In Part 1 of this two-part DEVIANT episode, host Dan Szematowicz tracks the story from the killings of Monica Quan and Keith Lawrence through the critical discoveries that identify Christopher Dorner as the suspect. As the investigation unfolds, law enforcement agencies across Southern California move into high alert, protective details are deployed, and Dorner resurfaces violently.

This episode covers the first confirmed attacks on police, the widening manhunt, and the moment authorities realize they are dealing with a trained, mobile shooter who is actively engaging officers.

Part 2 continues with the Big Bear manhunt, Dorner’s reappearance, and the final confrontation.
