Waiting to speak to her was one of the nation's most notorious serial killers — the man who five years earlier had killed her father. "I need to apologize for what I've done to you and your family," Lee Boyd Malvo told her during the Sept. 20 call. Miss Witz stood, stunned, in the shopping aisle. "I was standing in the Costco bawling my eyes out," she said. In March 2002, Malvo fatally shot Miss Witz's father, Jerry...

Malvo was convicted in December of the slaying of FBI analyst Linda Franklin, 47, outside a Falls Church, Va., Home Depot store.
