The Valley Bride Killer: The Murders of Barbara Jean Jepson and Marianne Pedrotta

After 60-plus years, two unsolved murders in the San Fernando Valley heat back up when a rookie Los Angeles Police Department Cold Case detective is handed the files and realizes the answers were there the entire time. What’s more, those two homicides are only the beginning, as it appears a sadistic serial killer is at work.
