Wild Crime: Blood Mountain

Experienced hiker Meredith Emerson goes missing on Blood Mountain, Georgia and a massive search begins. Investigators soon learn of two other missing hiker cases that have ended in murder. Has a serial killer taken Meredith? Can she be rescued in time?

Serial killer Gary Hilton has killed two women in National Forests; now he’s taken Meredith Emerson. So far he’s escaped twice, but as police search a dumpster full of bloody clothes, Hilton is sighted nearby: can they catch him before he kills Meredith?

Hilton is caught, but where’s Meredith? Bloody clothes and Hilton’s confession confirm that she’s dead. Investigators make a deal with the devil, offering no death penalty if he takes them to her body. But what about the other dead and missing hikers?

Georgia sentences Hilton to life; now Florida tries him for killing Cheryl Dunlap. We reveal his childhood and meet others who vanished; are they his victims too? We end with investigators talking about Meredith’s legacy and how the case affected them.
