After using one of his victims\\u2019 debit cards around the country, Keyes was tracked down, arrested, and indicted for the murder of 18 year old Samantha Koenig. Keyes would confess to four murders but the FBI believes he had a total of eleven victims, based on the blood drawings they found in his jail cell.

In part two, we learn that nestled amongst the crowded streets of downtown Los Angeles lies one of the most famous hotels in the country\\u2026 The Cecil Hotel.
