Journalist Fred Mann was on the police beat that summer.

Ed's boss even puts up a $3,000 reward for information.
Every part of Ruth's harrowing ordeal becomes public knowledge.
The cops didn't dare tell the terrified public that they were still wondering if this was BTK.

Larry Hatterberg was a TV news correspondent for Cake TV at the time.
Ruth spent nine days recovering in the hospital before doctors approved her release.
Sending her home put the investigators on high alert.
At the hospital, Ruth had been easy to protect.
At home, she's at risk.
