In 1978, Rodney Alcala was a contestant on the "The Dating Game," one of America's most popular television shows at the time.

Ten years before his TV appearance, Rodney was charged with the sexual assault and attempted murder of an eight-year-old girl. In the decades that followed, he would be accused of seven murders--and, as new DNA evidence continues to be uncovered, the list may grow.This is the shocking true story about the dark and twisted man.
