Serial Killer Autopsy: Joseph James DeAngelo

Bol

Serial Killer Autopsy: Joseph James DeAngelo, The Golden State KillerFor over four decades, he was a ghost, a predator who terrorized California with over 120 burglaries, 50 rapes, and 13 murders, then vanished into silence. Until genetic genealogy finally unmasked the monster hiding in plain sight.Joseph James DeAngelo seemed unremarkable: a former police officer, a father, an angry old man yelling about property lines in suburban Sacramento. But behind this ordinary facade lurked one of America's most prolific serial predators, the Visalia Ransacker, the East Area Rapist, the Original Night Stalker. For twelve years, from 1974 to 1986, he brutalized communities across California with methodical precision, then stopped completely, living undetected among his neighbors for thirty-two years.Serial Killer Autopsy: Joseph James DeAngelo, The Golden State Killer provides the most comprehensive forensic examination of this unprecedented case. Unlike Edmund Kemper, who cooperated extensively with psychological evaluation, DeAngelo has remained largely silent, refusing to explain his motivations or provide insight into his crimes. This book reconstructs his psychology through his methodology, his crimes, investigative evidence, and the revolutionary forensic techniques that finally caught him.Drawing on court documents, victim testimonies, investigator interviews, and forensic analysis, this is the definitive account of the case that changed cold case investigation forever. It's a story of unprecedented evil, extraordinary investigative persistence, groundbreaking science, and the message that time no longer protects those who leave DNA evidence behind.The cop became a predator. The predator thought he'd escaped. Science proved him wrong."I'll be gone in the dark" - Michelle McNamara's haunting phrase for the Golden State Killer. But he wasn't gone. He was hiding. Until genetic genealogy brought him into the light.
