Over 40 million checked this out so far. The Star Wars Force awakens trailer, yes. Well see you monday, everyone. The dark side. And the light. He basically tells em, yeah, i was driving the getaway car. Reporter it was his buddy who did the killing, he said. Ira draper. So, we go out and find his girlfriend and shes going, i always believed he could have potentially done this. Hes aggressive and he has these journals. Theyre journal entries about defiling women and killing and burying em. Reporter they found and questioned draper, who said he understood why he was a suspect. Have you ever thought about killing anybody . Ive never really planned it out, but maybe thought about, yeah. Reporter but after a few minutes with draper, jackson had a familiar, sinking feeling. He was very much so enamored by the fact that the police were giving him attention. He was just playing it for all it was worth . He was getting a little street cred for it. Reporter and the dna confirmed it was all an act. Two unpleasant men, police said, who seemed to be enjoying themselves at the expense of the cops. So, back to zero. By august, 2013, it had been almost a full year since Amyjane Brandhagens murder in pendleton. Investigators had exhausted hundreds of leads and themselves. I knew it was having an impact on my Physiological Health as well as my mental health. Reporter on august 8th, the chief took his family out of town for some r r. And the very next day, a woman named karen lange, happened to be a member of amyjanes church, announced to her husband, dan, she was going for a walk. She came down, and ill never forget what she said. She said, well, yknow, i was thinking that we could maybe go out for dessert afterward. Reporter karen was an accomplished singer and pianist. Dan, Vice President of the local community college. Her walk along the river levee near downtown pendleton, the riverwalk, was an almost daily habit. It was 4 30 p. M. Lots of sun left on a warm august afternoon. And the last words she said to me were, well, i guess well just have a nice boring evening. Reporter dan went back to tinkering on his motorcycle, lost all track of time. It was dark when his son walked into the room and asked an innocuous question. Wheres mom . I said, hmm, well, i dont know, ill give her a call. So, i went and tried to make a phone call and i couldnt get ahold of her. Reporter but it was after 9 30 p. M. Karen usually walked for less than an hour. Shed been gone for five. In some people, anxiety stokes panic. Dan is not like that. Its a coping mechanism. He stays calm. He made another call. Long day. 10 00 p. M. At night. My phone rings. And so, hey, hi, dan. Reporter remember jed and lisa hummel . Friends of amyjanes from church . Karen always parked her car in front of their house when she took her Late Afternoon walks. He says, is karen at your house . No. No, i just got home and i asked lisa if shed been over. I said, no, havent seen her. And i had looked outside and sure enough the car was still there, so we went out to the car and she wasnt there. Reporter so, jed and lisa grabbed flashlights and walked the couple blocks from their house down to the river levee. And there in a parking lot sat a Pendleton Policeman. What should they do, they asked him . And he just thought it was unusual enough that he got a hold of dan. Reporter as the officer left to talk to dan, jed and lisa kept looking through the dark along the river bank. Theres a fear of not finding anything. And theres a fear of finding something. When i got to the where the policeman was, we were talking and he said, you seem to be awfully calm for your wife being missing. And at that point, i thought, holy mackerel, yknow . If theres something bad that happened to her, i could be a suspect. Reporter from his patrol car, the officer was able to pull up images from cameras stationed around the river levee. No sign of karen. Then, her cell provider sent a ping to karens phone. It turned up across the main road about a halfmile from the river in the parking lot at walmart, where again, the officer could not find karen. What was going on . Around and around the riverwalk they went, pointing their puny flashlights at a sea of dark. I did go home about five. I wrote an email saying, karen is gone. I dont know where she is. I just have to go to bed. And i went and i just cried. Reporter he did not sleep long. The phone call that startled him awake brought news some good. Some very, very bad. Coming up amyjanes murder and karens disappearance. Could they be connected . Investigators are about to discover a disturbing clue. I think in that moment most of us knew that that wasnt coincidence. And the winner of this years superstar. coughs coughing can really be disruptive.

Yeah, pretty much walked into that one. Geico anywhere anytime. Just a tap away on the geico app. Reporter there have been few clues and no arrests, now another woman in the same small town has disappeared as we rejoin our story, police are about to discover a chilling connection between the two that will terrify an entire community. But will it help them catch a killer . Again, keith morrison. Reporter dawn took its own imperious time on the morning of august 10th, 2013. By that time, going on 6 00 a. M. , karen lange had been missing more than 12 hours. And then finally, the morning sun lit up the banks of the umatilla river. And the policemen called. He said, we found your wife. Reporter she was found and alive. But what the policeman said next was terrifying. Well, when he said, we found your wife and shes alive that was a great relief. But he certainly made it sound like it was a tough, tough thing. Reporter oh, it was. Karen had been struck from behind by some heavy, blunt object. Her skull was crushed. The wound was massive. Right away, the detective called the chief on vacation in the mountains five hours away and described the way they found her. Did he think she was dead already . He thought she was dead. Tremendous amount of blood. He indicates that he reaches for her, her wrist to see if she has a pulse. And her leg moves and she gasps. Reporter but it didnt look like shed be alive for long. The detective drove dan lange to the hospital. Told him, prepare for the worst. As he arrived at the emergency room, dan ran into a nurse he knew. And she took one look at me, and i was so heartbroken that i, of course, broke down. And then i had a chance to see karen. Reporter the doctors gave her a slim chance one in a hundred maybe. She was airlifted to a bigger hospital in portland for specialized care. And as dan kept watch at her bedside, he remembered an odd comment karen made a few days before she was attacked. Her boys were in college, nearly grown. She wasnt sure what her purpose was anymore. As she told dan i really wish that i could be u you know, more useful if im going to remain here. On planet earth . On planet earth, yeah. And i would assure her with but god has a plan and you will be used. Reporter but what kind of use was this . If she lived, she might never regain conciousness. If she regained conciousness, she might never be the same. How useful could that be . And then, suddenly, the case of the murder of Amy Brandhagen and the attack on karen lange seemed to take on a new and terrifying meaning. Chief roberts returned from his vacation to be handed this photograph by investigators. It had been taken four years earlier. One of the detectives had gotten his hands on an image of Amyjane Brandhagen and karen lange together dated august the 14th. Oh, my god Amyjane Brandhagen was murdered on august the 14th. Karen lange was assaulted on august the 9th, one year after amyjanes murder. Like somebodys targeting them, or somebody within the church has some strange motivation. It could be a member of the congregation, or it could be somebody who they provided Outreach Services to. Reporter in pendleton, at the Free Methodist church, the word spread quickly. I think in that moment, most of us knew that that wasnt coincidence and i cant tell you how we knew. Well, small town. Same church. Small town, same church, we all knew each other. I think we just knew. Reporter in a town where murder is rare, two women, one photo and dates that lined up like a message. Had to be a connection. Oh, it certainly crossed my mind. I think it crossed everybodys mind. Reporter so, once again, detective jackson and the others scoured hours of video recorded by dozens of cameras stationed around town, looking for a suspect. Good luck. When amyjane was murdered in broad daylight, those videos turned up exactly nothing. And then . Then, luck turned. They saw this, recorded by one of the cameras stationed around the riverwalk. 6 31 p. M. Karen lange. There she is right there out for her walk and following her a man, watching her with what looks like a pipe hidden behind his back right there. They cross a small footbridge. Theres a short stretch there of maybe 5060 yards where theres just no visibility from any direction unless youre actually on the path. And right there is where he attacks her. Reporter is that where she was found . She was found about 30 feet down the path. Reporter and then they found this video, recorded by another camera about an hour after the attack. Same man enters a park bathroom and minutes later emerges to use a drinking fountain. I immediately said, its the same guy. Weve got to show its the same guy. Reporter wait. The same guy as who . Chief roberts remembered after amyjane was murdered, the only witness who saw anything reported a young man with dark hair, wandering near the motel. Basically, the description was fairly generic male, 20something, dark hair, a little bit longer with dark toned skin. Now, we have the second crime a year later, almost to the anniversary. And heres a male profile, or image on our Network Camera system that fits. It fits reporter but who was he . And why was he targeting women from the same church . Within hours, a very unusual kind of pendleton roundup was underway. The order was clear find him fast. Coming up the evidence that was about to send this case into overdrive. It gave me chills. When dateline continues. Ah, push it. Push it. P. Push it real good ow oooh baby baby. Baby baby. If youre saltnpepa, you tell people to push it. Push it real good. Its what you do. Ah. Push it. If you want to save fifteen percent or more on car insurance, you switch to geico. Its what you do. Ah. Push it. Im pushing. Im pushing it real good im telling you i heard someoh ng. awkwardly laughs get out. Enoughs enough dcon baits are fomulated to kill in one feeding. Guaranteed. I was out for a bike ride. I didnt think id have a heart attack. But i did. Im mike, and im very much alive. Now my doctor recommends a bayer aspirin regimen to help prevent another heart attack. Be sure to talk to your doctor before you begin an aspirin regimen. Reporter when the Free Methodists of pendleton, oregon went to their Weekly Worship Services that sunday in august, 2013, they offered their prayers for karen lange lying in a portland hospital in a coma. Her husband dan a constant presence at her bedside. The prognosis was poor. But dan, optimistic by nature, struggled to hang on. Its just the faithful attitude that says, no matter what happens, its gods plan. And his plan is to prosper us. Even if i were to lose karen, i had to hold onto that and realize that. Reporter in those first two days since karen was found in the brush alongside the pendleton riverwalk, shock spread like bad electricity. Someone came up to our Senior Pastor and said, yknow, i think im glad im not part of your church after all these things have happened. Youre thinking is there a serial killer around . Reporter not fear, exactly. Not yet. But someone was out there, was among them, had killed once, perhaps twice. And so the unease grew, dark places were avoided. The odds of a stranger picking two people that were as connected, difficult to wrap your mind around. Reporter Umatilla CountyDistrict Attorney dan primus. Reporter yeah. This sounds more like a zodiactype killer. Its like one of those weird puzzles. Absolutely. As youre working these investigations, youre thinking of all those things and trying to determine what connection is there between karen lange and Amyjane Brandhagen . Reporter it seemed very likely to the police and the d. A. That the man seen in the Surveillance Video was the one who attacked karen lange. And that he might also have been the killer who stabbed amyjane to death in that motel room one year earlier. But who was it . The chief asked his street cops to look at that video. Anybody recognize him . And, what do you know, one of them did. He looked at the image for a second and sid, thats danny wu. Reporter how did he know . Because hed encountered him four times in the previous year. Minor infractions, though, so theyd never confirmed that his name actually was danny wu. But there was one thing that might help id him. He had a very distinct tattoo on the inside of his left wrist which read, semper fi. Reporter hes a marine. That was my initial reaction. Reporter but while chief roberts didnt know who the man really was or where he was now or why hed targeted two women who once taught bible School Together, he knew they had to track him down right away. This was a community on edge. Reporter but now hes out there. Hes out there. Weve gotta find him. There could be more victims. Reporter the chief cancelled all time off, called in every available officer. A manhunt was on. And then, a bit of luck. The very same sharpeyed detective who found karen noticed something odd nearby. A wooden panel on the back of an old batting cage beside the riverwalk looked not quite right. So, the officer reached behind the loose panel and found a pipe that appeared to have blood on one end. The dna confirmed it was karens blood. And then, when the crime lab compared a dna sample from the other end of the pipe with material found under amyjanes fingernails i get that call on a sunday afternoon. Now, weve connected the dots. Reporter the man who assaulted karen and Amyjane Brandhagens killer were one and the same. Right away, the police chief shared the news with the d. A. I was at home. Chief called me and asked if i was sitting down. He told me that the dna from the pipe matched the dna found underneath amyjanes fingernails. And it gave me chills. Reporter but, though chief roberts officers scoured the town, even distributed flyers with wus pictures on it. They found nothing. Hours piled up, days, more than a week. No danny wu. But anxiety . Oh, yes. You didnt leave garages unlocked. Sheds, doors windows, cars you do, you feel kinda like theres a serial killer in town reporter and then . A call from the local convention center. Two Catering Company employees told the dispatcher theyd gone in through a side door to the kitchen. And here sits this person who they readily recognized as this danny wu that we had disseminated the images of, and he was sitting there drinking a coke. And he basically picked up his stuff and disappeared into the facility. So, hes in the building somewhere. Its a big building. Its a big building reporter within minutes, the police surrounded the convention center. A search dog trained to bite joined in. They set up a command post outside one of the centers windows. The dogs just woof, woof, woofin at the door. And the oregon state trooper behind us says, i can see a leg hanging out of the ceiling. And there was this. Looking through a window . I take about two steps back from where im standing and i can see it. So, i give em the command to enter. They go straight to this location in the stairwell and there he is. Reporter minutes later, the suspect, the man known as danny wu, the man who may have murdered one woman, possibly even two and terrorized the town of pendleton, walked out in handcuffs and into the flashing cameras of the local paper. Reporter later, officers took this video of his hiding spot in an air conditoning duct in the Convention Centers ceiling where he had a blanket, a radio and some clothes. It looked like a nest. Looked liked hed been there for awhile coming and going, hiding in plain sight. Hed been here all year. Reporter but now what . Would he talk . Lawyer up . Or even would he reveal who he really was and why it appeared that hed targeted the women of the Free Methodist church . Coming up inside a heart of darkness. I didnt understand that. I had never heard that before. Revelations that would leave this town and its investigators shattered. I didnt know whether to cry. I didnt know whether to reporter here he was. The man they knew as danny wu, the Man DetectiveSergeant Rick jackson had been chasing for a year. Im Sergeant Rick jackson. Were at the Pendleton Police department. I know im not dressed like a normal Police Officer. Reporter jackson was out hunting elk when they caught danny wu and rushed in still in his camo, hoping to finally get answers to a year of questions. Are you willing to talk to me . To a certain point. Reporter the chief and the d. A. Watched from a nearby office. I didnt expect him to say anything. I expected him to ask for a lawyer. I wasnt sure how he was gonna respond to any of the questions. Reporter but d. A. Primus and all of them were in for a big surprise. Whats your name . My names lukah chang. Im gonna write it down. Whats your last name . Chang. Chang. Reporter sure enough, not danny wu, lukah chang. 23 years old, the son of christian missionaries. A deserter from the u. S marines who drifted into town without any plan and stayed briefly at that Downtown Motel where he encountered a maid named amyjane. Did you talk to her . No, only in passing. Like, she would knock on doors and say, hey, you want your room cleaned . Like, no. Reporter soon chang was broke, living on the street, spending his days at the town library across the street from the travelodge. So, you walked by and you saw her . I saw her working and its, oh, look, a target of opportunity. Attack. So, i just walked in and waited. Okay. How long did you have to wait . Probably half an hour. As youre waiting there a half hour, youre thinking to yourself, what . Im gonna do it. So, you grabbed her, brought her into the motel room, the bathroom and then what happened . I stabbed her. With what . A knife. Reporter but when detective jackson tried to get into this young mans head, the conversation veered off to a cold and disturbing place. As a missionarys son, was lukah chang rebelling against his parents . Against god . Detective jackson asked the question on just about every mind in pendleton, oregon. Why . See how it felt. See how what felt . Taking a life. Why . I was curious. How did it feel . Empowering, saddening. Empowering and saddening at the same time . Uh huh, yes. Empowering because i took a life. Saddening because i realized at the same time, life is precious. Reporter that was it . To see how it felt . . I didnt understand that. Ive never head that from a killer before. Reporter but why the Second Attack . Did he target those two women because they taught bible School Together . Because they appeared in that photograph together . Not really. It was approaching the anniversary of the first time. Reporter and that was just about it, said lukah chang. She was walking by. I noticed, followed, attacked. Reporter he was a brick wall. If the real answer was buried in his religious past, or his failed military career. Or some other secret corner we were not to know, ever. You feel remorse . Not really. Why is that . I got tired of feeling emotions and stuff like that. I got tired of feeling the feelings. So, im like, all right, lets just cut that out. And so i did. Reporter and then, having had his say, the man the police had been chasing for so long was safely tucked away in a jail cell soon to plead guilty to murder and attemped murder and begin serving 35 to life. I cant even describe the relief. Its like the world is lifted off your shoulders. I didnt know whether to cry. I didnt know whether to scream. I just didnt i was just kind of dumbfounded. Reporter across the state in portland, dan langetold his comatose wife, karen, they caught him. Though, of course she couldnt hear that. And then . A few days later, dan turned on his video camera. And well, see for yourself. Karen, can you raise that hand up . Karen, can you raise your hand again . Karen, can you raise that hand up . There ya go. Yeah, very good reporter to the astonishment of her doctors, life flooded back. Im doing very well. I feel great. Reporter and just a year after that vicious attack, here she was, karen lange. The woman whose ordeal wound up catching a killer, not exactly the purpose she expected when she talked to her husband dan that day. Like, i told him not long ago, dont ever pray for more to do with your life. cause boy do you get answered on that reporter her recovery took a long time, of course. Three hospitals, surgeries to rebuild her skull, months in a protective helmet. But of that awful night, she has no memory at all. What was the sense that you recall, at least, of coming out of this blackness into back up into life again . Well, a lot of it was just a feeling that i didnt know what was wrong. I didnt know why i was in a hospital. I didnt know i was in portland. Reporter the langes troubles are not over. A few months after dan brought karen home from portland, he was diagnosed with cancer. So, a skeptics question yknow, you two have been through so much in the last year. I mean, has this not damaged your faith . Youre not angry at god for picking on you . No. Reporter i mean, if theres a plan for you, its your plan to be so brutalized by an attack and by cancer . Well, the beauty is that we also see the blessings. See now its had such a positive effect on people and how it could be so much worse for me. I see it as we need to go through it. It will be a season of recovery for us. Reporter and then, in september, it was pendleton roundup time again. And the mcs voice boomed through the arena. Miracles happen, said the announcer. No one in pendleton knows that better than our singer today for our national anthem, please welcome, ms. Karen lange, to the arena. [ cheers and applause ] oh say can you see by the dawns early light i looked at it as an opportunity to really just thank the people of pendleton for all the support, all the things that they did they for me and my family. Of the brave [ cheers and applause ] reporter in pendleton, the world was back on its axis. Though, perhaps a smaller, sadder, place without the girl who always reached out to the lonely, the strangers, just like the one who drifted into town and killed her. Pretty remarkable, huh .
