'20/20' DOCUMENTS THE SEARCH AND CAPTURE OF A COLLEGE TOWN SERIAL KILLER IN OHIO FOLLOWING A SURVIVOR'S 911 CALL

An All-New Episode of '20/20' Airs on Friday, Nov. 22 (9:01-11:00 p.m. EST) on ABC and Stream Next Day on Hulu

When authorities received a desperate 911 call in the quiet college town of Ashland, Ohio, law enforcement officers raced into action to find a kidnapped woman, not knowing that saving her would lead to the capture of a serial killer. ABC News correspondent John QuiƱones reports in an all-new episode of "20/20," Friday, Nov. 22 (9:01-11:00 p.m. EST) on ABC and streaming next day on Hulu.

Following the survivor's whispered plea for help, skilled veteran sex crimes investigator Detective Kim Mager's unyielding determination and sharp psychological instincts helped solve this complex and dangerous case following a game of cat-and-mouse with the then-suspect Shawn Grate. Much like a real-life Clarice Starling, the character played by Jodie Foster in the Academy Award(R)-winning film "The Silence of the Lambs," Detective Mager became Grate's obsession. Thirty-three hours of a strategically crafted interrogation and unwavering resolve, Detective Mager uncovered Grate's horrifying secrets, which resulted in his confession to the kidnapping and murders of five women across Ohio.

"20/20" features exclusive interviews and expert analysis with law enforcement detectives Kim Mager, Brian Evans and Curt Dorsey, as well as 911 dispatcher Sara Miller. The two-hour special also includes additional interviews with friends and family of some of the victims.

ABC News' "20/20" is an award-winning primetime program anchored by David Muir and Deborah Roberts. A proven leader as a long-form newsmagazine for over 45 years, "20/20" features unforgettable, character-driven true-crime mysteries, exclusive newsmaker interviews, hard-hitting investigative reports and in-depth coverage of high-profile stories.
