The shocking testimony of Cindy, who met the love of her life, Bobby Joe Long, when they were just 13 years old. Almost 20 years later he would be found guilty of eight brutal murders.

In chilling detail, we relive how their relationship blossomed after they first met while playing the local park, how they became engaged seven years later, and how her life changed forever when Bobby suffered a terrible motorbike accident.

His injuries changed his personality and behaviour, turning him into an impuslive, violent abuser whose coercion, control and brutal assaults on Cindy spiralled rapidly out of control.

As the story of Cindy's troubled relationship with Long unfolds, criminologists reveal a horrifying series of rapes in the area, along with the details of the horrific murders of women who had been disappearing from the local streets.

Cindy reveals how Long's abuse drove her to breaking point, and how she finally decided to end it all by grabbing a shotgun and holding it to his head as he slept, but was prevented from pulling the trigger by thoughts of leaving her kids without any parents.

Despite finally managing to leave him and file for divorce, he continued to beat and rape her when he came to pick up their children for the weekend, and he chillingly warned her to be careful of the killer that was still on the loose.

After years of suffering, her nightmare relationship with Long finally came to a shocking end when, after a day out with her kids at the local fun fair, she received a call from him to tell her the shocking truth – that he was responsible for the multiple murders of local women.

Cindy's life came crashing down as she learned about the gruesome details of the murders including the mutilation and dismemberment he inflicted upon his victims, and his confession to dozens of rapes. Cindy had entered a living nightmare.

This is the shocking true story of Terry, ex-girlfriend of serial killer James Randall. He was sentenced to death in 1997 for the brutal murders of two women and suspected of many more unsolved killings.

After falling into a downward spiralling lifestyle of drug abuse and sex work, Terry met Randall when he approached her as a new client on the streets. To help Terry find a new life, Randall offered her a relationship and a place to stay. Little did she know the terrible truth - that he'd been jailed for kidnapping, assaulting and abusing his ex-wife and was a suspect in the unsolved murder of her best friend.

As their relationship blossomed, Randall's behaviour became increasingly strange. He'd regularly hide in bushes and jump out at Terry, and at home strangle her until she begged him to stop. Afraid to confront him, Terry began to plot her escape from his increasingly threatening behaviour. Meanwhile, local sex workers were being found strangled to death.

One day, while in a college class, Terry was approached by detectives who revealed the shocking truth that turned her world upside down – her boyfriend James Randall was responsible for the murders of young women in the local area. They told her he was on the run and convinced her to help lure him back to her house where he was captured by a police dog unit.

Terry reveals the devastating and jaw-dropping moment Randall told her in prison that he'd killed the other women so as not to hurt her. Now, Terry has rebuilt her life and found happiness but will the nightmares ever stop?
