Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong examines the case of Mack Ray Edwards. Between 1953 and 1970, Edwards killed at least six children in Los Angeles County, California, using his career in highway construction to hide their bodies – and his trail of murder. He ultimately turned himself in for his crimes, citing a guilty conscience…but was that truly the case? Candice explores how Edwards went undetected for so long, why he targeted children, and what the actual motive behind his confession could have been.
