Love Billy At the time it was happening, they had a criminal profile done to help them (it was kinda new at the time) and the person said that it was almost certain the murderer was ex military or cop or fbi or something. considering how tactical he was and the diamond knot trick. but they never looked through their own force despite that.
Sacramento police, this was not a success. You did not stop his murderous spree. He stopped it himself. And continued to live out the best years of his life under your nose. To capture him, FINALLY, after this many decades, is, at most, a relief from a 40 year FAILURE of Sacramento law enforcement.
Eric Stephen hawking has a right to be whatever religion or non religion he wants idiot don't say he will go to hell because he doesn't believe in god you know what that's called? Pushing your religion in our faces I believe in god but I cannot believe the words your saying. Stephen hawking deserves to go to the highest point in heaven and just because people don't believe in god doesn't mean they are criminals bud
Wow....after 42 years only caught him now. This should now allow the dna submission of police officers as well because this job is a very good front for clever killers like this POS. He was able to elude capture for so long coz he knew what to avoid for police not to follow his tracks.
+Beverly Charles They dont have to give dna? That doesnt surprise me but it does shock me. In Canada, for example, if a person wants to own an air gun with over 500 fps they require a full firearms license, even if they never own a real gun. Furthermore, once a prospective airgun owner aquires a license, they are subject to a automatic criminal record check every day...for the rest of their life. Police officers get one record check during the application phase.sex offenders and even high risk pederasts dont get this treatment. I know that the only people who would oppose the pederasts being checked everyday would be the peds themselves,and for some disgustingly wrong reason, they have more rights than their victims In Canada. I once lived in a very family friendly area with a k5 school 1 block away when a serial rapist high risk offender was released to the custody of my neighbors who were his relatives. The day after he moved in, the local police notified the closest neighbors only that this already happened. In my house the owner had two young teenage daughters, great kids really innocent and polite, and when this happened their father told me that it ended their innocense and he installed metal security doors and bought a gun. This wasnt some groper in the park. Im trying to remember his name so I can link the story. This animal was the worst kind. His most shocking crimes were pretending to be looking for a ride from elderly white people (he was a native), and when they picked him up he would beat them and tie them up and rob and rape the women in front of their partners. This sicko was back in jail less than 2 weeks after moving in for breaching his parole by consuming alcohol. Whenever he would go to prison he was offered (should have been mandatory for his release) early release if he participated in treatment and therapy rehab to treat his sickness. Everytime he refused the treatment in exchange for serving his entire sentence because he was untreatable and also a lazy, useless drunk indian. So everytime he got out, he would reoffend within weeks or days. His last crime, he held an elderly cole in their 70s and 80s in their motorhome while he beat them and raped the wife in front of the husband. imagine that happening to your grandparents!? I think lots of people get the wrong impression of Canada being such a safe and low crime country, but the truth is that our media doesnt cover it because the ruling powers dont want it to ruin the safe image Canada seems to have, Its all so untrue. This country is a haven for pedophiles and rapist sex maniacs because the sentences are a joke and they get protection by the law. Unlike the US , which is light years ahead of Canada, we dont have a monitoring system like Megans law I believe its called. Usually when these vile vermin are set free prematurely, their handlers will quietly deposit them in nice unsuspecting neighborhoods without telling anyone. If they do disclose their location, it is done with absolute minimum effort and only tocover their own ass. It's pathetic, Im actually ashamed and embarrassed to live in a country that embraces these devious fiends that can never be rehabilitated like they are an asset to the country and treat victims like they've done wrong, and its them that are ruining the pederfucks life by pressing charges. Its sick and it makes my blood boil. Not everyone deserves a second chance. The rcmp has a terrible reputation in this country for abusing peoples rights and not following any uniformity in protocol. And the cops are peds themselves, just lookup Creepcatchers, Iveseen them bust at least three pigs tryingto lure children for sex, one pig was trying to have sex with a 9 yr old! eversee that on your news? of course not. Its all about image and grey areas here. I love this country for its beauty and wildlife, but The laws here are so horribly sad and backwards how good people are seen as crooks and the bests are allowed to trample all over us whilebeing protected by the police because they are worried that the rapers will get whatss coming to them. Oh Canada...get your shit together, stop letting all these mongrel races take over our country and let in proper immigrants that actually need to move like thefarmers in South Africa being slaughtered by the savage black population.
He was arrested in 1979 for shoplifting a hammer and dog repellent. I never could understand why the victims dogs avoided him. Now it makes sense. Plus victims said he had a strange smell. LE stop patting yourself on the back. 42 years if not longer this former cop got away with horrific crimes. He’s an old man now.
Skip to 42:00 for the Q&A. Trust me. I cannot believe all the back patting that took place here and it is incomprehensible to me that all these folks were so unaware of how they would sound when they wrote their speeches. This was perhaps the worst criminal arrest press conference I've ever seen.
Tosh T they should be patting each other on the back. You know how many murders and rapes go unsolved? They caught this guy after 40 long years and I'm sure the victims families are great full.
John Redberg hey do that again it was fun. plz u clownd cops.lololol heyhahahaohmifrikngod these slow ass ppl. likes ur comment.thats fun to read plus this lady get to point name.
Never thought about it like that before. Maybe most police are sociopaths. This is the kind who thinks they're never wrong no matter how wrong they are.
Look at all that grandstanding just chomping at the bit to get up to that microphone and Pat themselves on the back, should be embarrassed it took this long. pathetic,,,, Thin Blue Line right
A police department is a great place for sociopaths to hide. There are others, who have not been caught, because they are so well protected by their jobs.
Two reasons why it takes this long or never to solve a case such as this. 1) There are obstructionists that are hindering the cases from pushing forward. and 2) The police force are just down right too lazy to do their job. Sometimes it is the cops themselves who are the ones deliberately dragging the case along because they're either not smart enough,they have not much to no interest in solving the case or else they are waiting for the right moment to crack the case due to the possibility that they have political ambitions and solving this case will give them a huge feather in their cap. If you think that doesn't happen or they couldn't get away with something like that then you have a talent for underestimation. I'm not saying that such things happen all the time,I'm saying such things do happen.
@cali girl Ex cop or cop, a cop is a cop: they really should upgrade the profile of a serial killer. Its not the pathetic lonely mothers boy who lives in the parents attic. Its the folk who has athority, who are trustworthy and have social skills, i knew this for a long time. (priests, teachers, cops, doctor, judges, lawyers etc. )
There are a lot of guest speakers in this video dressed in fine clothes from Macy's. But I know that there is only one person we can validly gave our applause to for accomplishing the project.
Yeah, I was a little kid in 76. I turned 11 that year. I don't know this guy's name. Scary that he was a police officer. When I was 12 yrs old my family lived in Auburn CA, I believe thats., Sacramento County.
Thinking Özyıldırım Yeah but just because they say something doesn't mean it's true (I know nothing about this so I don't really have an opinion but I'm just pointing that out)
That shows just how ignorant you are of this case. This case has been going on for forty years, and the book while very good listed information that was already common knowledge to people who followed it.
1976? Ten years before I was born. To the victims and their families who lost a loved one, and to those who became the killer's victim, I send you all my prayers and condolences all the way from Marysville ca. Thank you.
Tf? Look at all the grandstanding....it wasn't even the cops that caught him. And it's because of them that he was free till now. And a DNA ancestry ad caught him. Look at how they are acting. Good job, give yourself a good pat on the back.
Wouldn't you commend someone for locking up a serial killer/rapist? I mean this is a cold case. It's almost as good as finding Jack the Ripper, but not quite.
ok he used a flashlight in his attacks!! and was an expert at restraining people!! no one ever thought to check a list of discharged or fired police officers and interview them? he was fired for shoplifting a dog repellent and hammer from a hardware store!!??no one thought that was strange behavior? does not sound to me like the best and the...
I wish she wouldn't talk so much about the past, and just say how it happened and what went down. I mean I still don't know how this particular ex cop came into question in the first place. It's not like he's young enough to resemble those pictures they put up. I mean don't get me wrong I believe he did it, but this press release left out a lot of information.
The hard work has and was done from the start to his last murder many years ago. The DNA profile has been there for many years and has been put up against numerous suspects to no avail. They discredit author Michelle McNamara but in her book she specifically wanted to submit his DNA to the genealogy web sites back in 2016 just before she died, and that is what they did here even though they are avoiding the question. This task force wasn't needed. The answer was sitting there waiting to be found once one of the killers relatives submitted their DNA to the genealogy web sites, that was their break. The police don't want to talk about it because of legality issues. They basically submitted the DNA to the web sites as if it was their own (a fictitious person), and apparently one of the killers relatives had also done the same thing. So they were notified of a familial DNA match and worked it out from there.
Ok, cold case investigator (retired now) Paul Holes uploaded a sample of the DNA from the GSK. That led them to a 3rd cousin and some other relatives. From that they started to build a family tree working from birth records, etc...he gives an interview that explains the process. From this it's narrowed down to 5 possible guys given age and other factors. While staking DiAngelo out for a week they decided to collect a DNA sample he discards in public rather than interviewing him and asking for a sample. They were afraid he might run or commit suicide. So he discards a tissue in a public place. The collect it. Compare that sample to the sample of the GSK and it was a match.
Tell me how in the hell can a city / state let a mass murder/rapists run loose for 40 years. One rape and murder demanded that it be solved. Well I’m glad you caught him. From the looks of it he’s to damn old to hurt anybody anymore. To give him life at this point is no consolation. He will die within 5 years. Unless you stick a needle in his arm, nothing you do will have little to no affect. He is allowed due process, but let’s not drag this out. Put this predator out of his misery. He has no value for human life.
I moved to LA (UCLA) in 1976. My classmates and I were never worried about the Golden State killer. We were worried about the Hillside strangler. My friends who went to Davis never said anything about this particular killer. I think she overstates the matter. There were lots of people being murdered in California in those days. He wasn't even the only mass murderer.
Deborah Freedman I lived in Highland Park at that time and the youngest Hillside Stranglers victim was my age. One victim was found very close to my house. So scary. I was glad to move away from there not long after that. I remember being told not to go outside alone. I never knew much about it though, and for some reason, earlier this year I read everything I could find about the case. I even pulled up my old address in Highland Park on google earth when I found out that one of the victims was found there. After reading about it, I now know why my parents and teachers were so adamant about telling us to stay inside.
There was evidence was all along, guaranteed. How else can this arrest be justified after so long. So the question is, how much negligence was invloved? Who are the people responsible for ignoring he evidence and letting him go? This pony show is to mitigate the damage to their credibility.
Whoever tipped them off deserves the primary praise & monetary reward. Whether it was a family member, a reader of Michelle MacNamara's book or law enforcement, somebody had to trigger the surveillance & they are the real heroes. Props to all the people who worked on this case over the years--Paul Holes, Richard Shelby, Larry Crompton, Kat Winters & Michelle MacNamara to name a few. They all contributed so much in terms of documenting & preserving evidence over the years. I hope his victims & their surviving families feel some small sense of satisfaction from this.
One of his relatives was arrested on a drug charge and had to give DNA They then got a hit on the family congenial DNA I think it’s called They looked into that family line and narrowed it down to him Started following him until he discarded some DNA then tested that and matched it
Oh I am NOT a Californian, but I DID LIVE in California in the very late ‘80’s early ‘90’s, I DID sign the prop 69, for no other reason than the very small amount I personally knew about AND BELIEVED IN!!!! I had three small children’s that time, and me being only 23 I would do absolutely anything to help, and if signing a petition for EVERY PERSON ALIVE I would sign it!!! I am VERY elated that he has been found and with DNA FINALLY!!!!!!!!
Kathy W It will be disclosed in the near future; however, if he is not sentenced to execution, there will be outrage from the public and especially from the left. I believe he should die for the atrocities he committed which emphasizes and highlights the fact that even in this day and age, Caucasian police officers aren’t safe from execution. After all, he committed 12 killings and 50 rapes throughout just 10 years. One should die from these heinous acts. In addition, this will make an enlightening statement and may cause race tensions to calm down a bit in this divided time.
Kathy W To directly answer your question. Yes, California does have the death penalty. (Unreliable) Source: www.answers.com/Q/Does_California_have_the_death_penalty.
Thank you so much for all of those that showed up and cared enough to honor the victims, the families and all of us that were tormented and fearful by his prowling, hang-up calls and break-ins even if we weren't attacked....lives were torn apart, lives were destroyed and the State of California was forever a different place...and you have touched on it all. We I hope will find out a lot of answers and why victims were targeted and why he stopped. What created this monster? What makes a human become the most inhumane? Anne Marie, and all of the investigators from day one deserve a lot of thanks....I always knew he was the VR...I hope that the Snellings find some peace to know he is in jail.
Serial Killers are obviously a different bred. Therefore; don't expect a confession. This kind of people keep that to themselves as one last hooray, he might give crumbs but not entire details of his crimes.
I would have spoken before this pompous press conference, the wretched killer, and I would have persouade to speak in order to preserve the dignity of his family, would have more details about his crimes
The death penalty is the only fitting sentence....51 rapes and 12 murders? I don't want him on this planet with my friends or family...I beg of you...do whats right
Lol. We're still waiting on that one. And also if you've heard of the case of Theresa Allore in Quebec. The murder happened 25 years ago. Police didn't even bother investigate.
Tiffany Zhu yeah but Jack the Ripper is dead. It happened so long ago, and he was their problem. Speak for yourself because no, "we" do NOT care. Americans don't even care about their children being shot at school, you think they care about 1880s GB? You have another thing coming...
I suppose yes if he was alive, some of us might care, right? By the way, don't generalize Americans. Some are very protective while others don't care at all.
Why are the police harassing a 72 year old man? Even if he did it, it was 40 years ago, and it's clear he's no longer a threat to society and has rehabilitated. This is just stupid and a waste of tax payer's money. Let this man walk.
If they would’ve listen to the Visalia, police department when they came down to talk to the Sacramento PD, the Sacramento PD would not talk to them, that probably would’ve made a difference. Incompetent police work
I love how everybody is patting themselves on the back like they've done such awesome police work and investigative work when it really just came down to a Genealogy website database. Let's not forget 40 years and they had nothing. Regardless glad this person was caught
Haha yeah I was curious why they weren't saying how they started to look at his dna u don't jus say oh we started watching him and got his dna , huh I had to go to wiki to find out yup dna family tree no doggied police work lol
Cant believe a nice guy like Patton Oswald is part of this story, his deceased wife, who was a writer who before she died wrote three quarters of a novel in pursuit of this monster. I have a wife and kids and I cant imagine how hard/proud that man feels today. All the best my friend, and may your wife rest in peace.
Did he retire from the police department, is he collecting a pension, did they give him a recommendation when you left the job? I'd like to know who his Partners were all those years beit a spouse family member coworkers whomever Other people knew he was a bad guy they should be held accountable as well
They had no follow-up when he walked away from his police job. It's really hard to get a police job. Nobody innocent ever walks away rather than be investigated. All of these people should be ashamed. Thanks, Michelle.
Fuck Your Feelings never. You'll never find me. My real name is Jake Blumenthal and you'll never find out my real name. Oh shit, why did I just tell you my name? Uh... Just pretend I didn't reply to you. Bye!

Hats off to Paul!! I know he’s the man behind all this!
"Searching for more than 40 years" yea right, searching my ass. They only did it now cause of the book.
Yup 💯💯💯
Thinking Özyıldırım
Yeah but just because they say something doesn't mean it's true (I know nothing about this so I don't really have an opinion but I'm just pointing that out)
Thinking Özyıldırım you're such a naive person do you believe everything everyone tells you.....
truly pathetic
That shows just how ignorant you are of this case. This case has been going on for forty years, and the book while very good listed information that was already common knowledge to people who followed it.
1976? Ten years before I was born. To the victims and their families who lost a loved one, and to those who became the killer's victim, I send you all my prayers and condolences all the way from Marysville ca. Thank you.
Tf?
Look at all the grandstanding....it wasn't even the cops that caught him. And it's because of them that he was free till now. And a DNA ancestry ad caught him. Look at how they are acting. Good job, give yourself a good pat on the back.
They probably had to wait till all this dirty cops buddies was retired to get to bottom of this because of covering for him.
He was only a cop for a few years. Considering the guy's personality and demeanor, I doubt he made many friends on the force.
We lived in Sac from 1986 thru September 1st,1990. There were always rumor of dirty cops, with the worst cops being in Roseville Ca
veronica beck I agree! Always had trouble with the Roseville police dept.
Y'all was right dirty ass cops and it's plenty of more they won't bust out til the next 59 years
I believe it
I'm glad they caught this sorry excuse for "human". I just hope they never catch *Dexter*
still the best serial killer show ever
The Doc Nope. Mind Hunters is the shit.
never could get into that sadly to say
I just finished watching the series on ID, about this case. I randomly googled, to see if there were any updates.
Congratulations, California!
Don't be racist in these comments please, just be happy he is caught.
"The Golden State Killer" has lived a Golden life all these years, does he care now what happens to him?.
It took this long to get an old man behind bars 🤔🤔🤔🤔
well dude he wasn't an old man this whole time lolol people age you know
People wanting props for doing their jobs. Sad
Wouldn't you commend someone for locking up a serial killer/rapist? I mean this is a cold case. It's almost as good as finding Jack the Ripper, but not quite.
Everyone likes to be told they're doing a good job, no matter where you work. What's so sad about that?
Easy money they didn't earn why not laugh all the way to the bank with all that ill gotten gain.
He looks like trinity from dexter
the lamb sauce haha !
facts crazy
AbnormalMortal thx i changed it
the lamb sauce He looks like an even older Ed O’Neal
arthur mitchell
ok he used a flashlight in his attacks!! and was an expert at restraining people!! no one ever thought to check a list of discharged or fired police officers and interview them? he was fired for shoplifting a dog repellent and hammer from a hardware store!!??no one thought that was strange behavior? does not sound to me like the best and the...
He used a FleshLight, fo real???
Serial killers weren't well known
I wish she wouldn't talk so much about the past, and just say how it happened and what went down. I mean I still don't know how this particular ex cop came into question in the first place. It's not like he's young enough to resemble those pictures they put up. I mean don't get me wrong I believe he did it, but this press release left out a lot of information.
The hard work has and was done from the start to his last murder many years ago. The DNA profile has been there for many years and has been put up against numerous suspects to no avail. They discredit author Michelle McNamara but in her book she specifically wanted to submit his DNA to the genealogy web sites back in 2016 just before she died, and that is what they did here even though they are avoiding the question. This task force wasn't needed. The answer was sitting there waiting to be found once one of the killers relatives submitted their DNA to the genealogy web sites, that was their break. The police don't want to talk about it because of legality issues. They basically submitted the DNA to the web sites as if it was their own (a fictitious person), and apparently one of the killers relatives had also done the same thing. So they were notified of a familial DNA match and worked it out from there.
Ok, cold case investigator (retired now) Paul Holes uploaded a sample of the DNA from the GSK. That led them to a 3rd cousin and some other relatives. From that they started to build a family tree working from birth records, etc...he gives an interview that explains the process. From this it's narrowed down to 5 possible guys given age and other factors. While staking DiAngelo out for a week they decided to collect a DNA sample he discards in public rather than interviewing him and asking for a sample. They were afraid he might run or commit suicide. So he discards a tissue in a public place. The collect it. Compare that sample to the sample of the GSK and it was a match.
His wife listening to all the locations listed like "wow.. we lived there... been there too"
He old asf he already lived his life 😂
J Mariskovic True
It was. Bob Saget.
No, it was Sam Hyde.
Vicious Zero oof
Dom-della-nooch
Lol ur a fool
Solorflare99 *_NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...!_*
The original "NightStalker".
Tell me how in the hell can a city / state let a mass murder/rapists run loose for 40 years. One rape and murder demanded that it be solved. Well I’m glad you caught him. From the looks of it he’s to damn old to hurt anybody anymore. To give him life at this point is no consolation. He will die within 5 years. Unless you stick a needle in his arm, nothing you do will have little to no affect. He is allowed due process, but let’s not drag this out. Put this predator out of his misery. He has no value for human life.
I moved to LA (UCLA) in 1976. My classmates and I were never worried about the Golden State killer. We were worried about the Hillside strangler. My friends who went to Davis never said anything about this particular killer. I think she overstates the matter. There were lots of people being murdered in California in those days. He wasn't even the only mass murderer.
Deborah Freedman 55 murders among other things like rape, etc.
Deborah Freedman I lived in Highland Park at that time and the youngest Hillside Stranglers victim was my age. One victim was found very close to my house. So scary. I was glad to move away from there not long after that. I remember being told not to go outside alone. I never knew much about it though, and for some reason, earlier this year I read everything I could find about the case. I even pulled up my old address in Highland Park on google earth when I found out that one of the victims was found there. After reading about it, I now know why my parents and teachers were so adamant about telling us to stay inside.
Basically don't go outside.
I can’t watch this 1 hour video. But for sure let me know when it drops on Netflix! 🔥
lol at the guy at 14:00. "We found one killer after 40 years, therefore we should not be cirtizised for anything we are doing"
For real
Paul Holes is the true hero of this investigation!
Thank you Michelle. SSDGM
I think Abraham Lincoln killer gonna be caught next.
Nah Jack the ripper first
AMAN J Wasn't it John Wilkes Booth?
Only Jimmy Hoffer to find then!
😂😂😂😂...and the Zodiac after that
@@anthonys6417 Jack The Ripper was most likely H.H Holmes
When everyone says he's white.
YOU MEAN HES WHITE ...........LETS ALL GET ICE CREAM NOW
WE ARE ALL SAFE
rigomortisfxstudios I'd rather not. Ice cream is probably A pedophile's Thing
LiL E He's gonna distribute it in a questionably beaten up van with a terrible loudspeaker playing nursery rhyme music haha
There was evidence was all along, guaranteed. How else can this arrest be justified after so long.
So the question is, how much negligence was invloved? Who are the people responsible for ignoring he evidence and letting him go? This pony show is to mitigate the damage to their credibility.
Whoever tipped them off deserves the primary praise & monetary reward. Whether it was a family member, a reader of Michelle MacNamara's book or law enforcement, somebody had to trigger the surveillance & they are the real heroes. Props to all the people who worked on this case over the years--Paul Holes, Richard Shelby, Larry Crompton, Kat Winters & Michelle MacNamara to name a few. They all contributed so much in terms of documenting & preserving evidence over the years. I hope his victims & their surviving families feel some small sense of satisfaction from this.
Been reading on this case because it was in my home town, finally glad that after 40 something years that this guy is going to be put behind bars
I can see the 1 like 1 pray coming
waaaaaay at the end like " Oh, by the way he was a cop"
- dafuq
Well what the hell info did they have that sent them down this road?? They don't say so annoying!
Amber: D.N.A I believe, but why did they used that not earlier ? This stinkes from all sides.
+José Bos they had to get his personal DNA as well they didn't have anything to compare it to
One of his relatives was arrested on a drug charge and had to give DNA
They then got a hit on the family congenial DNA I think it’s called
They looked into that family line and narrowed it down to him
Started following him until he discarded some DNA then tested that and matched it
Matt Edwards wow thank you! That is crazy!
GENwatch
Oh I am NOT a Californian, but I DID LIVE in California in the very late ‘80’s early ‘90’s, I DID sign the prop 69, for no other reason than the very small amount I personally knew about AND BELIEVED IN!!!! I had three small children’s that time, and me being only 23 I would do absolutely anything to help, and if signing a petition for EVERY PERSON ALIVE I would sign it!!!
I am VERY elated that he has been found and with DNA FINALLY!!!!!!!!
I was just reading a book about him, haven’t even finished it yet. What a horrible person, I hope they have the right guy
What the hell is she doin? Tryna put us to sleep?
She should be a preacher..blah blah, blah....
preachers are pedophiles, she should rather not one be one of them.
mark nvt....I'm referring to her verbosity, here...not at all recommending anyone become a preacher! lol
I see that there is a lot of bigotry and racism regarding a certain race in the comments in this video.
AntiAcademicAntithesis please elaborate.
Is it because he was a white cop?
AntiAcademicAntithesis yes, sad isn't it. There is always one in the crowd. I am thankful they caught him. I wonder if Calif has the death penalty.
Juan Alej Look for yourself. There’s at least a stereotypical or prejudiced statement every other comment.
Kathy W It will be disclosed in the near future; however, if he is not sentenced to execution, there will be outrage from the public and especially from the left.
I believe he should die for the atrocities he committed which emphasizes and highlights the fact that even in this day and age, Caucasian police officers aren’t safe from execution. After all, he committed 12 killings and 50 rapes throughout just 10 years. One should die from these heinous acts. In addition, this will make an enlightening statement and may cause race tensions to calm down a bit in this divided time.
Kathy W To directly answer your question. Yes, California does have the death penalty.
(Unreliable) Source: www.answers.com/Q/Does_California_have_the_death_penalty.
i think they knew but they didnt want this to blow back on the pd in that era surrounding all the other serial killers in that area at the time .
All government employees have to be required to submit their DNA into the data bank.
When they refuse you have to suspect wrongdoing.
Thank you so much for all of those that showed up and cared enough to honor the victims, the families and all of us that were tormented and fearful by his prowling, hang-up calls and break-ins even if we weren't attacked....lives were torn apart, lives were destroyed and the State of California was forever a different place...and you have touched on it all. We I hope will find out a lot of answers and why victims were targeted and why he stopped. What created this monster? What makes a human become the most inhumane? Anne Marie, and all of the investigators from day one deserve a lot of thanks....I always knew he was the VR...I hope that the Snellings find some peace to know he is in jail.
Serial Killers are obviously a different bred. Therefore; don't expect a confession. This kind of people keep that to themselves as one last hooray, he might give crumbs but not entire details of his crimes.
I think he's so narcissistic that he's going to slip up and inadvertently reveal a detail that only the perp would know.
serial killers are genetically unfit
I would have spoken before this pompous press conference, the wretched killer, and I would have persouade to speak in order to preserve the dignity of his family, would have more details about his crimes
Ed kemper confessed
Actually, many serial killers love to talk about all the details of all their crimes. They are proud of themselves and get off on reliving it.
Y’all were too focused on the Son of Sam at the time to do anything about this monster! #Fact =) xoxo
he was a cop when he committed the murders🤤
Not even a pretense of presumption of innocence at the press conference. A commercial for how great they all are.
It took you 40 years to catch him. That's nothing to be proud of.
National DNA day? Does everything have a holiday lol
But what about the Scranton strangler
Joe Biden ?
Joe Biden? 😰
Toby Flanderson is the Scranton Strangler
The Tattletale Strangler
What about the Lakeshore Strangler
And now lets catch the long beach series killer.
Sam Hyde is the long beach serial killer
Start at the police department :P
Sure?!
Snoop Dogg?
The death penalty is the only fitting sentence....51 rapes and 12 murders? I don't want him on this planet with my friends or family...I beg of you...do whats right
I’m glad they caught him
What type of scooby doo garbage is this
Good. Now find Jack the Ripper.
Edit: For fuck sake guys it was a joke.
Lol. We're still waiting on that one. And also if you've heard of the case of Theresa Allore in Quebec. The murder happened 25 years ago. Police didn't even bother investigate.
Anonymous67 why? Jack the Ripper was British we don't care.
Because we do care. Although evidence was left at the scene, this is a super old and mysterious cold case. So what if it's british? We're all humans!
Tiffany Zhu yeah but Jack the Ripper is dead. It happened so long ago, and he was their problem. Speak for yourself because no, "we" do NOT care. Americans don't even care about their children being shot at school, you think they care about 1880s GB? You have another thing coming...
I suppose yes if he was alive, some of us might care, right?
By the way, don't generalize Americans. Some are very protective while others don't care at all.
😱
Drum Styx Guy used Guns, let's keep guns out of hands of people like him instead of just locking people up.
Tabithia Moore yes keep guns away from police
The police in the Bay Area wants you to not have guns so you can be a victim to criminals and them.
Tabithia Moore I mean California is already taking guns from criminals
Tabithia Moore gUy UsEd GuNs 💩
Why are the police harassing a 72 year old man? Even if he did it, it was 40 years ago, and it's clear he's no longer a threat to society and has rehabilitated. This is just stupid and a waste of tax payer's money. Let this man walk.
If they would’ve listen to the Visalia, police department when they came down to talk to the Sacramento PD, the Sacramento PD would not talk to them, that probably would’ve made a difference.
Incompetent police work
What has the world come to.
Aziz what you mean he is finally caught.
Toori Baba r u mad?
Artur Zinurov yes why did the catch him, he's the good guy.
Aziz its come to a stop, the world is a killers heaven, a playground where they steal the swing set called life from every child.
Aziz Bitches And whores?
I spent much more time reading comments than listening to these bloviators.
I love how everybody is patting themselves on the back like they've done such awesome police work and investigative work when it really just came down to a Genealogy website database. Let's not forget 40 years and they had nothing. Regardless glad this person was caught
Haha yeah I was curious why they weren't saying how they started to look at his dna u don't jus say oh we started watching him and got his dna , huh I had to go to wiki to find out yup dna family tree no doggied police work lol
He was a former police officer! Let that sink in.
Cant believe a nice guy like Patton Oswald is part of this story, his deceased wife, who was a writer who before she died wrote three quarters of a novel in pursuit of this monster. I have a wife and kids and I cant imagine how hard/proud that man feels today. All the best my friend, and may your wife rest in peace.
Did he retire from the police department, is he collecting a pension, did they give him a recommendation when you left the job?
I'd like to know who his Partners were all those years beit a spouse family member coworkers whomever
Other people knew he was a bad guy they should be held accountable as well
He was only a cop for a few years, then fired for shoplifting dog repellant and a hammer.
40 years of police incompetence
How on earth could you even think that?
This some Dexter shit forreal !
They had no follow-up when he walked away from his police job. It's really hard to get a police job. Nobody innocent ever walks away rather than be investigated. All of these people should be ashamed. Thanks, Michelle.
Why is he just now being arrested?
Clinton News Network actually put out some non fake news wow
Betcha the Zodiac Killer is next.
Fuck Your Feelings never. You'll never find me. My real name is Jake Blumenthal and you'll never find out my real name. Oh shit, why did I just tell you my name? Uh... Just pretend I didn't reply to you. Bye!

Did MacGyver helped the police or CSI or criminal minds im confused
I'm glad they caught him but they did do a good job of not mentioning they used an illegal tactic to get his DNA matched using 23 and me or something
Ive personally met a few cops in my lifetime that I swear to god were straight up psychopaths, like they would shoot and kill someone for no reason at all and not lose a wink of sleep..... They all made me nervous as fuck.....
