March 29th, 2019. Columbia, South Carolina. Samantha Josephson was spending the evening with her friends celebrating her recent acceptance into Drexel University School of Law and her upcoming graduation from University of South Carolina. Her long-term boyfriend was going to be moving to Columbia to live with her during law school. She had been texting her boyfriend all through the night and told him that she was getting an Uber ride home around 2 a.m. on March 29th. Samantha never made it to her apartment; her driver actually went the opposite direction. This driver wasn’t her Uber driver, it was a man that had been driving around the area hunting for a victim. She was found later that morning about an hour and a half away from Columbia with around 120 stab wounds. Investigators moved quickly to find Samantha's killer before he could harm anyone else.
