The Confession

After two decades, the GRK signs a historic plea deal where he offers to confess his horrific crimes in exchange for sparing his life. The secret, five-month confession would test the will of the seasoned detectives who had worked the case for decades before the GRK, a pathological liar and remorseless killer, would finally share the details of how he murdered 49 teens and young women.

Hitchhiking was a rite of passage for teens in the 70s in the beautiful Pacific Northwest – until a charming predator turned their freedom into fear. Some managed to escape him, but police believe this good-looking stranger was responsible for the kidnapping, torture and murders of many more young women. The grieving families of his victims refuse to let their daughters and sisters be forgotten, and those who survived their run-ins with this killer lived to tell their own tales. Together, their stories paint a chilling portrait of a killer who hid in plain sight. This is the chronicle of lost girls, found strength, and the fight to shine new light on all-but-forgotten cases. Stolen Voices of Dole Valley is the story of a serial killer you’ve never heard of -- and the victims and survivors you’ll never forget.
