Book Hunting a Psychopath  The East Area Rapist   Original Night Stalker Investigation   The Original Investigator Speaks Out

Download or read book Hunting a Psychopath The East Area Rapist Original Night Stalker Investigation The Original Investigator Speaks Out written by Richard Shelby and published by BookLocker.com, Inc.. This book was released on 2015-03-27 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: JUNE 16, 2016 - At a press conference today in Sacramento, the FBI and local law enforcement agencies announced a $50,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the East Area Rapist/killer along with a nationwide multimedia campaign to once again bring the case to the public’s attention. Hunting A Psychopath chronicles the on-going search for the identity of the serial rapist and murderer known both as the East Area Rapist and Original Night Stalker. The author first lays the ground work for how the investigation was conducted. Then using what reports are still available, plus some personal insights, he examines each assault in the order they occurred. Gradually the methods used by the EAR/ONS in first searching out his victims, then stalking them, come to light. The EAR/ONS first surfaced in June,1976,in Sacramento, CA. He was last heard from in May, 1986,in Irvine, CA, where he brutally murdered an eighteen year old woman. In between those years he stayed busy, assaulting fifty-three people, and murdering twelve more, while spreading a blanket of fear across central CA and parts of Southern CA. It has been over thirty-years now,and still he has not been brought to justice. Although there have been other unsolved crimes of this same nature and of even greater magnitude, this series seems to have had a lasting impact on the public -- enough so that a virtual army of private citizens are pursuing this investigation on their own. When time permits, there are full time police officers who also work this investigation. By examining the information from each assault, it gradually becomes clear just how meticulous the EAR/ONS was. Every detail, from selecting a victim, to the actual assault, appear to have been carefully planned and orchestrated. The EAR/ONS was as devoted to committing sexual assaults and murders as anyone devoted to their own profession. In a distorted way, he was a professional rapist / murderer, and quite probably a certifiable psychopath. Perhaps this continuing interest is because those wanting to involve themselves in the investigation know it can still be brought to a satisfactory conclusion.

Book Sudden Terror

Download or read book Sudden Terror written by Larry Crompton and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is based on the actual case of the East Area Rapist, later also known as the Original Night Stalker, a masked man who terrorized California communities for ten years; 1976 through 1986, and possibly to this day. Because I was not involved in the initial rape investigations, they are written from hundreds of reports, notes, memos, newspaper clippings, conversations and interviews with those who were involved. The crimes are factual. The crimes are real. While all characters and events have direct counterparts in the telling of the story, I have created some dialogue in the interest of readability. The cops in the initial rapes are not factual, their actions are. Their names and descriptions are completely fictitious. The names of the victims, witnesses and suspects are fictitious; the terror, the dialogue during the crimes, and the investigations are real. The cops involved in the cases after I was involved are real, their names and dialogue is factual, the investigations are real. The pain and terror may have diminished in the minds of the victims, I hope that the pain does not return. My intent is to tell the story without endangering the privacy or the dignity of the victims. They have suffered enough.

A very deadly criminal this man was prepared to do whatever it took to be free. Many active and retired law enforcement still worked the case that had become cold. The FBI has once again joined in the chase. It has been 40 years since the first known attacks in Northern California.

Book excerpt: One Golden State Killer, TWO East Area Rapists.When she saw the middle composite of the East Area Rapist, she gasped. Her eyes fixated on every detail of his familiar face. Under her breath she whispered, "What have you done?"Over forty years ago a mad man roamed the streets. He was known first as the East Area Rapist, then the Original Night Stalker, and later the Golden State Killer. He held much of Northern and Southern California in the palm of his hand, frozen with fear, in the 1970s and 1980s. He was thought to have committed over 120 burglaries, raped 50 women, and murdered 13 people. Then, he was still.In 2016, the FBI launched a nationwide campaign to catch this predator. They shared three composite images on every news station and all over the internet. In 2018, Joseph DeAngelo was identified through DNA he left at crime scenes in Southern California. In 2020, he pleaded guilty to 13 counts of first-degree murder and was required to admit to all of the rapes and other uncharged crimes as part of his plea deal to avoid the death penalty.But the investigators were only half right. There was another blue-eyed monster who roamed the Sacramento area as the East Area Rapist. Yes, there were two. They captured one, but the other one slipped away.How does an innocent child's life evolve into a life with a serial rapist? Easier than one might imagine. Meet Cabbagehead."Cabbagehead falls under the description of a 'page turner.'Helen LaRoe tells a story the mythologist, Joseph Campbell, would recognize: the classical tale of The Hero's Journey.

The trial estimated to begin in about four years will be unprecedented as several jurisdictions will try DeAngelo in Sacramento at the same time. There have been multitudes of articles and information that have come out in the five months since the arrest. DeAngelo was found from DNA left at the scenes of his many rapes and then murders over a ten year time span 1976-1986.

Many ran the idea that the criminal was in Law Enforcement throughout the many years. Mr. Smith discusses how we could have and should have determined that this man was indeed a cop.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He's the most prolific, enigmatic, and dangerous offender the State of California has ever known... yet he remains unidentified and unpunished to this day. With over one hundred burglaries, fifty rapes, and possibly a dozen murders, the "East Area Rapist" / "Golden State Killer" / "Original Night Stalker" was truly one of history's most vile and heinous criminals. He seemed to appear out of nowhere in the mid-1970s near Sacramento, California, where he began a series of rapes and murders that left police baffled and communities on-edge. He couldn't be tracked, he couldn't be found, and he couldn't be stopped. Over a ten-year period, towns like Modesto, Davis, Concord, San Ramon, San Jose, Danville, Fremont, Walnut Creek, Goleta, Ventura, Dana Point, Irvine, and the neighborhoods of Sacramento were all violated by this monster. He left behind thousands of clues spread throughout over a dozen jurisdictions but still somehow outmaneuvered efforts to capture him at every turn. This book culls together information from every source possible to present a comprehensive rundown of each and every attack. Evidence is explained, myths are debunked, and viable leads are presented. Other cases which might be related like the Visalia Ransacker, the Ripon Court shooting, the Maggiore murders, and the Eva Davidson Taylor murder are explored. Never before has such a detailed and thorough chronological volume been published about this case. Going over the nuances and evidence with such granularity is a worthwhile exercise. This case is solvable, and the offender is probably still alive. The clues to his identity are in here. Because, as they say... The Devil is in the details.

Book excerpt: Between 1976 and 1979, a prolific serial rapist prowled northern California's leafy neighborhoods and affluent suburbs in the dead of night. When the rapist found a home to his liking, he would break in, confront the residents at gunpoint, then rape the female while her male partner lay bound and helpless nearby. In 2001, a forensic scientist with the Orange County Sheriff's Department linked the rapist's DNA to ten murders which occurred in southern California during the 1980s. Detectives dubbed this offender the East Area Rapist-Original Night Stalker (EAR-ONS), but despite unprecedented investigative efforts, his identity remains a mystery. Drawing on years of academic research, Hot Prowl offers a comprehensive analysis of the EAR-ONS's life and crimes.
