Kristi Johnson was shopping at a mall in Los Angeles when a man invited her to a photo shoot for the next Bond film. That afternoon, the 21-year-old got into her little white sportscar and drove to the shoot location up in the Hollywood Hills. She was never seen alive again. In Dateline’s latest podcast, Keith Morrison takes us to the city of dreams for the story of a smooth-talking predator who lured young women into a nightmare with promises of fame and fortune. It’s the story of how he evaded justice for years. But most of all, it’s the story of a group of women who banded together to lock him up for good.

Customer Reviews
Another great Dateline podcast series!
I remember this case when it happened, I lived in LA at the time. I had no idea of how things have unfolded since then. I can’t believe such a violent sex offender will have continuous chances for parole, that’s terrifying. Thank you for waking people up to this, I hope California is paying attention.
Thriller
Keith Morrison is the man ! Great reporting
My least favorite Dateline series
Sadly, this was a disappointing series compared to others done by Keith and Dateline. The story, while incredibly sad, just did not have the robustness and meat required for a 6-episode series. The final episode felt completely disconnected from the main story and was more about an ego trip for the main female contributor.
