D.C. Sniper: 23 Days of Fear is a 2003 T.V. movie created by USA Network based on the Beltway sniper attacks of 2002. The movie chronicles the period when John Allen Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo went on a serial shooting spree in October 2002 in Virginia, Washington, D.C., and Maryland, all parts of the Washington Metropolitan Area, the entire area of which was held in a grip of terror. The protagonist is Charles Moose , the chief of the Montgomery County Police Department in Montgomery County, Maryland, who is one of those heading the efforts to track down the snipers. Unable to give... anything but small pieces of information at various press conferences held during the 23 dark days, Moose finds himself vilified and derided in many corners as ineffectual and incompetent. Indeed, quite a few newspapers outside the area targeted by snipers came right out and called for Moose's resignation.
