Hunter/Hunted: Christopher Dorner - Part 2

(PART 2/2) The manhunt is on. In Part 2 of this DEVIANT series, host Dan Szematowicz picks up the story as Christopher Dorner disappears into the mountains of Southern California, triggering one of the largest and most intense police searches in state history. As authorities flood the Big Bear region, search hundreds of cabins, and warn residents to stay inside, Dorner resurfaces in a series of confrontations that prove he is still armed, mobile, and willing to engage law enforcement directly. What follows is a rapidly escalating chain of events that ends in a violence and fire. This episode examines the final hours of the manhunt, the shootout that leaves officers dead and wounded, and the decisions made by law enforcement as the situation spirals toward its conclusion. It also explores the aftermath, including the questions, controversies, and scrutiny that follow the end of the siege. Part 2 completes the story of the Christopher Dorner manhunt, focusing on what happened, how it unfolded, and the lasting impact it left behind.
