It's an update that we hoped 24 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 1: but never truly thought we would ever have the chance 25 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: to do. This is very much a what a what 26 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 1: a time to be alive sort of show. You may 27 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: recall longtime listeners that a while back, when. 28 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 2: Was it Matt May twenty sixteen. 29 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 1: May twenty sixteen, we did an episode on what is 30 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 1: known as the original night Stalker or the Golden State Killer, 31 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 1: And in this episode we looked at the current research 32 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 1: and investigation into those at the time unsolved crimes, the 33 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:22,919 Speaker 1: various theories, the various leads that were taken up and 34 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: later rejected by law enforcement and armchair investigators on specialized 35 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 1: crime forums on Reddit, all over the internet, and including 36 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: some of the authors who made it their life's work 37 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:41,079 Speaker 1: to hunt down this killer.

Yeah, there's definitely a light at the tunnel, 52 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 1: at the end of the tunnel. 53 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 3: That's a better turner phrase. 54 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: We'll see, we'll see, we'll see. We hope we as 55 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 1: a society make it to the light. Quick background for 56 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: everybody who just sat quietly the way the three of 57 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: us did in the studio while your fellow listeners were 58 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: checking out that episode. From at least nineteen seventy four 59 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: to nineteen eighty six, California was plagued by a serial 60 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 1: break in artist, a burglar, later a rapist, and then 61 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: finally a murderer who is known by several different names 62 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: and was believed to be several different people for a time, 63 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 1: the Visalia Ransacker, the Diamond Not Killer, the Golden State Killer, 64 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 1: the East Area Rapist, and also the original Nightstalker, nowadays 65 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: more often referred to as the Golden State Killer. 66 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 2: I believe yeah, because the Golden State Killer encompasses all 67 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 2: of these different crime sprees. 68 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: And eventually, in the course of their investigation, law enforcement 69 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:34,599 Speaker 1: and independent investigators began to connect the dots and they said, 70 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 1: we believe this is all the work of a single individual. 71 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: So not copycatters, not a group operating in concert, although 72 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: we do have a bit of a rabbit hole about that, 73 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 1: but a single man, a man who might never be 74 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: apprehended until that is on April twenty fifth, twenty eighteen, 75 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 1: when authorities announced the arrest of a suspect named Joseph 76 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 1: James DeAngelo ju a seventy two year old retired police officer. 77 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: He was rested on eight counts of first degree murder 78 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: based on DNA evidence, and more than forty years since 79 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: his criminal career began, the original Knightstalker would finally maybe 80 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: be held accountable. This is the accumulation of countless of 81 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: hours of police work, contributions, and analysis by thousands and 82 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: thousands of people, several of whom are doubtlessly listening to 83 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:33,159 Speaker 1: this podcast today, and in a very real sense, a 84 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 1: lucky break. So what happens. Can we look back over 85 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:41,479 Speaker 1: some of these original crimes. I think we must, Well, 86 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: here are the facts that maybe we start with the 87 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 1: Visalia ransacker, and we do have to say we are 88 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: only at this point talking about documented crimes. As we've 89 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 1: seen in previous shows, is an unfortunate fact in the 90 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 1: US that many, many, many crimes do not get reported. 91 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 3: Do you think that, because of what's come to light 92 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,280 Speaker 3: that we'll find out about more or do you think 93 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 3: that's unlikely? 94 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: You know, ideally, ideally there wouldn't be more defined, but 95 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: realistically there are probably some. It's just a safe thing 96 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: to guess. The question then becomes if we're talking about 97 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: pre nineteen seventies stuff, right, were the authorities at the 98 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:29,679 Speaker 1: time collecting DNA? Does anything remain? You know, so it's tough, 99 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 1: but who knows. Also, if it turns out we should 100 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: say d Angelo has not been convicted yet, but if 101 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,719 Speaker 1: it turns out that he is, that he is convicted, 102 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 1: and he already from what we understand, confessed to several things, 103 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 1: he may just go on and start naming more names 104 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 1: and instances because he is, frankly at the end of 105 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: his life one way or the other. 106 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 3: Yep, maz can often happen with these kinds of legacy crimes. 107 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, unfortunately, Well, the vizailureansacker was a master burglar and 108 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,479 Speaker 1: break in guy, believed to be responsible for more than 109 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 1: one hundred crimes. Again, only the ones that we know of. 110 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 1: The first ransacking that was recorded was on Tuesday, March nineteenth, 111 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 1: nineteen seventy four, and one thing that stood out to 112 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: people was that he passed over a lot of high 113 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: value items, a lot of electronics, a lot of keepsakes 114 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: and stuff, and instead he stole about fifty bucks worth 115 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: of coins from a piggybank. That's what he took. 116 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 3: Clearly something else at work here other than desire for 117 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 3: monetary gain. 118 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: Right, right, Because there are pawnshops everywhere. He could have 119 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 1: taken something and then pawned it and made much more 120 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: than fifty dollars. 121 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 3: Is the keyword here, ransack right because it is about 122 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 3: going through people's private things. 123 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: Yes, just so, he was tearing houses apart, knocking over furniture, 124 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: cutting stuff up, going in the c it's throwing out things. 125 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: But he would only actually steal a few small items trinkets, 126 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 1: cuff links, keepsakes, keepsakes, and he would also probably the 127 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: creepiest thing you would do is he would arrange items 128 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: and what appeared to be almost a ritualistic fashion, you know, 129 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: like women's underwear. He did steal weapons. He stole six weapons. 130 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: He was prolific. He committed multiple break ins in the 131 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 1: same area on the same day, and he also set 132 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: a record for that too. 133 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, he broke into twelve different homes in a single 134 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 2: day on Saturday, November thirtieth, nineteen seventy four. 135 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: And at this point, other than the strange arrangement of items, 136 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 1: it looks like a really creepy burglar, right until that is. 137 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:51,319 Speaker 1: On September eleventh, nineteen seventy five, a man who is 138 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: strongly believed to be the ransacker, broke into the home 139 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,439 Speaker 1: of one Claude Snelling at five point thirty two Whitney Lane. 140 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: It's now South Whitney Street if you're familiar with the neighborhood. 141 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,839 Speaker 1: Claude caught someone trying to kidnap his daughter in their 142 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: car port, and this still unnamed person shot Claude twice 143 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 1: and Claude died and the assailant fled. This became the 144 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:19,439 Speaker 1: first known murder linked to what we call the original nightstalker, 145 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 1: and this murder prompted him to leave town. 146 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 3: So he's escalated already from ransacking to child snatching. 147 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: Mm hmmm, yeah, it seems set. It seems like that 148 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,199 Speaker 1: was the course. It's it's pretty safe to say that 149 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 1: if the daughter had been successfully kidnapped, she would have 150 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 1: at the very least been assaulted. 151 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,199 Speaker 3: And then the murder, though, was a byproduct of being caught. 152 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 1: Yes, the murder was more than likely a moment of 153 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 1: panic too, or perhaps in some sense meant to erase 154 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: a witness. It's probably not the primary intent. 155 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 3: But the story of this man is one of escalations. 156 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 3: I just wanted point that out. And that's interesting that 157 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:05,839 Speaker 3: this particular killing. I wonder if it's like, what kind 158 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 3: of gave him the taste or something like that, and 159 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 3: he's like, maybe I want to add this to my repertoire. 160 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: I have to wonder too, because we find often in 161 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 1: serial murders, like in our previous episodes on Uncaught serial Killers, 162 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: we do see this escalation. You know, someone starts with fires, 163 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: someone starts with mutilations, right or running by and slashing 164 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 1: someone or choking somebody, and then it builds and builds, 165 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 1: but this killer was at this point still lucid enough 166 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:46,599 Speaker 1: to realize the dangers if they chose to stay in Visalia. 167 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 1: So in mid nineteen seventy six he moves to Sacramento, 168 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 1: and that's where he progresses fully from burglary and murders, 169 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 1: perhaps unintentionally, to sexual assault. 170 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 2: So around June nineteen seventy six, our person here of 171 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,319 Speaker 2: interest moved to Sacramento, and this is when he's really 172 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 2: progressing from burglary into sexual assault. Although you know, he 173 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:18,599 Speaker 2: originally targeted these women who were alone. Usually that's what 174 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 2: his victim would look like. They would be in their homes, 175 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 2: sometimes they would be with their children, and he would 176 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 2: later prefer couples. Somehow it switched from just alone victim 177 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 2: that he could attack to perhaps, like we were saying, 178 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 2: the escalating thrill and whatever he was getting out of 179 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 2: this escalated to where he needed to have a partnered couple, 180 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 2: to where there is a male and female usually. 181 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 1: And perhaps some of that is tied into his perception 182 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 1: of the unattainable nature of someone already in a relationship. 183 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 1: Perhaps some of it is a power move on his 184 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:05,439 Speaker 1: part to someone else witnessed helpless. It's spooky and disturbing stuff. 185 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 1: His standard procedure smacked of prior training. These may have 186 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 1: been crimes of passion when he got there, but he 187 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:20,680 Speaker 1: did a lot of homework. He did extensive research. He 188 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 1: would typically break in through a window and awaken someone 189 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 1: with a flashlight and a gun so they can't clearly 190 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 1: see him as well, and then bind the victims, blindfold them, 191 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: gag them with towels from their own house, and he 192 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 1: would typically force the female victim to tie up her 193 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 1: male companion before he tied the female victim up himself. 194 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: And he operated that way for about a year June 195 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,079 Speaker 1: to seventy six to May seventy seven, and he had 196 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: a three month gap and then he returned in Sacramento 197 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 1: and other counties. He had another three month gap, and 198 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: then he was operating in other counties until nineteen seventy nine. 199 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 1: And from what the timeline shows, from June eighteenth, seventy 200 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 1: six to July fifth, nineteen seventy nine, he committed overall 201 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: fifty one crimes as the East Area rapist. As the 202 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: original Nightstalker, he committed seven known crimes with multiple homicides 203 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:29,440 Speaker 1: that Marx has moved from break inspe to murder, So 204 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: stay tuned. After a brief break for our sponsor, we 205 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,200 Speaker 1: will return and give you a grim introduction to the 206 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 1: man known as Joseph James D'Angelo junior. 207 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 2: So there are a lot of great timelines that have 208 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,200 Speaker 2: come out so far, a lot of them pretty brief, 209 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:52,320 Speaker 2: but we stumbled upon one on reddit that been found 210 00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 2: and we're just going to kind of go over this 211 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 2: and hit some of the high points and low points 212 00:13:57,760 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 2: in this man's life. 213 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, you can.

And I know it might sound maybe 216 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: a little cursory for the three of us to be 217 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: citing this sort of source, but this person has done 218 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 1: their homework extensively and we found quite a quite a thorough, 219 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 1: robust timeline here that follows from the birth of D'Angelo 220 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: to the arrest. He was born November eighth, nineteen forty five, 221 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: in Bath, New York. 222 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, and just to jump on there with what Ben 223 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 2: was saying, I linked up some of these dates just 224 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 2: as a fact checking exercise, and the Sacramento Bee has 225 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 2: much of the same exact stuff on it, so. 226 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 1: And shout out to the Sacramento Bee. They've been really 227 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: leading the charge on reporting here. 228 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 2: So he's born nineteen forty five. Then in nineteen sixty 229 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 2: four he wins the Navy. He enlists there and he 230 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 2: goes into naval training that same year in San Diego. 231 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 1: And this is where he would have, as part of 232 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 1: his training, learned a lot of knots that the average 233 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 1: person would not would either not be aware of or 234 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: would not be able to do on command. 235 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 2: Specifically, like that diamond knot. 236 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 1: Specifically, like that diamond knot, Matt, is that like a sheepshank? 237 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 3: Was that some kind of like specialized sailing knot? 238 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, And it was found at several of the 239 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 2: crime scenes. 240 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 3: Well I knew that, but I just you know, is 241 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 3: it a particularly tricky one? 242 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 2: Not tricky, just you wouldn't you wouldn't think to make 243 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 2: a knot one that way. 244 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 3: It's super interesting too, and you you know, it's such 245 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 3: a long timeline of crime and now we have a 246 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 3: person to associate with it. This timeline that we're looking 247 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 3: at has photographs of him throughout his life, which is 248 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 3: really interesting just to visually trace his you know kind 249 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 3: of progression and think about what he was doing at 250 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 3: the time those photos were taken. So he did, in 251 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 3: fact serve in the Vietnam War. And then in August 252 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 3: of nineteen sixty eight, he goes to Sierra College in Rockland, California, 253 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 3: and fascinatingly got an associate degree in police science that 254 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 3: could come in handy. 255 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, he also attends later the year. After he graduates 256 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 1: with an associate degree in police science, he goes to 257 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 1: CSU and Sacramento, where he spends a year earning a 258 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 1: bachelor's in criminal justice, and the same year he gets 259 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 1: out of there, in nineteen seventy two, he spends the 260 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 1: next approximate year, sometime during nineteen seventy two and nineteen 261 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 1: seventy three, he completes an internship in the Roseville Patrol. 262 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 1: This is interesting because at the time, if we look 263 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 1: at the context, many police officers and law enforcement professionals 264 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 1: did not have college education or higher education to this degree, 265 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:14,159 Speaker 1: not to mention an internship. So it's somewhat strange that 266 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: we'll see this as his career continues. It's somewhat strange 267 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 1: that he goes to smaller police forces. You know, he 268 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 1: could have maybe ritten a ticket to Los Angeles or Chicago, 269 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 1: but for some reason, he stayed in these smaller areas. 270 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:36,400 Speaker 1: The same year wherein we believe he completes his internship, 271 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 1: he joins the Exeter Police Department on their burglary task 272 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 1: force in May of nineteen seventy three. May of nineteen 273 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: seventy three is also when experts believe the Visilia Ransacker 274 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 1: crimes began. 275 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,199 Speaker 2: When's that crazy? Yeah, the burglary crimes. Hey, I'm on 276 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:55,919 Speaker 2: a burglary task force? 277 00:17:56,160 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 1: In such a trope in fiction, right, like the what 278 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:04,920 Speaker 1: was that movie about the crime scene photographer Nightcrawlers? Who 279 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: starts perpetrating crimes? Does he not? Really? 280 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 2: Kind of? Yes, he does. He that's true, he does. 281 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 3: That's very true. At first it starts off that he's 282 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 3: he's looking for the big scoops, and then in order 283 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 3: to get them, he kind of starts behaving in a 284 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 3: monstrous way. He escalates, or like Dexter for example, not 285 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 3: sure it's like a good show exactly, but you know 286 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 3: blood expert who is also a serial kill. 287 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,880 Speaker 1: Or would Jude Law from Road to Perdition be an example? 288 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:39,680 Speaker 2: I oh wow, I don't remember. 289 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:40,360 Speaker 3: It's been a minute. 290 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:40,679 Speaker 2: What was he? 291 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:41,400 Speaker 3: What's his deal? 292 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: I feel like we may be on the verge of 293 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 1: a spoiler alert. 294 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 2: It's okay. 295 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 3: If we say it okay, then it's okay. 296 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 1: All right. 297 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 2: Just don't don't get Tom Hanks angry at us for 298 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 2: spoiling his movies. 299 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 3: Road to Perdition spoiler coming in three two one. 300 00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:01,359 Speaker 1: Jude Law's character is a photographer who is also killing 301 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:07,120 Speaker 1: people to get the best photographs of crime scenes. Yep, wow, yeah, 302 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: but this and it's a solid film. 303 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 3: If you haven't seen, Oh, it's coming back to me. 304 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 3: I haven't seen it since it was in the theaters, 305 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 3: but now I'm having flashes of it and it was 306 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:17,160 Speaker 3: quite good. 307 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,199 Speaker 2: One thing to point out here, in nineteen seventy Joseph 308 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 2: was engaged and then he got married in nineteen seventy 309 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 2: three as well. If we're imagining, so he's got his 310 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 2: professional life, then he's also got his personal life that's 311 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 2: going on. So he's engaged, and then three years later 312 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 2: he gets married in the same year that the Facilia ransacker. 313 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 1: Is right, but he doesn't marry the woman who was 314 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:44,880 Speaker 1: originally engaged to. No, he marries someone different. Correct, And 315 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 1: in seventy five, As we said, Claude Snelling is murdered 316 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 1: during the attempted kidnapping. There's an attempted murder of an 317 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 1: officer McGowan in December of the same year when the 318 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 1: police got close to handing the ransacker. And then this 319 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:07,920 Speaker 1: is when not only does the ransacker disappear from Visalia, 320 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 1: but someone in Sacramento begins committing the East Area rapist crimes. 321 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 1: For DiAngelo's part, he has relocated to the Auburn Police Department. 322 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:24,639 Speaker 1: So again these relocations, at least timing wise, begin to 323 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 1: match up. 324 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 2: And then in nineteen seventy nine, he gets caught and 325 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 2: he's shop but not for any of these major crimes. 326 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 2: He gets caught shoplifting. It's a hammer and what was 327 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 2: the other thing? 328 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 1: Oh it was not tape, but yeah, he got shop, 329 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 1: got caught shoplifting small items. 330 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, specifically, I know a hammer was one of the 331 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:46,160 Speaker 2: major things. 332 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 3: Was is the kind of items that you maybe wouldn't 333 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 3: want a record of you having purchased. 334 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 2: I don't know, it's it definitely seemed a bit strange, 335 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 2: specifically with that hammer. But the police department finds out 336 00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:01,680 Speaker 2: because he is actually found guilty of shoplifting, and then 337 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 2: he gets fired from the Auburn Police Department in August 338 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 2: of seventy nine. 339 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,199 Speaker 1: And many people will tell you that there was a 340 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 1: slight pausing crime at that time. That's not entirely true, 341 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 1: because in October of seventy nine, we know that there 342 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 1: was an attack that went wrong on the ear side 343 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 1: on what would be classified as the original Nightstalker crimes, 344 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 1: and tried to break in and assault and murder a couple, 345 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 1: but he botched it. Then, as the original Nightstalker, there 346 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 1: is the murder of Robert Offerman and Deborah Manning in 347 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 1: December of nineteen seventy nine. The next month there's a pause. 348 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 1: March of nineteen eighty Lyman and Charlene Smith are murdered. 349 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:53,719 Speaker 1: In August, Keith and Patrice Harrington are murdered. During this time, 350 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 1: DiAngelo buys a home in a neighborhood called Citrus Heights. 351 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: February nineteen eighty one, a woman named Manuela Wittun is. 352 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 2: Murdered, and then to jump back into his personal life, 353 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 2: his first child is born in September nineteen eighty one, 354 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,440 Speaker 2: another huge change in his life. And then you see 355 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 2: that there's a bit of a break, A big gap 356 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 2: here that happens after September nineteen eighty one. 357 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 1: Right, a five year gap in May of so the 358 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:29,919 Speaker 1: murder before the child was Sherry Domingo and Greg Sanchez 359 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,680 Speaker 1: in July nineteen eighty one. Matt, as you said, September 360 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty one, DiAngelo as his first child and. 361 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 3: In Los Angeles, but he wasn't living there, was he? 362 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 1: His child was born in Sacramento. And then Matt, as 363 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 1: you said, radio silence for five years, at least as 364 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 1: far as we know. In May nineteen eighty six, another 365 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: murder is associated with the original Knightstalker. Thats Janelle Cruz. 366 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 3: And then that same year in November, he has his 367 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 3: second child in Los Angeles, but did he live there 368 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:03,399 Speaker 3: for an extending the amount of time It seemed like 369 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 3: he was sticking to the smaller areas well. 370 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 1: We know that the murders, at least the documented ones, 371 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: appear to have stopped at that time. Interesting and as 372 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,640 Speaker 1: we look, he continues on for a while to have 373 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:22,880 Speaker 1: a relatively normal life, despite what some of us might 374 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:27,920 Speaker 1: assume about killers, and despite how we would assume having 375 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 1: a criminal record for shoplifting would screw up your job prospects. 376 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 1: He seems to have continued. 377 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 3: He stayed working at the same place until retirement, the 378 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:39,119 Speaker 3: save mart, which was I guess he was like a 379 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 3: loader or something in a distribution center. 380 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 2: Or he definitely worked at the distribution center, and I'm 381 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,359 Speaker 2: assuming after working that many years, he probably moved up 382 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 2: the ladder, but we don't have that information. 383 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, from August nineteen eighty nine, he was working at 384 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:57,359 Speaker 1: that distribution center Noel mentioned in Rooseville, California, and he 385 00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: worked there until what twenty seventeen until last year. 386 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:02,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's retirement. 387 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:06,199 Speaker 1: Age, so he was settled in and everything seemed to 388 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 1: indicate that this guy would retire and relative obscurity. He 389 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:17,679 Speaker 1: was living with one of his daughters at the time 390 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 1: and her husband, So. 391 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 3: That would put him today at in the neighborhood of 392 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 3: seventy two years of age. 393 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: And that would put the assuming there's a big assumption 394 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 1: that's probably incorrect, Assuming that all the crimes that occurred 395 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: are the crimes we know about, then that would put 396 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 1: him at a murder rate of twelve to thirteen people, 397 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:46,479 Speaker 1: forty five to fifty sexual assaults more easily more than 398 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty homes broken into. 399 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's, of course, if he actually did all 400 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 2: of these crimes. 401 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,359 Speaker 1: And that's a very good point to make. If, of 402 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 1: course he actually did all of these crimes. 403 00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 2: He's being charged for several murders right now as we're 404 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 2: recording this, but it's not all of them. 405 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 3: Well what's that based on? Guys? What do we actually know? 406 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,439 Speaker 1: Well, answer what might be the most important question in 407 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 1: today's episode. After a word from our sponsors, here's where 408 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:24,919 Speaker 1: it gets crazy. This man d' angelo was associated with 409 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: these crimes, not through a bunch of people digging through 410 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 1: microfiche or hunting down old leads alone. No, this man 411 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:44,200 Speaker 1: was apprehended due to a lead they derived from DNA, 412 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 1: a DNA database. So one of the first questions is 413 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 1: how did they find this DNA Because clearly, like in 414 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: the nineteen seventies, for instance, they wouldn't have had the 415 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:59,719 Speaker 1: sophistication in terms of technology to investigate this. You can 416 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 1: find a loose leaf notebook or something, but you wouldn't 417 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 1: automatically be able to pull that info off of it. 418 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 3: Oh totally. And when I first saw this case the story, 419 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 3: I assumed that they had a sample of his DNA 420 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 3: that ended up in one of these databases. But that's 421 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 3: not quite how it went down, is it. 422 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: No, not quite. It turns out that they took crime 423 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:22,119 Speaker 1: scene DNA which they had had from the time of 424 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 1: the crimes, and ran it through various databases where all 425 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 1: of a sudden, ding ding ding, it showed a match 426 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 1: to what would turn out to be one on DiAngelo's 427 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 1: distant relatives, someone who was who had their DNA in 428 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:43,360 Speaker 1: a public database. So let's look at that arrest, though 429 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 1: it isn't until March of this year, as we record 430 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 1: this March twenty eighteen, that he has identified as a 431 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:56,679 Speaker 1: suspect in these in these decade old crimes via a 432 00:26:56,720 --> 00:27:00,680 Speaker 1: public database. And what's strange about it happened in twenty 433 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:02,919 Speaker 1: eighteen for a lot of people, is the idea that 434 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 1: WHOA and authorities would hold on to this information for 435 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 1: decades and not do anything. In nineteen eighty six, DNA 436 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 1: was just emerging as a criminal investigative tool, and according 437 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 1: to the experts, D'Angelo, as a former police officer, would 438 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:29,160 Speaker 1: have probably according to them, have known that this thing 439 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:32,160 Speaker 1: was on the way, or there was a possibility at least, 440 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:37,439 Speaker 1: So when they started looking for this. A lot of 441 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 1: the stuff we read about says that they found a 442 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 1: match that was a distant relative. But what does that mean. 443 00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,440 Speaker 2: Oh well, it means that they took what they did 444 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 2: have as far as DNA evidence from this killer and 445 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 2: they threw it into one of these databases called GEDMatch 446 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 2: dot com, and they found a fourth cousin of D'Angelo. 447 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 2: Now they have no idea at this point who D'Angelo is. 448 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 2: They just know that this DNA matches this person at 449 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:05,880 Speaker 2: least in some way, and this person had used this 450 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 2: ged match program already and the service. And then they 451 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,679 Speaker 2: start looking through this person's family tree, this fourth cousin, 452 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:18,440 Speaker 2: and then they start trying to match up people's backgrounds 453 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,479 Speaker 2: from that family tree, and does anybody match up? Do 454 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 2: they live in Vasiliador around this time? Do they live 455 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 2: in Sacramento around this time? And they start picking out 456 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 2: a few people to look at, and they eventually come 457 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 2: upon mister DiAngelo. And it's a really strange process. How 458 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 2: that just happened to work. 459 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 3: Well, remember, on the Here's where it gets a crazy episode, 460 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 3: we talked about this whole thing, and there was a 461 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 3: story about this very same process that led them to 462 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 3: like a fault positive. That can happen too, because they 463 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 3: they got a hit, but the guy didn't match the 464 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 3: criteria for the crime they were trying to to solve. 465 00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 3: So they looked at like his son or something like that, 466 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 3: and it atched a little more and so they went 467 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 3: with that and then ended up not being true. Yeah. 468 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 2: Well, in this case, the investigation is fascinating because they 469 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 2: got this match with the fourth cousin. Then they actually 470 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 2: start looking at this guy and they start staking out 471 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 2: his house. 472 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 1: For like six or seven days, yeah. 473 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 2: Exactly, and they're looking at his trash. I mean, they 474 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 2: don't they don't state specifically how they got the DNA samples, 475 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,720 Speaker 2: but they do say it was probably from a container 476 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 2: that he had drunken. He had taken a drink out 477 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 2: of right, and they would watch him come in and 478 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 2: out of his house, and they, you know, then they 479 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 2: took that DNA sample and they tested it with the 480 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 2: other DNA that they had from the previous case, and 481 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 2: they went, oh, boy, guess what. Somehow we got the guy. 482 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 2: It's him. 483 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, and the match was not something that was contested. 484 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 1: We can't be more clear about this. Yeah, it wasn't. 485 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 1: It wasn't like, oh, oh, this is a pretty good indicator. 486 00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 1: Let's see. No, this this, this was something they've been 487 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 1: under investigation in a while for some time. A criminologist 488 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 1: in Contra Costa County way back in two thousand and 489 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 1: one had linked two sets of cases to the same 490 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: individual thanks to DNA evidence. They just didn't know who 491 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 1: it was. 492 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,479 Speaker 2: And that was the East Area rapist and the original 493 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 2: night stalker cases. 494 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, and to the point that you made know when 495 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 1: they get the DNA, it led them to a number 496 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 1: of people, right, and they had to separate timeline, so 497 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 1: they had to spend this time surveilling this guy and 498 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:42,960 Speaker 1: going through his trash most likely, although they don't say 499 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,240 Speaker 1: it that way because I don't think they want that 500 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: image of law enforcement to be you know, they want 501 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 1: to be presented as people digging through your trash. 502 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 2: No, but they will, Yeah, but they will have to. 503 00:30:56,400 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 1: Well, and they you know, they're there is a beyond 504 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:05,880 Speaker 1: ninety eight percent likelihood, beyond ninety nine percent likelihood that 505 00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 1: they have the right guy. This is the US, so 506 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 1: technically he's innocent until proven guilty. 507 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:15,320 Speaker 3: Digging through trash is just good police work, my guys. 508 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 1: I would agree. I would agree, and this is where 509 00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: the story stands. As the story emerges, we're going to 510 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 1: hear new updates. Well, we can go ahead and call it. 511 00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 1: We're inevitably gonna hear I think the conviction of this criminal. 512 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 1: On a side note, the neighbors said the same things 513 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 1: that you would hear about serial killers in works of fiction. 514 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 1: They said he was kind of a recluse. We didn't 515 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: think he was a killer or a monster. They did 516 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 1: say he was prone to violent public outbursts. Did you 517 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 1: catch that? 518 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 2: But somehow you've maintained it and kept it under control 519 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 2: for years and years and years after his children were born, 520 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:00,960 Speaker 2: except for one case right after first daughter. 521 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 1: Again that is and less more stuff emerges, like we 522 00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 1: have pointed out earlier, Unless it comes out that he 523 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 1: is implicated in other stuff, I would be at this point, 524 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 1: I'd be surprised because if there were DNA leavings from 525 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:19,920 Speaker 1: other crimes, they would have also pinged on those databases, right, yeah, 526 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 1: because those databases work together pretty well. And this leads 527 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 1: into the larger implication, which is a big question for 528 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 1: us today. What does this mean for not just the 529 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 1: like the DNA of criminals and these human monsters like 530 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 1: serial killers. But what does this mean for you right now? 531 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 1: Listening your DNA. We talked a little bit about this 532 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:51,520 Speaker 1: with an excellent post in our community page. Like you mentioned, Noel, 533 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 1: here's where it gets crazy. And sometimes the three of 534 00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,360 Speaker 1: us are usually on the same page about a lot 535 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,360 Speaker 1: of things. I mean, and get along famously, but we 536 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 1: might have some differing opinions about DNA testing, like a 537 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 1: number of people, and this is just personally, I've held 538 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 1: off on some DNA testing due to privacy concerns. 539 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a good call, and that seems to be 540 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 3: a sentiment shared by many. 541 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:22,600 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah. And Noel, you had earlier mentioned that 542 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 1: you had experience with DNA testing from our earlier show 543 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 1: Stuff of Life. 544 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,160 Speaker 3: I did, and I kind of just threw myself into 545 00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,560 Speaker 3: it like a big dummy, thinking this will be cute 546 00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:35,120 Speaker 3: and it's free, so why not. Kind of regretting it 547 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 3: a little bit after digging into some of this stuff 548 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 3: a little bit more. Not that I have anything to 549 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 3: hide or that I'm worried about, you know, the government 550 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 3: making a clone army based on my pristine DNA. 551 00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 2: I would do it if I could. 552 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:48,120 Speaker 3: Oh buddy, that's really sweet. 553 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 2: But here's the deal, Noel. Yeah, what we found with 554 00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:53,480 Speaker 2: this case is that it doesn't even matter if you 555 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 2: have or have not submitted your DNA. 556 00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:58,719 Speaker 3: Oh exactly. That's that's why I said earlier. When I 557 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 3: first read the details this, I'm like, oh, I guess 558 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:04,000 Speaker 3: he did one of those and then they got access 559 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 3: to it somehow. No, it was somewhere way down the line. 560 00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 3: You can't control. We haven't even met our fifth cousins. 561 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:12,319 Speaker 3: Ben and I did an episode about lineage in our 562 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 3: other show, Ridiculous History, and the idea of knowing personally 563 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 3: a fifth cousin was sort of. 564 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 2: Absurd, well at least for us, for our Yeah. 565 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,920 Speaker 3: That's what I meant between between us, Ben, I think 566 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,680 Speaker 3: you said you were aware of some fifth cousins, but 567 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,239 Speaker 3: you certainly aren't, you know, taking in a movie of 568 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:30,800 Speaker 3: a weekend. 569 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I come from a strange place, but but yeah 570 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 1: it Matt. You make an excellent point that in other cultures, 571 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:40,799 Speaker 1: in place around the world, it's quite common to know 572 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 1: your extended family or even live with them, or you know, 573 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 1: maybe you're all in the same town or the same region. 574 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 1: Not a lot of people here in the US are 575 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:53,280 Speaker 1: that close, and there are these implications that you mentioned. 576 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 1: It's not somebody. It's not always going to be a 577 00:34:56,600 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 1: case of someone signing up directly. We know that military. 578 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:05,399 Speaker 1: As we mentioned earlier, we'll take DNA samples. Now, if 579 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:09,960 Speaker 1: you are involved in law enforcement on the wrong side, 580 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:13,279 Speaker 1: if you get caught, then your DNA will go into 581 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:17,880 Speaker 1: a system. But the implications are that even if you 582 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,719 Speaker 1: say it like let's say Matt may is you as 583 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 1: an example, No, okay, let's say that Paul doesn't it 584 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 1: has never never been to jail, because he's a paragon 585 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:36,360 Speaker 1: of upstanding, young gentlemanness. And let's say he was also 586 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:38,879 Speaker 1: never in the military or something like that. And let's 587 00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:42,239 Speaker 1: say he also additionally never signed up for something like 588 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:44,920 Speaker 1: twenty three ae meters or ancestry dot com or anything 589 00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:51,279 Speaker 1: like that. If, however, one of Paul's relatives signs up 590 00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:55,239 Speaker 1: for this thing, or if one of his relatives joins 591 00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: the right kind of organization, or if God forbid, they 592 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:01,960 Speaker 1: get in trouble with the law, then they will end 593 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:06,160 Speaker 1: up in the system, which means, by extension, he has 594 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,520 Speaker 1: ended up in a system, whether or not he agreed 595 00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:09,280 Speaker 1: to be there. 596 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 2: And in this case would be probably metadata on Paul, 597 00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:16,880 Speaker 2: it wouldn't actually have his DNA or anything, right, I mean, 598 00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 2: that's how this whole thing would work. It's just you're 599 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:24,439 Speaker 2: in the system now because you are related in some way, right. 600 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:28,479 Speaker 1: Yeah. And we talked a little bit about how this 601 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:32,799 Speaker 1: data is supposed to be made anonymous. I can't pronounce it. 602 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:33,520 Speaker 1: Can you help me out? 603 00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:34,480 Speaker 3: Anonymized? 604 00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:40,640 Speaker 1: There we go, hold on one. Yes, anonymity, anonymity, my 605 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 1: enemy's anonymity and enmity. And enmity means many things to 606 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:49,319 Speaker 1: me if we're just going to finish the poem. But 607 00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:55,719 Speaker 1: the strange thing here is that we you know, we 608 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 1: can't help but think of the comparison to big data 609 00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 1: and Facebook or the so called frictionless sharing. 610 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 3: Right. 611 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 1: We have friends who have never been on Facebook and 612 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:08,759 Speaker 1: never want to be for various reasons of their own, 613 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:12,440 Speaker 1: but because they know us, or because if you have 614 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,800 Speaker 1: friends like this, they know you. Facebook has a shadow 615 00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 1: profile on them. And again, for anyone who heard our 616 00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 1: Cambridge analytic episode, Facebook doesn't like us to call them 617 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:27,760 Speaker 1: shadow profiles. It sounds spooky, yeah, but literally everybody else 618 00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 1: except for Facebook calls them shadow profile. 619 00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:32,759 Speaker 3: I don't know what I think, what their internal nomenclature 620 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:33,239 Speaker 3: is for it. 621 00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:36,440 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe they call them like head start profiles, 622 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:44,879 Speaker 1: fun pages, fun pages, party profiles. So right now, there's 623 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 1: no escaping that this stuff has made life massively better 624 00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:53,920 Speaker 1: or at the very least provided some sense of closure 625 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:59,280 Speaker 1: for people who are survivors of victims of these horrific atrocities. 626 00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:03,759 Speaker 1: But that doesn't mean that we should forget the implications. 627 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:05,560 Speaker 1: At least that's what a lot of critics are saying 628 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:09,560 Speaker 1: about this stuff. Once you give that data way, you 629 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:16,120 Speaker 1: yourself have little to know legal protection regarding what happens 630 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 1: to that information, and you have no control over where 631 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:25,440 Speaker 1: it ultimately ends up. We found an interesting take on 632 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 1: this from the Parallax, which does a pretty solid job 633 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:34,920 Speaker 1: of painting the backgrounds here of the current industry and 634 00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:36,120 Speaker 1: where it seems set to go. 635 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:40,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, there are a lot of possible positives, yes, that 636 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:43,880 Speaker 2: are here in this industry. So it says, quote, the 637 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:47,320 Speaker 2: consumer DNA market is poised to become the ten billion 638 00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:50,879 Speaker 2: dollar business by twenty twenty two. Dozens of companies sell 639 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:54,200 Speaker 2: home DNA kits, Some like ancestry dot Com and family 640 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:57,239 Speaker 2: Tree DNA allow you to divine your ethnic background and 641 00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:01,279 Speaker 2: connect you with different distant relatives. Others like twenty three 642 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 2: and Me can also identify genes linked to ten diseases, 643 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:07,719 Speaker 2: including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Celiacs. 644 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:09,400 Speaker 3: Mine didn't do any of that stuff. 645 00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:12,640 Speaker 2: See twenty three and me is pretty cool in that regard, 646 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:16,479 Speaker 2: and I mean it's pretty great. You can see ads 647 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:19,919 Speaker 2: for these services. They talk about how millions of people 648 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 2: are already using them. Why don't you join in and 649 00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:24,400 Speaker 2: let's find out? Say, well, I mean yeah, because they 650 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 2: gotta get that much. But what they don't tell you 651 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:30,319 Speaker 2: is that unlocking your genetic code could also get you 652 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:34,279 Speaker 2: into trouble, legal trouble. Specifically, you can also prevent you 653 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:36,799 Speaker 2: from getting life insurance if you find something in your 654 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:39,920 Speaker 2: DNA that you didn't know was there before, and now 655 00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:41,279 Speaker 2: your insurance company is all like. 656 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 3: Uh yeah, yeah, man. It's at least if you like 657 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:47,320 Speaker 3: lie on your insurance papers and say you don't smoke, 658 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:50,680 Speaker 3: and then they like ransack your Facebook page and find 659 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,520 Speaker 3: a picture of you smoking, Okay, that's all in good fun. 660 00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:57,200 Speaker 3: You know, they they gave good chase whatever this is like, 661 00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 3: you know. 662 00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:00,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is it. Yeah, Well, here's the worst one 663 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,640 Speaker 2: for you. What if you, let's say, do twenty three 664 00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:06,520 Speaker 2: and me, then you find out, Oh wait, that's not 665 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:11,359 Speaker 2: my dad. That would be. 666 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:13,319 Speaker 3: Pretty messed up, right, are you my dad? Matt. 667 00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:16,439 Speaker 2: I'm just saying, oh, well, you'll find out one day soon. 668 00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:22,080 Speaker 2: Uh so, Uh nope, daddy. No, But like, this is 669 00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 2: a genuine thing that I'm assuming has happened. I haven't 670 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:28,000 Speaker 2: seen it reported, but surely like. 671 00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,839 Speaker 3: You, you you understand the risk of finding out something 672 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 3: like maybe you don't though. Maybe that's the thing they 673 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:37,359 Speaker 3: think that just pops up as a notification, like your dad. 674 00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 1: Maybe they send like a very lung killer guy to 675 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:43,480 Speaker 1: come in and break the news to you while he 676 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 1: takes your fishing or something. 677 00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 3: That's one of these things too. If we start like 678 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:47,840 Speaker 3: really like we're going down a rabbit hole here, but 679 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:51,279 Speaker 3: getting into the territory of targeted ads, what if you 680 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:54,680 Speaker 3: start getting ads targeted at you because of your DNA information? 681 00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, that's a great question. I mean, it is 682 00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:04,000 Speaker 1: completely it used to be possible. We're about two years 683 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:07,320 Speaker 1: from it being plausible, and it's a spooky escalation. 684 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:10,400 Speaker 3: Like in the same way that person got an ad 685 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 3: for a baby product right before knowing no the father 686 00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 3: I think. 687 00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:20,560 Speaker 1: The household received an ad for in the mail for 688 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,600 Speaker 1: expectant mothers, and that's how they found out that their 689 00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:27,320 Speaker 1: daughter was pregnant. Target literally knew. 690 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,240 Speaker 3: Before they do it's ray. They called Target. 691 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:33,319 Speaker 1: Boy no kid man. And now whenever I don't know 692 00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:35,320 Speaker 1: about you, I don't want to ruin this for anybody 693 00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:38,440 Speaker 1: who still receives those circulars and those you know, those 694 00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:46,680 Speaker 1: slightly better quality than straight up newspaper coupon books. Yeah, 695 00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 1: when I receive those. Now Ever, since we did that 696 00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 1: episode and looked into that stuff, I always get a 697 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:55,200 Speaker 1: little freaked out. And I always try to treat it 698 00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:58,160 Speaker 1: like a magic eight ball or some tea leaves for 699 00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:04,799 Speaker 1: the believers in prognostication. You know, I always wonder, like, 700 00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:08,719 Speaker 1: what what do they know about me that made them 701 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:09,840 Speaker 1: think I need a deck? 702 00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:11,560 Speaker 3: At this point, I just kind of wish they would 703 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:15,480 Speaker 3: deliver my mail directly into the trash. Now saved me 704 00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:16,400 Speaker 3: as a trip. 705 00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:18,080 Speaker 1: I use it for art projects. 706 00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:22,280 Speaker 3: It's cool, you're a very enterprising and earth friendly individual. 707 00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:24,160 Speaker 1: Cheap is another way to put it in. 708 00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:25,000 Speaker 3: Yep, that's yep. 709 00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:29,200 Speaker 1: But her thrifty, brave Cleyon Reverend, if you get that right, 710 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 1: in there's a real world example of this stuff happening, 711 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:39,160 Speaker 1: at least the life insurance stuff happening. In twenty sixteen, 712 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 1: a writer named Christina Farr, writing for a fast company, 713 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 1: gave us the story of someone identified as Jennifer Marie, 714 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:53,120 Speaker 1: not the real name to protect their privacy, although the 715 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:57,400 Speaker 1: horse may have already left the barn there at the time. 716 00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:01,320 Speaker 1: She was thirty six, gamefully employed, and had no current 717 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:07,960 Speaker 1: medical issues. But on September fifteenth of twenty fifteen, her 718 00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:11,759 Speaker 1: application for life insurance was denied. And here's the quote 719 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:16,080 Speaker 1: they used. Unfortunately, after carefully reviewing your application, we regret 720 00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:18,240 Speaker 1: that we are unable to provide you with the coverage 721 00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:22,440 Speaker 1: because of your positive BRCA one gene. The letter reads. 722 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:25,680 Speaker 1: In the US for background far Rights, about one in 723 00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:29,000 Speaker 1: four hundred women have a BRCA one or two gene 724 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:31,920 Speaker 1: and it's associated with an increased risk of breast or 725 00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:33,000 Speaker 1: ovarian cancer. 726 00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:37,160 Speaker 2: Wow. So she was denied that because she had done 727 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:38,680 Speaker 2: one of these tests. 728 00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:42,760 Speaker 1: Because the insurance company had access to that genetic information. 729 00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 1: So now does that qualify as a as a pre 730 00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:51,840 Speaker 1: existing condition? Does you know? Is it something where we 731 00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:56,520 Speaker 1: would have to say from the life insurance company. And 732 00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 1: you know, of course the US this privatized insurance. From 733 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:02,799 Speaker 1: the life insurance company's perspective, is it a matter of 734 00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:08,720 Speaker 1: in the long run, protecting the rest of their customers. 735 00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:12,080 Speaker 2: So they don't go under you mean, right? 736 00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:15,400 Speaker 1: Is that part of it? How do they how do 737 00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:17,319 Speaker 1: they address that? How do they process that? 738 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:21,680 Speaker 2: Stop being private companies selling health insurance? That's how that's 739 00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:22,399 Speaker 2: how they fix that. 740 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:25,279 Speaker 1: A lot of people would make that argument, but there 741 00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:29,799 Speaker 1: is there is hope in form of the Genetic Non 742 00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:33,360 Speaker 1: Discrimination Act, which we mentioned I think previously as well, 743 00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:36,560 Speaker 1: and also known as GINA. It is meant to prohibit 744 00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:42,000 Speaker 1: employers and health insurance from using your genetic info against you. However, 745 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:45,719 Speaker 1: it is full of loopholes, and Congress is going to 746 00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:48,520 Speaker 1: swiss cheeze it a little bit more. And this goes 747 00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:52,560 Speaker 1: back to that question we asked before, and we received 748 00:44:52,600 --> 00:45:00,279 Speaker 1: a fantastic comment regarding the the idea of how to 749 00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:07,560 Speaker 1: prioritize technological progress and potential gains. Right, if we're risking 750 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:13,880 Speaker 1: ruining the lives and the livelihoods of a few people, 751 00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:18,960 Speaker 1: certainly maybe more than we think, is that worth the 752 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:23,759 Speaker 1: potential of saving maybe hundreds of thousands or even millions 753 00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:27,920 Speaker 1: of lives down the line. I mean, this becomes a 754 00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:32,400 Speaker 1: very deep dilemma very quickly. I don't know, what do 755 00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:34,040 Speaker 1: you guys think. We talked about it a little bit 756 00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:34,840 Speaker 1: about this earlier. 757 00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:37,520 Speaker 2: I definitely see the side and mentioned this in the 758 00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 2: other episode that we were just recorded. Just I do 759 00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:42,279 Speaker 2: see this as being a great thing potentially in the 760 00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:46,320 Speaker 2: long run, specifically fixing a lot of these genetic disorders, 761 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:49,800 Speaker 2: just by having enough data, because that's one of the 762 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:52,839 Speaker 2: biggest problems is not being able to track DNA over 763 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:57,240 Speaker 2: time and looking at how these specific sequences actually change 764 00:45:57,480 --> 00:46:00,319 Speaker 2: a human beings development. I think it could be huge, 765 00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:02,640 Speaker 2: and it could be exactly what we need. 766 00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:04,920 Speaker 3: But is it for everybody? Though? Like it is it 767 00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:07,040 Speaker 3: going to mean that the wealthy are going to be 768 00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:11,080 Speaker 3: prioritized and be able to, you know, extend their lives 769 00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:13,920 Speaker 3: and the lives of their offspring by having access to 770 00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:15,240 Speaker 3: this because of their wealth. 771 00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:20,920 Speaker 2: Certainly, Yes, that's what will happen until there's some big change. 772 00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:25,839 Speaker 2: And here's the here's the other thing. What happens when 773 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 2: let's just say, the wrong group of people ends up 774 00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:32,399 Speaker 2: getting in power somehow, and there are all of these 775 00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:36,960 Speaker 2: databases that can be found and someone in power wants to, 776 00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:41,360 Speaker 2: let's say, get rid of certain types of DNA in 777 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:46,080 Speaker 2: the culture, right, mass eugenics or something. You've got literally 778 00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:48,000 Speaker 2: all of the data that you would ever need for that, 779 00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:51,279 Speaker 2: if you know, it's compulsory, and everyone eventually one day 780 00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:54,239 Speaker 2: signs up for something like this because you kind of 781 00:46:54,239 --> 00:46:54,680 Speaker 2: have to. 782 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:58,040 Speaker 1: And instead of present your papers the way it was 783 00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:01,960 Speaker 1: in various world wars, it's spit into this tube and 784 00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 1: stand here. 785 00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:04,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, wait, I. 786 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:07,080 Speaker 1: Mean that's it. That's a terrifying thing. We'd all like 787 00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:11,960 Speaker 1: to think it's it's far it's far off right, or 788 00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:15,319 Speaker 1: that it's not actually going to happen sort of a 789 00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:20,400 Speaker 1: nimby process and not in my backyard. But at this point, 790 00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:23,520 Speaker 1: you know, again, if you haven't written into us about this, 791 00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:25,640 Speaker 1: we we we want to hear from you. Where do 792 00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:28,440 Speaker 1: you fall on this side of the line, And we 793 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:32,720 Speaker 1: want to end today's episode with, first off, a clear 794 00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:37,759 Speaker 1: admission again, Joseph James DeAngelo has not been convicted. He 795 00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:42,439 Speaker 1: is he is talking from what we understand, and he 796 00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:46,680 Speaker 1: is confessing, but that doesn't he hasn't had the core 797 00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:50,360 Speaker 1: time yet. Although it's it's pretty much a clear cuta. 798 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:54,600 Speaker 1: Do we know anything about his mental state? Apparently, aside 799 00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:59,839 Speaker 1: from the violent outburst, he does appear lucid interesting, which 800 00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:04,760 Speaker 1: is which is interesting. And you know right now, given 801 00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:07,680 Speaker 1: the time that it's elapsed, if there are other crimes 802 00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:11,000 Speaker 1: or murders, he is literally the best chance of finding them. 803 00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:13,960 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, And every day we're finding out new things. 804 00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:16,759 Speaker 2: I would follow the Sacramento Bee online if you can, 805 00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:18,320 Speaker 2: you have the time to do it, and you're interested 806 00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:20,279 Speaker 2: in this case. There are all kinds of new little 807 00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:22,799 Speaker 2: stories about maybe he had an accomplice during some of 808 00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:26,000 Speaker 2: these crimes, maybe it was a breakup that sent him 809 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:30,080 Speaker 2: on that first raping spring, unsuccessful engagement. Yeah, I mean 810 00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:32,879 Speaker 2: there's all there was all kinds of interesting things coming out, 811 00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:35,160 Speaker 2: and I just have to say, like we said before, 812 00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:37,520 Speaker 2: the Sacramento Bee is the place that I'm finding them 813 00:48:37,920 --> 00:48:38,600 Speaker 2: the soonest. 814 00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:44,239 Speaker 1: And we have one other thing here, not a conclusion. 815 00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:47,319 Speaker 1: There's not really a conclusion to this story yet and 816 00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:51,040 Speaker 1: not a shout out corner, though we will be returning 817 00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:54,040 Speaker 1: that segment soon. We have something that when we were 818 00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:57,319 Speaker 1: talking about this off air, we were all texting each 819 00:48:57,360 --> 00:49:00,640 Speaker 1: other as we were working on this, and Noel, you 820 00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:05,680 Speaker 1: pointed out to us another recent development involving DNA and killers. 821 00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:09,200 Speaker 3: And the Sacramento b They I believe, were first on 822 00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:13,440 Speaker 3: the scene to report that police in the Laho have 823 00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:20,200 Speaker 3: obtained DNA supposedly linked to the Zodiac killer and that 824 00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:22,600 Speaker 3: it's being processed in a lab and we could see 825 00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:26,440 Speaker 3: results any day now. This was on May the second, And. 826 00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:27,960 Speaker 2: They're probably going to do a lot of the same 827 00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:31,280 Speaker 2: things here, or at least potentially doing the same things, 828 00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:35,319 Speaker 2: finding that match, linking that up, and then going from there, 829 00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:39,480 Speaker 2: familial searches, looking in that trash again, maybe. 830 00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:44,279 Speaker 1: Maybe going through belongates. Yeah, you know, there's not really 831 00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:47,919 Speaker 1: a different way to phrase it. But today this ends 832 00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:51,600 Speaker 1: our episode. From now our update on the Golden State 833 00:49:51,680 --> 00:49:56,000 Speaker 1: Killer aka the Diamond Knot Killer, aka the Original Nightstalker 834 00:49:56,080 --> 00:50:00,880 Speaker 1: aka the East Area Rapist, and the Salia Ransacker. We 835 00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:04,719 Speaker 1: would like to hear from you. What do you think 836 00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:06,960 Speaker 1: will be the results of this What do you think 837 00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:12,080 Speaker 1: of a world wherein for the greater good, everyone's DNA 838 00:50:12,840 --> 00:50:19,279 Speaker 1: is considered part of this large database. Would do you 839 00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:23,640 Speaker 1: think the benefits outweigh the negatives? I mean, in this case, 840 00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:25,239 Speaker 1: it seems pretty clear cut that they do. 841 00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:28,920 Speaker 3: I propose that it's very similar to requiring you, this 842 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:31,759 Speaker 3: is going to be controversial, maybe to register your car. 843 00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:34,520 Speaker 3: Your car has to be in a database because it 844 00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:37,879 Speaker 3: could either allow you to escape from a criminal act 845 00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:39,440 Speaker 3: or you could even use it as a weapon. It 846 00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:43,000 Speaker 3: is a very powerful thing, and you can't have a 847 00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:45,520 Speaker 3: car unless you register it. You can do all those 848 00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:49,799 Speaker 3: things with the human body. So yeah, that logic. I mean, 849 00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:51,560 Speaker 3: I'm not saying that I necessarily support that, but I 850 00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:55,320 Speaker 3: could see law enforcement surely thinking that this is something 851 00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:59,000 Speaker 3: that would be very helpful and important to solving crimes, 852 00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:02,080 Speaker 3: but at the risk of of what privacy? And uh, 853 00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:03,480 Speaker 3: it's my DNA. 854 00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:07,719 Speaker 1: You also have a requirement to have a license to 855 00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:09,799 Speaker 1: operate a car, would you have would that lead into 856 00:51:09,840 --> 00:51:13,759 Speaker 1: having a license to reproduce? I mean, I'll double down 857 00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:19,120 Speaker 1: on controversy here. Uh, there are inevitably some some of 858 00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:23,240 Speaker 1: you listening are are going to see the potential parallel 859 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:29,160 Speaker 1: thread between registering a car, registering DNA, registering a firearm. 860 00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:32,520 Speaker 1: If we're going to go controversial, right, yeah, I don't 861 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:35,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, that's a really interesting argument, Noel, 862 00:51:35,480 --> 00:51:38,000 Speaker 1: Because you can't have an unregistered car yeah. 863 00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:40,279 Speaker 3: But you're right though, when you start going, you know, 864 00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:43,319 Speaker 3: taking that and taking it too, well, what if then 865 00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:46,960 Speaker 3: you need a license to reproduce? Or then we start 866 00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:49,799 Speaker 3: entering when we start when we start putting our physical 867 00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:53,319 Speaker 3: forms into the into the equation and treating them as 868 00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:55,440 Speaker 3: though we as though it were a motor vehicle or 869 00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:58,680 Speaker 3: a gun or something like that, that really opens up 870 00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:01,160 Speaker 3: a lot of a lot of worm It is interesting. 871 00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:06,479 Speaker 2: Bat your bags, I am. It's so weird. I would 872 00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:10,000 Speaker 2: have been so against this, like one thousand percent against 873 00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:14,440 Speaker 2: all of this, and for some reason, somehow, as I'm 874 00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:18,120 Speaker 2: getting older, oh gosh, you guys, I'm kind of like, well, 875 00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:22,319 Speaker 2: get everyone a DNA scanned and put it on a 876 00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:25,960 Speaker 2: tattoo and then their arms and they're registered. And if 877 00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:29,879 Speaker 2: anyone doesn't, no no, we will find you a no 878 00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:32,360 Speaker 2: no yes for you, no no, then we get you. 879 00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:35,359 Speaker 1: I love this voice. It sounds like he's either got 880 00:52:35,440 --> 00:52:38,640 Speaker 1: loose dentures or he's also eating cottage cheese. I'm not sure. 881 00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:41,840 Speaker 2: The cottage cheese is one of the finest foods you 882 00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:44,320 Speaker 2: can eat. I would recommend it early in the morning 883 00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:47,399 Speaker 2: and late in the afternoon and also early at night. 884 00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:52,600 Speaker 1: Well, you know what, Matt, I have to say, thank 885 00:52:52,640 --> 00:52:54,840 Speaker 1: you so much for giving us a note of levity, 886 00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:57,120 Speaker 1: gracing us, Yeah, gracing. 887 00:52:56,760 --> 00:53:00,759 Speaker 3: Us, goodness, gracious, that was saying, I can't smiling at 888 00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:01,799 Speaker 3: that old man. 889 00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:02,000 Speaker 1: Man. 890 00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:04,160 Speaker 3: That's what happens too.
