The One Who Got Away is a personal account from the original intended target of convicted murderer, Mark Twitchell. Tetreault recounts his personal journey of the assault, the highly publicized court case, the resulting media fallout, and life as 'The One Who Got Away'.[3][4]

On October 3, 2008 in Edmonton, Canada, computer company contractor Gilles Tetreault logged onto a dating website, looking for companionship. There he met what he thought was a pretty, young blonde named Sheena. Aspiring filmmaker Mark Twitchell lured Tetreault to a rented garage in south Edmonton by posing as a woman on the dating site. Arriving for his 'date', Tetreault was brutally attacked by a man in a hockey mask and after a violent struggle, narrowly escaped with his life. One week later, Johnny Altinger was lured to the same address and attacked in the same manner, only his life ended in what police believe was a ghastly case of life imitating art. Mark Twitchell, the man found guilty of Altinger's murder, was a fan of the hit TV show Dexter, a sensationalized depiction of the life of a vigilante serial killer.[5][6][7]

Background

Twitchell was convicted of first degree murder in 2011 for killing John Brian "Johnny" Altinger.[8] The criminal investigation and first-degree murder trial drew substantial media attention due to its connections to Dexter Morgan, a fictional serial killer and Bloodstain pattern analysis featured in the Dexter television program and series of books.[9]
