In "ABC7 Presents: Chasing a Killer," ABC7 took a look back at decades of terror and torment, and combed through the archives, to document the footprint of a predator.
The case of the "Golden State Killer," also known as the "East Area Rapist," started with a serial rapist and became a 40-year manhunt for a murderer that spanned 500 miles.
In Part I, decades of terror ended when investigators announced an arrest -- but how did the suspect's crimes become so infamous? From the ABC7 archives, here's a look at reporting from the time when he was known as the "East Area Rapist" and "Visalia Ransacker."
