S1, E4: The 1970s experienced an unprecedented wave of violent, sometimes spectacular crimes. Beginning with the Manson Family trial, America remained on edge throughout the decade as homicide rates soared and Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy and the Son of Sam made gruesome headlines. Children were kidnapped collectively (the Chowchilla school bus hijacking) and because of their celebrity (Patty Heart and John Paul Getty lll). Jimmy Hoffa disappeared and the mayor of San Francisco and Supervisor Harvey Milk were gunned down by a disgruntled colleague. Through it all Americans sought comfort in vigilante films like Death Wish and Dirty Harry. But nothing could shield the nation from the unimaginable horror of Jonestown.
