HUNTED BY MY HUSBAND: THE UNTOLD STORY OF THE DC SNIPER Premiering, October 28th on Investigation Discovery (ID)

The documentary premieres on Investigation Discovery on Tuesday, October 28th, from 9:00 pm - 11:00 pm ET/PT.

This October, Investigation Discovery (ID) proudly presents the fourth year of its impactful NO EXCUSE FOR ABUSE campaign in alignment with Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

HUNTED BY MY HUSBAND reveals the story of the DC Sniper and places Mildred Muhammad — the ex-wife of convicted DC Sniper John Muhammad — at the center of the narrative. Her testimony reveals the chilling reality that the violence that gripped the D.C. area in 2002 was not a series of random killings, but part of a calculated plan rooted in manipulation, control, and domestic abuse driven by a single, dark obsession: John's relentless desire to murder his ex-wife so he could have custody of their three children. The documentary reveals the harrowing torment Mildred endured, and the lengths to which her abuser would go to kill her, even at the cost of innocent lives.
