Introducing Trained to Kill

Speaker 1 Nestled in the far reaches of Puget Sound in the Pacific Northwest, you can find a chain of gorgeous, tranquil islands.

Speaker 2 It's so beautiful, but it's

Speaker 2 changed for me now. I don't.

Speaker 2 It's marred.

Speaker 1 In 2009, three days before Halloween, a grisly crime stunned the seaport town of Anacortis, Washington.

Speaker 2 I can only describe it as evil.

Speaker 2 Something horrible, something terrible.

Speaker 1 The blood on the walls, the blood on the carpet, it told a story of what took place.

Speaker 1 The scene was at the house of a popular dog trainer named Mark Stover.

Speaker 2 Mark was known as the dog whisperer of Anacortis and the dog trainer to the stars. He could speak dog.
They knew that he knew them.

Speaker 1 There was blood on Mark's driveway and blood on the floor throughout his house, but there was no sign of Mark. I've never seen in my career a case that has as many twists and turns and mysteries

Speaker 1 as this case with Mark Stover.

Speaker 1 They soon discovered a story tangled in obsession.

Speaker 2 His eyes went just crazy. He clenched his hands and fists, and he was just in a shaking rage.

Speaker 1 A love triangle between Mark Stover. He couldn't control his obsession.
You know, he chronicled his obsession. This is war.
This is goddamn war. You want my life enough.

Speaker 1 An heiress who wanted a new life.

Speaker 1 I think Linda Umpdyke knows more than what she's telling. And her new lover.

Speaker 2 It's a beautiful love.

Speaker 1 In my opinion,

Speaker 2 it's legendary.

Speaker 1 Throughout this case, detectives wonder who was the hunter and who was the hunted.

Speaker 2 We don't have the truth yet.

Speaker 1 We have some of the truth, but we don't have all of it. I'm Peter Van Sant.

Speaker 1 From 48 Hours, this is Train to Kill: the Dog Trainer, the Heiress, and the Bodyguard.
