One of his surviving victims, who was 13 at the time, said that she had read enough about him that when he attacked her, she tried to respond in an unexpected way.
“My instinct said don’t let him see you sweat.”
She believed she knew that he got off on seeing the fear of his victims, so each time he threatened to hurt her or her mother she said, “I don’t care.”
Wardlow, now 53 and with a daughter of her own, says that she was...
I saw her on the HLN series. She was a spitfire and is still thankfully. They said, though, if she tried that a few years later it might not have ended up the same.
Golden State Killer suspect may be linked to earlier Cordova cat burglar attacks
As he entered, he made sure to first plot out his escape, and then often headed for the bedroom — where he would linger and watch unsuspecting homeowners sleep. Along the way, he'd grab purses and wallets and sometimes seek out special trinkets like coin collections, car magnets and photos of female residents.
In 1972 and 1973, in this eastern part of Sacramento, this prolific cat burglar struck more than 30 times.
Now decades later, investigators are increasingly convinced Joseph James DeAngelo Jr., who has been charged with eight murders across the state, was this cat burglar. They believe this is where the man they now accuse of being the prolific Golden State Killer got his start, graduating over the next 14 years to increasingly violent and ultimately deadly crimes.
The former police chief also said years ago, DeAngelo once gave him a tour of his home, explaining that he and his wife slept in separate bedrooms. Willick said he wondered if that living arrangement may have enabled DeAngelo to sneak out of his house in the middle of the night.
Anyone following this case, the EAR/ONS boards have lots of information. Many are very sophisticated sleuths and I know some of the families of the victims have followed the board in hopes of finding the guy one day.
Apparently, when DeAngelo was 9 or 10 and his sister was SEVEN years old, 2 airmen at the airbase in Germany where his father were stationed had raped her.
Wow. Aside from how astoundingly sad that is, this says a lot. It doesn't say it explicitly, but they must have tied him up and made him watch. Think they used shoelaces to tie him up just as he used shoelaces to tie up his victims?
Assuming the story is true, what do you think? Does this explain a lot. Sounds a lot like Hannibal Lecter eating people because those WWII partisans ate his sister. Truly sad.

First, I wonder about the veracity of the claim. If it is true, it might explain some of what motivated this guy. He recreated the trauma, reliving it over and over again. It's like growing up in a dysfunctional family unit where, when you're older, you "re create" the same environment at work, in your own home, over again, the same dynamics, but unconsciously. If the men had "uniforms" on that might explain why he became a police officer, too?!
Says his father was abusive and mom, too. I wonder about the parents more than anything else, too. Their dysfunctional marriage, who knows what else he saw?

Noone is born bad. Anyone that commits these crimes, does not come from a warm loving home. There are dynamics that make people this way. What a shame. The last part of his life, is the life he should have been living. I think having those daughters changed him. I wonder if they are ever going to say anything.
