconduct and new witness testimony eventually led to his conviction being overturned. Marty later became an attorney, turning his experience with the justice system into a career helping others.<h2></h2>True Crime Time For, Woody Overton, Real Life Real Crime, October 24 2026, D.C. sniper attacks, Beltway snipers, John Allen Muhammad, Lee Boyd Malvo, Linda Franklin, Montgomery County Maryland, Charles Moose, Savanna LaFontaine-Greywind, Savanna Greywind murder, Brooke Crews, William Hoehn, Haisley Jo, Fargo North Dakota, pregnant woman murdered, newborn kidnapping, Martin Tankleff, Marty Tankleff, Seymour Tankleff, Arlene Tankleff, false confession, wrongful conviction, Jerry Steuerman, Joey Creedon, Peter Kent, New York exoneration, Rich Butler, Michelle Butler, Ontario youth baseball fraud, Al Capone, John Dillinger, Mary Pearcey, Robert Pickton, Kray twins, Scott Peterson, true crime<h2></h2><ul><li>October 24, 2002: The capture of John Allen Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo</li><li>The D.C. sniper investigation, victims and modified Chevrolet Caprice</li><li>Mary Pearcey, Al Capone, John Dillinger and other October 24 crime history</li><li>Canadian youth baseball fraud allegations against former MLB player Rich Butler and his wife</li><li>Savanna LaFontaine-Greywind&#39;s disappearance while eight months pregnant</li><li>The discovery of Savanna&#39;s newborn daughter and the recovery of her body</li><li>Brooke Crews&#39; and William Hoehn&#39;s convictions and sentences</li><li>Martin Tankleff&#39;s arrest and disputed confession after his parents&#39; murders</li><li>New evidence, alternative suspects and the overturning of Tankleff&#39;s conviction</li><li>Tankleff&#39;s wrongful-conviction settlements and subsequent legal career</li></ul><h2></h2>The D.C. sniper attacks demonstrated how random violence can terrorize an entire community. Investigators from numerous agencies worked together to identify and apprehend John Allen Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo, bringing an end to a shooting spree that killed ten people and wounded three others in the Washington metropolitan area.Savanna LaFontaine-Greywind&#39;s murder was an unimaginable betrayal of trust. She entered a neighbor&#39;s apartment expecting to help with a simple task and never returned. Although her daughter survived, Savanna&#39;s family was left to grieve a young mother whose life and future were stolen.A confession is not always proof of guilt. Martin Tankleff&#39;s case illustrates the danger of relying on a disputed confession without sufficient corroborating evidence. After spending approximately 17 years in prison, his conviction was overturned and the charges were ultimately dismissed.Justice requires protecting the innocent as well as holding the guilty accountable. Woody emphasizes that preventing wrongful convictions is just as important as securing convictions against those who commit violent crimes.Never give up, never surrender.
