Between 1974 and 1986, a series of murders, rapes, and burglaries terrorized California. In 12 years, the man known in different parts of the state as the East Area Rapist, the Original Night Stalker, and the Visalia Ransacker committed at least 13 murders and more than 50 rapes and 100 burglaries.



quote:

The Associated Press has now reported that DeAngelo is expected to plead guilty in exchange for a plea deal that allows him to avoid the death penalty. He is expected to plead guilty on June 29 and be sentenced once the surviving victims and relatives of his murder victims have a chance to confront him in court.

quote:

As chronicled in HBO’s I’ll Be Gone in the Dark documentary, the Golden State Killer committed at least 50 rapes and 12 murders across California throughout the 1970s and 1980s. In over 40 years, nobody’s been considered a promising suspect of the heinous acts — until now.


quote:

After waking them with a gun and flashlight pointed in their faces, he tightly bound the hands of his victims. He left the man face down and stacked dishes on his back, threatening to kill everyone in the house if he heard them rattle — before repeatedly raping the woman.


quote:

While the crimes occurred in six counties — Sacramento, Santa Barbara, Orange, Ventura, Tulare, and Contra Costa — DeAngelo will be tried on multiple murder counts in a single trial in Sacramento. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty in all counties but Tulare and Contra Costa.

The pre-trial hearing saw Judge White permit the DNA evidence, and rule in favor of the prosecution’s request for additional cheek swabs from DeAngelo.

In January, the court entered a not-guilty plea on DeAngelo’s behalf, and rejected the defense’s request for more time to garner evidence before the trial moves forward.

Excellent. Hopefully he details everything from his Visalia Ransacker days on.

I wouldn't allow a plea deal. They have DNA evidence. It's a lock. Dude deserves to be exterminated.

Scariest stories I've ever heard. Far worse than anything in a movie because it really happened.

Here is an excellent video about his life, some of the killings, and his arrest.

Yup. How do you think Thanksgiving was for that family last year? Think maybe they had a few new topics to discuss?

Conspiracy theorists might wonder why DNA samples submitted to 23 and me were then run through a federal DNA database.
