The Biggest FBI Cases From 1993 | TRIPLE EPISODE | The FBI Files

Polly Klaas: Kidnapped: (S01E01) On October 1, 1993, a stranger abducted 12-year-old Polly Klaas during a slumber party in her home. The FBI was immediately called in. Agents collected fibers from her bedroom and discovered, through the use of laser light sources, a palm print on Polly’s bed, previously invisible to the naked eye. After a massive two-month investigation, the FBI arrested Richard Allen Davis. Palm prints and fibers matched and Davis was convicted of abduction and murder.

The World Trade Center Bombing: (S01E12) On February 26, 1993, an explosion rocked the World Trade Center parking garage. Six people died and more than a thousand were injured in the bomb blast that tore a 5-story crater in the building. During the investigation, the twisted fender of a rental van was extracted from the rubble. The FBI was able to determine from where the van was rented and by whom. Undercover agents then made their arrests within six days of the bombing. The FBI labs were essential in linking the chemicals from the bomb to chemicals found in the suspects’ homes and offices. Mohammed Salameh, Nidal Ayyad, Mahmud Abouhalima, Ahmad Ajaj, Ramzi Yousef and Eyad Ismoil were convicted and will spend the rest of their lives in prison.

Criminal Enterprise: (S05E16) In October 1993, a robber surprised unsuspecting customers by dropping through the roof of a California bank. When police arrived, he escaped from the roof in a hail of bullets. A tip from a local resident led police and FBI agents to the perpetrator. They would soon learn that he had masterminded a local kidnapping, and held the fate of an innocent woman in his hands.

Unravel the mystery alongside the FBI's greatest law enforcers and forensic scientists.
