This is a shocking crime. You know, the kind of shooting that you would think you'd only see in the movies. You could even call it a cold-blooded ambush. I'm Humela Aragawi. Humela Aragawi. I'm a reporter with CBS Los Angeles. This happened in the mountains east of LA, way up in the mountains. The sky dressed as a delivery man goes up to this home. He knocks on the door. When the guy who's supposed to take the package comes to the door, he pulls out a gun and he shoots three or four times. We didn't learn that the victim was a lawyer. His name was Mark Angelucci. Angelucci died right there at the scene. I couldn't stop thinking about Mark. I would wake up in tears with my pillow already soaked, just knowing that I now live in a world without Mark. I'm never seeing a gun. I'm Cassie J and I'm a dear friend of Mark Angelucci. He was just a down-to-earth at the center of his soul, a good-hearted person. Did your mind start racing about who could have done this? I didn't want to jump to any conclusions that this was land because it was Mark. It was everyone loved Mark. Just eight days after Mark Angelucci was murdered, another crime took place. About 2,800 miles away in suburban New Jersey. It seemed like an exact copy, the delivery man, the gunshots. I was notified that a shooting had occurred at a federal judge's residence in New Jersey. I'm Joe Denahan, FBI and Newark Field Office. Please telling us that that gunman was dressed up as a delivery man when he rang the doorbell here at their home right here behind me. Who would want to hurt the judge or who would want to hurt someone in her family? Her college-aged son sustained a gunshot wound to the chest. I get a call from one of my friends. He's like, "There's an article that Dan was shot. Go to Google right now." So I go to Google, and sure enough, there's article after article after article, just describing what's happening. Nothing inside of me believed it because I couldn't get over the fact I'd seen him five hours before. There's no way this is happening. Every article was saying that Dan had passed away at the scene. There was one that had said, "No, he's in the hospital. He's in bad shape, but he's alive." And that was the article that everyone was clinging to. Like, there's hope. What ended up happening was a man had come to their door to drop off a package. That man was not a FedEx employee. That was a very bad man. Two heinous but similar crimes on opposite sides of the country. Were they connected? We did not have the subject in pocket. We had no idea who it was. You know, you have a violent and unstable person, so you were aggressively preparing for that possible confrontation. [Music] [Music] Documentary filmmaker Cassie Jay still has a hard time grasping that her close friend, Mark Angelucci, is dead. We almost had a kind of brother, sisterly love for each other and respect, and he was my biggest protector and also my biggest cheerleader. Angelucci had been living in Cedar Pines Park, California, a sleepy little village here in the San Bernardino Mountains east of Los Angeles. It was broad daylight when he came to his door to sign for that package on July 11th, 2020. The 52-year-old attorney never had a chance. He was shot quite blank. This looked like a targeted assassination. Hermella Aragawi reported the story for CBS 2 Los Angeles. It was actually someone else who answered the door, but the delivery man insisted that Angelucci signed for the package. Detectives would learn that the shooter had used a 380 caliber handgun,

A judge’s son is gunned down by a man delivering a package. 2,800 miles away, an eerily similar crime — this time the target is a lawyer. Who is behind the killings? CBS News correspondent Tracy Smith reports for "48 Hours."
