[@29Guadalupe01]

This doesn’t give me any satisfaction at all, like other criminals getting sentenced for the crimes they commited. This one just feels like “yeah I’m guilty just put me away since i already lived my life” he did what he wanted and got to live all of his life as a free man while other people are in jail for doing less serious crimes or some not even having committed a crime at all.

[@HassanPoyo]

He won at life 🤷‍♂️

[@jellyjamese3134]

Yes, but at least now he’s been identified. And everyone will remember him for the monster that he was. The real disgusting part is that he should’ve been a suspect from the get-go. Being a policeman at the time it makes sense that he would get so much personal information on his victims before striking. He’s a prime example as to how police officers are almost never apprehended for being rapists or abusers.

Michelle McNamara played a huge role in catching this guy. She was the woman who brought all of these police departments together to share evidence. Nobody knew about this predator until she turned the spotlight on him. To only put a small blip of her name in this video is a shame. Give her the credit she deserves.

[@annerobles3585]

Michelle McNamara played a huge role in bringing this case to the public’s attention by writing about about him and giving him a catchier moniker; however, did not play any role in catching him. He was arrested two years after her death and he was not a person of interest on her list, not was he on her radar. Paul Holes and Barbara Rae Vetner are the ones who had the largest role in catching DeAngelo.

[@sandrafaith]

I mean, she coined the name "Golden State Killer"...

[@clarewatkins210]

Anne Robles my understanding is that she gathered and synthesized the evidence from the different departments and is actually the one who came up with the idea to use genealogy sites to find him. Definitely more than just creating publicity.

[@kelseyslade4423]

I work at a chickfila, and one of the older gentlemen I served a lot was arrested for a cold case murder. He and his friend killed his girlfriend and left her in her car in 1974. He always came into the store with his granddaughter. He always came off a little strange but we figured it was because he was just old and quiet. One of our team leaders found a WAFB article and saw his face on Facebook after the arrest and showed us. We were all REALLY shocked.

The police didn't have the technology back then to solve this case, It's justice he is now behind bars so be happy and stop sulking about what we should've done or what could've been done but accept the fact that he was caught

[@PoochieCollins]

The dude could live another 10-20 years, and during a period that he's old, weak health, and won't mesh with most other prisoners. And more importantly, his capture gives closure to victims and will help scare off some potential serial violent criminals.

Y’all should have mentioned Cece Moore because she is the one that narrowed it down to the two people and she was right

I came here to say the same thing. It was Cece's work that led to his arrest, and they totally snubbed her of the credit in this video.

[@suicunetobigaara]

I had no idea. Can you say how she did this? (In the interest of crediting her and because I am curious)

[@Brooke-mf5jc]

suicunetobigaara Yes. There is a show called The Genetic Detective, and is about someone named Cece Moore who uses genetics to find criminals. In this specific episode it was only a brief mention, but she was taking about The Golden State Killers trial. She stated that she wished she could be there because she is the one that narrowed it down to him and someone else.

[@DiaperSNiFFER]

@@Brooke-mf5jc damn smart girl

[@JdawgSpo]

Cece moore did not work on this case. It was Barbara Rae-Venter that was the genealogist

[@supportyourtroopsathletes6460]

I found his capture interesting but the sad thing is, he will never really pay for his crimes at his age. His victims did not have a choice and many died, he lived his life and for the remainder of his life he is living free behind bars, at his age with medical issues, no other inmates would bother him for inmate justice even though he's a former cop. He is getting free food and medical though he won't live much longer in his natural life. His life without parole would be most likely 2 years or less before death and after his body would be given to his family. The prison system should dump his body in a landfill under trash instead.

[@theo.p.o.g.7695]

A

[@jackhamilton9604]

well thankfully his capture isn't for you, me or anyone else he hasn't effected, it's for the victims, and they are ever so satisfied, and if that's how they feel, then this is definitely justice

[@jackhamilton9604]

“At his age no other inmates would bother him for inmate justice” Whitey Bulger brutally beaten to death in prison at age 89

[@supportyourtroopsathletes6460]

@@jackhamilton9604 ... What is the difference from Bulger to him? A mafia hit is for life until the target is caught. The Mafias are still very much active today and since 1980, they kept a overall much lower profile however. Sure inmates don't like a active or recently former police officer however a cop from decades ago that was corrupt, they would see different. The people he raped and stole from were all adults as well, no kids so they would look at him differently. So yes, I stand by what I said.

I understand that the statute of limitations are in place to ensure that evidence for a case has not diminished/muddied with time, but when there’s clear, definite evidence that someone committed a heinous crime in the past, that statute becomes more harmful than helpful. Thoughts?

@Willem DaFuckedUp how is a mandatory dna test unconstitutional? everyone doing a job has to give a legal name and photo id usually to get it? how is a DNA test, another way of checking for criminal record unconsitutional?

This is a crazy story ahh I don't think you would do this but I think you should do Andrew Cunanan. U don't have to but this is cool

[@arijones9564]

Shouldn't the title be: How HE was caught? I initially thought there were multiple killers.

What kind of punishment is this? Send him to the next life, there is no way youre telling me he gets to live peacefully for the rest of his life in prison, cared for and looked after. He beat a dog to death, harassed his victims and ruined families. He murdered dozens of people and made people scared to sleep at night. People were scared to go to the grocery store at night. I can't believe this... The only thing good about this case was that the work finding him was not wasted and the families have closure.

God the video really makes me anxious especially since I watched this at night

Citrus heights is like a 10 minute drive away, but ok. That's cool

It's so weird when Buzzfeed Unsolved actually covers solved cases..

RIP Michelle McNamara.

Soooo... this guy was actually on RADAR several times. How did he not get caught earlier? Sometimes you hear “he flew under the radar” but in this case this guy should’ve been a prime suspect! Wow

[@peggypeggy4137]

It's crazy that he didn't get caught before. If you see pictures of him as a young man, he looks quite a bit like the composite. Also, so weird that he got fired as a cop for stealing dog repellent and a hammer. Given his personality, you woud think there would have been a lot of red flags before he got to that point.

Hi buzzfeed I’m a big fan and I have a question could you do a case that as been in my family for years It’s about my great great great grandfather he was dropped on the railroads of Scotland or Ireland and no one can remember where he went and everyone Who was involved is passed away so I was wondering if you could do a episode on it it’s pretty well know it’s kinda of a A long tail that people tell their kids about getting too drunk

I'm from the Sacramento area and my mom and her family moved to Rancho Cordova, CA around the time this was all happening in that area. Some of the houses be broke into were just streets over from where they lived. My grandmother is convinced he was casing their house but he ended up going down to SoCal soon after I guess. There was someone moving between their house and the neighbor, things were stolen, my grandfather found a window lock broken. Some of the locations were just behind my mother's school she taught at years later. He was found in Citrus Heights, CA which is maybe 20-30 from Rancho Cordova. He lived down the street from my mom's coworker. I've been to her house. I've definitely driven past his house. He had family living a street over from my friend. If you watch "I'll Be Gone in the Dark" on HBO, many of the on-site scenes they filmed in Rancho Cordova were right around where I live. He went to my middle school. He went to the high school in the next city over where my brother went (my high school wasn't built yet when he was going to high school). It's really odd, though, because I never heard anything about EAR until he was caught. Given that it was such a big string of crimes that terrified my whole city, my family, I never even heard of him. I don't know why I never did
