Another murder put Janelle Alexander and her husband Jayson in a position of constant observation. The Countdown Killer managed to escape them not once, but twice.
The damage the serial killer cause was more than personal at this point and Janelle was more ready to get rid of this threat than she was before. With the recent adoption of her niece and nephew as well as the birth of her first child, she was determined to ensure the safety of the kids and put a crazed, off-the-rails killer behind bars or in the ground.
The narcissistic behavior of the killer, who Janelle felt personally wanted to ruin her life, would lead to more trouble before everything cleared up, but who came out on top was still up in the air and that fearled Jayson to react in a brazen way.
