<p>Was Donna Richmond's murder the end of a string of burglaries and homicides in small-town California? Was the wrong person convicted? This podcast provides new information and insight into Donna's case. We also detail a string of ransacking burglaries, the murder of another young teen, and the shooting of a father protecting his daughter as she was being kidnapped. The police came close to catching the ransacker, but he shot his way out. Were all of these crimes committed by the same person? Did he change jurisdiction to avoid detection? UPDATE: Joseph James Deangelo has been identified and charged as the Visalia Ransacker and East Area Rapist.</p><p> Stay with us through the last episode to tie it all together.</p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

The best that I have listened to so far. appreciate all the details and the delivery of the facts. This is a no nonsense telling of events that I believe the victims of VR would appreciate. Good job in handling this information in a respectful manner.

Fantastic, I've listened to many podcasts and read several books on the VR, EAR and ONS but this is by far is more informed and detailed. I'm on episode 17 and can't listen quick enough, I'm aware that wrongful convictions are much more commonplace than generally known but don't yet know the status of Oscar Clifton today. I can't listen quick enough.

I was really excited to listen to this podcast, but I don't like the delivery.... I'm 6 mins in and ready to give up.

guys you've got to do something about the breathing. it sounds like one of you is breathing thru your nose into the mic during about 75% of the episode. it's to the point where I almost can't listen to it.
