S1E217 - The Manhunt That Shut Down America's Most Famous Park

This account chronicles the 1990 dismemberment murder of Sam McCullough in Stockton, California, and the painstaking forensic and interviewing work that led detectives to suspect Danny Ray Horning, then traces his 1992 escape from Arizona State Prison into a fifty four day manhunt across Grand Canyon National Park. It documents a sprawling multi agency pursuit involving the FBI, park closures during peak tourist season, kidnapped hostages, a shootout, and an eventual capture near Sedona. The piece ultimately follows the case through to Horning's 1994 conviction and death sentence for McCullough's murder.
