In this bonus episode, we look at Christopher Wilder’s prolific history of targeting women before the crime spree where he abducted Tina Risico. Three women Wilder pursued in 1982 and 1983 describe how he played on their dreams of becoming models, but pushed their boundaries and tried to control them. A journalist who pieced together Wilder’s long criminal history describes how he slipped through criminal justice systems in two countries over three decades.
