'Golden State Killer' suspect pleads guilty to 13 murders, admits dozens of rapes

SACRAMENTO, Calif. - An ex-policeman turned violent serial prowler known as the “Golden State Killer” pleaded guilty on Monday to 13 murders and confessed to dozens of rapes and home invasions that terrorized much of California during the 1970s and ‘80s.

Prosecutors said they wanted to ensure that the dwindling number of aging survivors, victims’ families, witnesses and investigators would live to see resolution of the case, saving them from legal proceedings that might have dragged on for another decade. DeAngelo, dressed in orange jail garb, sat expressionless in a wheelchair, his mouth agape, throughout much of the seven-hour proceeding.

DeAngelo’s arrest in 2018 capped more than 40 years of investigation in a case that authorities said was finally solved by comparing crime-scene DNA samples to information on genealogy websites consumers use to explore their ancestry.

They used DNA samples taken from his family members which authorities got from a genealogy website. That is how they found him.

There be monsters.

Obviously given sedatives....show your true self you coward.

The police dept was lousy.

TrueCrimeDiary you got him 😰

How soon can we fry him!?

This is amazing he's been right under there feet the whole time!!!

Oh. Another white officer

Wow!

He looks gone.

我怀着主观恶意猜测，如果没有今年的警察跪杀黑人以及不停爆出的警察恶意对有色人种使用暴力致死致伤的视频导致的社会动荡，这个白人警察大概率会安安稳稳在监狱度过余生，不会老成这样颤颤巍巍的被拉出来专门审判了吧？

Darn bad apple.

'an ex-police officer accused of being the ‘Golden State Killer,’' sure seems like a strange way to say admitted serial rapist and serial killer

I bet he wasn't a very good police officer.

I read about the case this morning, the guy is a veteran to.. What a low life harming those girls. hang
