The Beltway Snipers, Pt. 1 A Byte Out of History The Beltway Snipers, Part 1. Pumping gas, shopping, reading a book. Among the victims was one of our own—FBI intelligence analyst Linda Franklin, who was felled by a single bullet while leaving a home improvement store in Virginia with her husband. James Martin was the first victim of the DC Beltway Sniper, killed in the parking lot of Shoppers Food Warehouse. The 1969 business graduate of Southeast Missouri State University was a veteran employed as a program manager for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Office of Marine and Aviation Operations.
