CA CA - William Suff - Riverside Prostitute Killer and the Lake Elsinore Killer, 1974-1992

[jwiltshire]

William Suff (b. 20/08/50) is known as the Riverside Prostitute Killer or the Lake Elsinore Killer. He was convicted of killing 12 sex workers in 1995.

I'm writing a piece on William Suff and would be interested in speaking to anyone who lived in the area at the time, or anybody with specific information on William Suff.

Also, does anybody have any information on what dates Suff's victims were found? There seems to be some disparity between media reports, with some saying Jan 1987 and others saying April 19th 1988.

Please get in touch if you can help.

Thank you

Corona PD may be able to assist. For awhile, my parents thought our neighbor was a suspect. My father gave a tip to local Corona PD since he would run into them from time to time. Corona was fully aware of the case and actually questioned our neighbor and compared his tire tracks.
