Richard Ramirez: How a 13-Year-Old Boy Helped Catch the "Night Stalker" Pt. 2
About this episode
This episode discusses the summer of 1985 when Richard Ramirez terrorized Los Angeles and the efforts of detectives to catch him.
By the summer of 1985, Richard Ramirez was striking multiple times a week across Los Angeles: shooting, stabbing, and leaving Satanic pentagrams on the walls of ordinary bedrooms. Gun stores sold out. Locksmiths couldn't keep up. An entire city stopped sleeping with its windows open. In part two of our three-part series, Katie Ring tracks the summer of terror, the two detectives who refused to give up, and the single fingerprint from a stolen car that finally gave him a name. This episode contains descriptions of murder, sexual assault, and graphic violence. Please listen with care.
