Summary
Wednesday, October 2, 2002.
Aspen Hill, Maryland. Northgate Plaza.
5:20 p.m.
Inside Michael’s craft supply store, cashier Ann Chapman rings up another customer. Then it happens. A loud crack; a gust of wind; the light in register five goes dark.
Over the next 23 days, the entire DC area will be thrust into a reign of terror unprecedented in American history. Sniper attacks targeting and murdering everyday citizens will bring the entire region to its knees as a nation still reeling from the recent attacks of 9/11 and the anthrax scare is forced to confront a new type of brutal assault - this time in their own backyard. As law enforcement grapples with the mass carnage and chaos, the media’s ravenous 24-hour cycle amplifies the very real fear while steadily pumping new theories and bad leads onto a paralyzed public desperate for it all to end.
But who can stop it? And exactly how?
Call Me God is the never-before-told story of the fascinating and turbulent investigation that led to the diabolical and elusive killers' capture - one that pitted protocol against instinct, sacred institutions against individual insight. Told firsthand by those few who had the vision and expertise to solve it, and including a fascinating look into the behavioral, ballistic, forensic, and electronic analysis vital to cracking the case, FBI agent brothers Jim Clemente (former FBI behavioral profiler) and Tim Clemente (former FBI counterterrorism expert) take us through every facet and flaw of a nationwide manhunt that pressure tested nearly every aspect of law enforcement capabilities - and its glaring vulnerabilities.
Anchored by harrowing accounts from victims, intimate conversations with family members of those deceased, and candid accounts from those who knew the perpetrators best, relive the haunting events of the DC Sniper attack and piece together a true crime phenomenon, the impact of which can still be felt today.

Thoroughly Interesting
I haven't even finished this yet (only 2 chapters left) but I had to leave a review. This was so interesting to listen to, I think in most part because you are hearing the tales from the people involved themselves, along with Maureen's telling, the entire story had me enthralled throughout. Highly recommended, and would absolutely listen to more like this now.

What a masterpiece
Would absolutely recommend listening to this, the way this was set out and the flow was flawless. I had no idea about the full story and I could not stop listening since the first chapter, finished it all in 2 days.

Dark and Chilling and not for the faint hearted
when I initially read some of the comments, I thought to myself, I'm sure it's just another documentary. I didn't know much about the sniper except for snippets here and there. after listening to this, I honestly wish I hadn't been so judgemental. this struck me like a lightning bolt. it was one of the darkest and most uncomfortable things I've ever had to endure. all those people killed indiscriminately and without remorse. this was senseless and vile. the death penalty was just too easy for him. I felt sick to my core. I am so sorry to all the families who lived through this. I am so so sorry. this shouldn't have happened.
its definitely worth the listen.
