Here are the charges faced by Joseph DeAngelo, whoвЂ™s expected to plead guilty in the Golden State Killer case MondayДЄll told, he admitted harming 87 victims at 53 separate crime scenes spanning 11 California counties in the plea deal that spares him the death penalty, prosecutors said. He alsoВ publicly admitted dozens more sexual assaults for which the statute of limitations had expired.

In June, DeAngelo pleaded guilty to 13 murders and 13 rape-related charges between 19. Until his arrest, she said, вЂњsomething lingered in the shadows - our sense of normalcy, our sense of safety had been raped too.вЂќ Lisa Lilienthal described DeAngelo as a sadistic вЂњboogeymanвЂќ as she testified by video about the attack she witnessed on her mother.

вЂњThe knowledge that DeAngelo will spend the rest of his life in prison for his heinous acts has ended my dark journey so that I may begin a new one.вЂќ вЂњI sang вЂJesus Loves MeвЂ™ in my head as I waited - waited to die,вЂќ Pedretti said. Then DeAngelo attacked her just before Christmas in 1976. вЂњMy world was small, predictable and safe.вЂќ I loved going to school, having sleepovers and going to church,вЂќ Kris Pedretti told the judge. Others planned to tell Superior Court Judge Michael Bowman on Wednesday and Thursday how DeAngeloвЂ™s crimes changed their lives. Nearly two-dozen of his Sacramento County rape victims or their family members confronted him in the courthouse that is otherwise still sealed from the public because of the coronavirus. He was identified and arrested in 2018 by using a new form of DNA tracing. вЂњHe truly is an evil monster with no soul.вЂќДeAngelo is a former police officer in California who eluded capture for four decades. вЂњHe and his knife had complete control over me for the next two hours,вЂќ Patti Cosper, the daughter of rape survivor Patricia Murphy, read from her motherвЂ™s statement. Some read statements on behalf of their loved ones who could not testify in person, while others proudly gave their names now that DeAngelo, 74, is heading to prison.

The daughter of one rape victim gave him an obscene hand gesture and cursed him during the first of four days of hearings in Sacramento County Superior Court before he is formally sentenced to life in prison on Friday under a plea agreement that allows DeAngelo to avoid ta death sentence. Victim after victim lined up on Tuesday to describe Joseph DeAngelo as a вЂњsick monster,вЂќ вЂњhorrible manвЂќ and вЂњsubhumanвЂќ who stole their innocence and changed their lives during a more than decade-long reign of rape and murder that earned him the nickname Golden State Killer.
