Temple of Fear: In the early 1980s, the decapitation of a young African-American male led the Miami-Dade police department and the FBI along a trail of murder. Investigators quickly discovered that the victim was a dissident member of a religious sect headed by a man calling himself Yahweh ben Yahweh, or God, Son of God. Although the FBI believed Yahweh ben Yahweh and his followers were responsible for many murders, they could find no direct evidence linking them to the crimes. Agents knew they had but one recourse: to convince one of the cult leader’s fanatical followers to betray a man he considered a god.
Silent Strike: In November of 1994, when a Wells Fargo armored van disappeared from a Glendale, Arizona mall, local authorities and the FBI scrambled to recover it, and its cargo of nearly a million dollars. Six hours later, agents found the van, its driver shot dead inside and the money gone. It was a perfect hit by professionals who left no clue behind. Months passed before a solid lead developed. In January, a tip led agents to look into a former prison guard. Surveillance uncovered two other suspects, a bounty hunter and a former Phoenix policeman. The FBI would have its hands full trying to track and build a case against killers whose law enforcement training had made them clever criminals.
