Hey everyone - It's been about 6 years since I last posted, but I've been trying to locate the details of an episode and wondered if anyone could provide further on it...

It was a segment about a guy who goes offroading in the hills of California. He stumbles upon a campsite where a beautiful girl is sitting and looking sort of dazed. Then 3 men jump out and begin harassing him and shaking the car, etc. He gets out of there and then a while later, the girl's body is found off the highway or something like that.

Anyone know this story? Details would be much appreciated. I just remember this scaring the hell out of me when I saw it.

Thanks!

Yes. The murder victim's name was Kimberly Pandelios. So far, there has been only one arrest in the case; David Rademaker was convicted of the murder and sentenced to life in prison.

I don't suppose there is some place I can view the video of the segment? I've done the obvious searches. It's been years since I've seen it, but it made a mark.

Apparently Brad Leon was called by Rademaker's defense attorneys to testify about what he saw; the prosecution countered that the incident Leon witnessed was unrelated. Still disturbing, if it actually happened the way he described it.

Unrelated? Then what did they think he saw?

Who is Brad Leon? Is that the real name of the witness (guy off-roading in the forest). I noticed that the guy inteviewed in the segment went by an alias name.

Here's the article where it mentions Leon (the witness); bear with me, I'm lousy at links:
