And today in particular, because we've got a fascinating guest with us who is going to help us understand a little bit more about the criminal mind.

Thanks so much for watching.

Yeah.

So, yeah, I d- I, you know, I worked, you know, with Peter Jennings for a very long time, and Diane and Barbara and Deborah Roberts.

Um, Deborah Roberts and I did the very first story ever in, in, in a country about Botox in 1993.

Wow.

It, everyone was so horrified-

Welcome to 2020, the after show.

I'm Deborah Roberts and as always, it's good to have you with us.

Today, we are gonna take you inside a pretty amazing story, kind of a cat and mouse game.

It's from our latest 2020 episode called Born to Kill, and it centers around 22-year-old Katie Blount Bell.

Thanks so much for watching.

From all of us here at 20/20 and ABC News, good night.

It wasn't until the 1960s that gutsy women like Barbara Walters, Nancy Dickerson, Dorothy Fuldheim, Diane Sawyer, who, by the way, started as a weather girl, and Melba Tolliver, the first Black female reporter, fought like infantrymen to carve a respected place in television news.

My guess is these are the women that Deborah Roberts wanted to be when she grew up, and she has done a hell of a job staking her claim at ABC News.

For 30 years, both in the field and as co-anchor of 20/20, she has covered major events both globally and nationally, the AIDS crisis in Africa, the plight of Rwandan refugees, the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona, the aftermath of the Gulf War, and captivating interviews with women who matter to her, and should to us, like Rosa Parks, and a feisty woman who was reluctantly being tossed into the spotlight when her husband tossed his hat into the presidential ring named Michelle Obama.

It all sounds so serious, but Deborah Roberts [laughs] is charming, warm, dedicated, a role model.

She dresses great, and she is one half of a marvelous couple because her husband is the nicest man on morning television, Al Roker.

She's been doing this a long time.

Other women in her place might have thought of retirement, and unless she's holding out on me, Deborah Roberts doesn't seem to have any interest in stopping, and that's why I'm so glad to see her here on The Happy Grown-Up.

Hey there.

Welcome to 2020, The After Show.

I'm Deborah Roberts and as always, it's so good to have you with us.

And I gotta tell you, you are in for a special treat today because we have brought in with us two groundbreaking scientists who have had a huge impact in the world of true crime.

And if those of you who are true crime followers follow groundbreaking technology, you'll wanna hear about this one.

Thanks so much for watching.
