When you hear about Mr Cruel, in Australia, you will be shocked.
If there is a connection!!!
The homecoming queen dodged a bullet and married someone else. I love to see her interviewed.
Have they taken a moment from patting themselves on the back yet? Have any of the actual detectives who worked these cases been mentioned? Have they mentioned the accused was a cop? Have they said anything yet about how they determined he is the GSK/EAR?
I was in high school when the attacks in the Sacramento area happened in the late 1970's. The EAR moved from the east area to the south area of Sacramento because of intense police and private citizen patrols using the then popular CB radios.
There's a creek behind my parents house in the south area of Sacramento. The EAR was known to use creeks to travel undetected. I remember police helicopters flying up and down the creek with their bright light shining on several nights. He was also known to climb on the roofs of homes to do surveillance.
I personally didn't see what happened one night in 1978 but some friends of mine saw what had to be the EAR. A couple of my friends where hanging out late at night in front of one friends house down the street from where I lived.
My friend saw a man on his next door neighbors roof. He was a dumb 17 year old kid so what did he do? He jumped on the neighbors roof chasing after this guy. The guy jumped off the roof into the home's backyard and then jumped the fence into the backyard of the home directly behind. He yelled this information to the friend below.
All of the jumping,running and yelling on the neighbors roof got the home owners attention. He came out with a shotgun. Luckily my friend wasn't shot.
The other friend that stayed on the ground jumped into his car (1967 Ranchero) drove around the corner and saw a guy taking off in a VW bug, He chased the guy. So he chases the VW at high speed for a only a couple of miles when a SACPD car lights him up and pulls him over.
My friend tells him what happened, the cop lets him go, telling him to go home. The VW was long gone by then. Years later I've read about the EAR using a VW.
I believe to this day that my friends had an encounter with the EAR.
I've always thought that he would never be caught for his crimes but am extremely happy he is finally facing justice.

I thought the same dang thing. Egad! They almost broke their arms patting themselves on the back. Silly.

well the DA did say there was no connection...I totally don't get the Mr Cruel association. None of the Golden State Killer's victims (that I'm aware of) was underage, while none of Mr Cruel's victims was adult.
Yeah, I've been wondering that too. Just like the BTK killer, Dennis Rader did. He was a member of a BTK sleuthing community when he was committing his own crimes. I heard he was actively engaged in online discussions about his own murders and gave insights about the murderer (himself). :facepalm:

I'm so confused by this article!? How old this babysitter and her parents?!

I have a friend who joined the LAFD in the early 80's and had to take a polygraph...It was also a hiring requirement in the late-1970s. I knew people who went through the hiring process at a couple of California police departments at that time.
