Was the Devil Telling Him to Pull the Trigger?

On February 20, 2016, an ordinary Uber driver unleashed a night of unimaginable terror. Jason Dalton went on a killing spree across Kalamazoo, Michigan, selecting his victims seemingly at random and leaving a trail of death in his wake.

By the time the night was over, eight people had been shot—six of them fatally.

But were these killings truly random? Maybe not. Dalton claimed he was receiving messages from the Devil through his iPhone. Whenever an app that looked like a devil’s head or a horned cow head went from red to black, Jason believed he had no choice but to kill.

Amid the carnage, there were moments of extraordinary bravery. One woman risked her life to shield children from the killer’s bullets. And in a miraculous twist, a teenage girl defied death itself—just as doctors prepared her for organ donation, she traced the letter "B" into her mother’s palm, proving she was still alive.

Ride-Share From Hell, improved and expanded with new information after originally being published as The Devil Made Him Do It, is a harrowing true crime account of an out-of-control killer who believed he was carrying out the Devil’s bidding—and the desperate race to stop him.

Above all else, this is a story of Survival, Justice and Hope!
