Kai the Hitchhiker, Who Rescued Woman in 2013, Is Now a Convicted Killer

You might remember Kai McGillvary, the Hitchhiker who turned into a viral sensation in 2013. He was interviewed on television about helping a woman in need. Today, he’s a convicted killer. A jury found him guilty of attacking a man to death, but he insists he’s innocent. “I didn’t realize he got killed. I didn’t know that,” he told Inside Edition in an exclusive jailhouse interview. Kai believes critical evidence was ignored or destroyed in his case and he’s filing an appeal.
