The Golden State Killer - Joseph James DeAngelo (Part 1)

The Visalia Ransacker. The East Area Rapist. The Original Night Stalker. Before learning it was the same person, the Golden State Killer had a lot of names. But it would take over 30 years from the time of his last kill to learn his real name: Joseph James DeAngelo.

Part 1 of this story guides us through the crimes of the Golden State Killer and leads all the way up to the moment that changed everything in this investigation: the involvement of a heroic author that shined a light so bright on this case that DeAngelo could no longer hide.
