Scary Attacks | 48 Hours Full Episodes

In January 2000, college freshmen Danielle and Dan were abducted at gunpoint by William Babner. After being driven to a remote location, Danielle was sexually assaulted, and both were shot in the head and pushed into a river. Miraculously, both survived. Dan's ability to provide a detailed description of the assailant, his truck, and even his Rottweiler, Sam, was instrumental in Babner's swift identification and capture.

Danielle recounts being shot and falling into the river, then waking up and finding Dan alive. Dan's detailed description of the perpetrator's age, appearance, clothing, weapon, dog (Sam), and beat-up red pickup truck with a white cap, including items in the back like a toolbox and baseball bat, led to a photo lineup where he positively identified William Babner. Police later found all described items during the search warrant.

Israel Keys was a serial killer who lived a seemingly normal life as a construction business owner in Anchorage, Alaska, with a girlfriend and daughter. He meticulously planned his murders, often traveling thousands of miles, renting cars, and using pre-buried 'kill caches' of weapons and tools to commit crimes in random locations. His victims were selected without prior connection, and he often disposed of bodies to prevent discovery, even going on family vacations immediately after committing murders.

Keys confessed to killing Samantha Koig, Bill and Lorraine Courier, and Deborah Feldman. FBI agents describe his 'kill caches' containing items like .22 ammunition and silencers. He confessed to strangling Samantha Koig and dismembering her body, disposing of it in Mantusa Lake while ice fishing, then going on a Caribbean vacation. He also confessed to flying to Chicago, driving to Vermont, using a buried cache to kill the Couriers, and leaving their bodies in a demolished farmhouse.

Andrew Cunanan, initially a charismatic social climber with a genius IQ, descended into a violent spree after losing his wealthy partner and facing personal decline. Over a period of 12 days in 1997, he murdered four men across three states—Jeff Trail, David Madson, Lee Miglin, and William Reese—before killing fashion icon Gianni Versace in Miami Beach. His motives remain largely speculative, but his actions suggest a pattern of revenge, grandiosity, and a desire for notoriety.

Cunanan flew to Minneapolis on a one-way ticket, where he murdered Jeff Trail with a hammer and David Madson with Trail's gun. He then killed wealthy real estate developer Lee Miglin in Chicago and cemetery caretaker William Reese in New Jersey, stealing their vehicles. He was featured on 'America's Most Wanted' and the FBI's 10 Most Wanted list before killing Versace. He committed suicide on a houseboat, using the same gun taken from Jeff Trail.

Despite Israel Keys' suicide in jail, the FBI continues to investigate his crimes, believing he was responsible for at least 11 murders, with seven victims still unidentified. Keys left behind blood-drawn skulls in his cell, which investigators interpret as a tally of his victims. Clues point to potential victims in Washington State (Lake Crescent), Wyoming (Green River), New York (Deborah Feldman), and even Canada ('Canadians don't count').

FBI agents discuss the 11 skulls drawn in Keys' blood found in his cell, believing it represents his total victim count. Keys mentioned a victim in New York, and investigators linked this to Deborah Feldman. He also indicated a body was sunk in Lake Crescent, Washington, and mentioned burying a cache near the Green River in Wyoming. His statement 'Canadians don't count' when asked about murders in Canada suggests further international crimes.
