Bouncing between that "Radicalization of young men" thread and this one, it's interesting how different "classic" serial killers and today's lone wolves are.

Hopefully. That Reddit link I posted earlier seems to have a link to a FOX livestream that will be happening.
I feel like if he has had a catchier name, this dude would've been more known. I barely just found out about him last year even though this guy is Zodiac tier. It was such an insane case that I had to tell people about it and none of them knew about him, either.
Imagine being say 25 years old and living your whole life on a street with the same neighbors and then today having SWAT show up to apprehend the old guy who lives next door, who it turns out is a prolific thief/rapist/murderer that you've known your whole life. Shit is crazy.
Hope he suffers every moment that remains of his vile life until he's in the dirt, and that the victims and families can get some semblance of closure and peace from him finally being caught.
Essentially. His last confirmed murder was in '91. He lived in Wichita, had a job, family, was a fixture of the community, etc. They only caught him because he started sending letters to police again in the mid-aughts.
Who knows, I'm just 100% speculating as to why he seemed to stop and settle down in the 80s.
Yeah, exactly. Its mind boggling to me. So this is basically like BTK again, except far more prolific.
Haha I just had the thought that it's good he got caught so Lpotl can do a series lololol
I'm hoping Mindhunter on Netflix incorporates him somehow.
Gotcha. I just wonder if there are more crimes to be discovered.
Crazy how much all the sketches look like DeAngelo, at the same time each sketch looks completely different from one another.
Man, the way they allegedly caught this guy is nuts. The FBI had the Australians run a DNA sample saying they believe this guy was a related to Mr. Cruel's spree in Australia. They got a half match in their DNA database for an illegitimate child of the guy which he would have fathered when he was on leave in Australia during his time in 'Nam. Crazy.
Nevermind, this was just a theory. Reading comprehension is bad today.

i thought they had done a bit on him during one of their unsolved cases series. that's kinda where they stuck Zodiac as well.
Yeah I wonder if his DNA will be shared with other countries to see what else he might be connected to.
I'd actually never heard about this, or at least I'd mostly forgotten about it, until recently when I saw the first episodes of the series on it on HLN, Unmasking A Killer.
Watched the first few episodes with my mom and I told her "I bet he's a cop, or was in the military, or both." due to the nature of how he scoped, planned, and committed his crimes. Lo and behold...
Good to see that they actually caught this scumbag.

Thanks. I don't really know too much about serial killers.
What's his daughters name? That girl I know with the same last name from Sacramento also kind of looks like him in that Navy photo. Holy fuck if she is his daughter. :X I'm afraid to ask her.
He was referenced throughout the first season via the vignettes that opened each episode.
