He went from being a serial rapist to a serial killer.
Is there any reason to think he'd stop?
It was a convincing argument, one that's held for more than three decades.
And yet, David Wood has insisted all along that it isn't true.
We're going to death row to hear him tell us why.
But before we head there, we're going to talk to somebody with a very different feeling about the kind of person David Wood is.
One of the victims who testified against him.
From Serial Productions, The Marshall Project, and The New York Times, this is The Last 12 Weeks.
Christy was 13 when David Wood raped her.
She's in her late 50s now and says very few people in her life know the story she's about to tell us about her connection to El Paso's most notorious serial killer case.
When Christy was in middle school, she was hanging out at her friend's house one night and realized she had to get home to make curfew.
Her house was in walking distance, and she figured she could shave a few minutes off by cutting through a park.
But it was getting dark out, so she called her boyfriend, Henry, and asked him to meet her along the way.
As she made her way into the park, she felt footsteps behind her.
At first, she figured it was Henry trying to catch up.
But Henry wasn't saying anything, which she thought was odd.
Christy says they started scuffling, and she fell to the ground.
She kept fighting, kicking up at him.
