Summary

Josh Mankiewicz and Andrea Canning sit down to talk about Andrea’s newest episode, “Dark Intentions.” In 1996, the murder and sexual assault of two women in the same apartment complex rattled the city of Arlington, Texas and stumped police. But when two other women from the area survive sexual assaults, police find evidence that connects all four crimes. Andrea tells Josh what she learned from the women who survived their brutal attacks, and she describes the involved investigation that finally cracked the case. Andrea also plays a podcast-exclusive clip and Dateline producer Haylee Barber joins in to answer viewer questions from social media. If you or someone you know has experienced sexual assault, call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 800-656-4673 or visit online.rainn.org Listen to the full episode of “Dark Intentions” here: https://link.chtbl.com/dl_darkintentions
