Hidden in Plain Sight: How Joseph Naso Killed for 50 Years Undetected
When a routine probation check in 2010 uncovered a handwritten "List of 10" on a kitchen table in Reno, Nevada, investigators had no idea they were about to crack open decades of cold cases. Joseph Naso, a 76-year-old former photographer with a history of petty crimes, had been living under everyone's radar for years. That list would become the roadmap to connecting him to four brutal murders spanning from the 1970s to the 1990s. What makes this case even more disturbing? Recent revelations from a fellow death row inmate suggest Naso's actual victim count could be as high as 26 women. From his "rape diary" dating back to his teenage years to his obsessive collection of victim photographs and trophies, this is the story of how one man's compulsive documentation became his ultimate downfall. And why his narcissistic need for recognition led to confessions that law enforcement couldn't extract through traditional methods.
