Suspected Los Angeles, Calif. Serial Killer Arrested

[OneEyedDiva]

Good thing the police captured him fairly quickly. This maniac killed three people in as many days. Three were homeless, sleeping on the street, so it was initially thought that they would continue to be his targets. The homeless were warned in a press conference to seek shelter and if they remained in the street, to avoid being alone. But he also a suspect in another murder in San Dimas, what was thought to be a robbery gone wrong.

I hope they throw the book at him.

Besides being a psych job maybe he thought the homeless had drugs? Most homeless would probably sell valuable stuff.

Homeless are easy targets and not all are raving lunatics on a street corner

Me too Tish! @WhatInThe From the news report I saw, it seemed like he just walked past and shot them, didn't try to rob them, at least not the homeless ones.

I'm glad they caught him.

They now suspect that based on his history (not made clear in the reports) that it is highly unlikely that these were his first kills. They are asking other police agencies to check and see if any of their unsolved murders fit his MO.
