Joseph James DeAngelo, known as the Golden State Killer, was sentenced to multiple life terms in prison Friday for the series of murders he committed over a 13-year period between 1973 and 1986.
The sentencing was delivered by Honorary Judge Michael Bowman in the Sacramento Superior Court in California, where victim’s families had gathered to hear the sentence.
In delivering his the maximum possible sentence in his power, Bowman said that the “victims must be assure that Mr. DeAngelo will never, ever walk this earth again.”
“The defendant deserves no mercy,” Bowman said.
DeAngelo’s crimes were the subject of a book called “I’ll Be Gone in the Dark” by Michelle McNamara, which was itself adapted into a recent six-part HBO docu-series. McNamara had spent years tracking down the Golden State Killer (a nickname she coined), but died in 2016, before DeAngelo was identified as the culprit.

After three days of victim statements, Joseph James DeAngelo, now known to be the infamous Golden State Killer, was sentenced Friday to multiple life terms in prison without the possibility of parole for numerous murders and rapes over a decade in California. He will die in prison.
Honorary Judge Michael Bowman delivered sentencing in the Sacramento Superior Court in California after district attorneys from counties all over the state delivered closing statements — some statements resulted in eruptive applause in the courtroom. “There is no prayer strong enough to save you,” Sacramento Da Anne Marie Schubert said, echoing Kris Pedretti, a victim who spoke on Tuesday. DeAngelo avoided eye contact and instead stared straight ahead as he sat in a wheelchair.
“The victims must be assured, that Mr. DeAngelo will never, ever, walk this earth again,” Bowman said, adding that he was handing out the maximum possible sentence. “The defendant deserves no mercy.

This Friday, July 10th, Tarantino’s Jackie Brown will play for a week at The Galleria Cinema in St. Louis For more info and showtimes, go Here
When Jackie Brown was released 23 years ago expectations were off the charts. It had been three and a half long years since Quentin Tarantino had rocked the movie world with the one-two punch of Reservoir Dogs (1992) and Pulp Fiction (1994). Since then he had laid relatively low, directing a segment of the anthology Four Rooms, writing the vampire hybrid From Dusk Til Dawn, and performing several forgettable “acting” roles (remember Destiny Turns On The Radio? ……didn’t think so.) I remember my own expectations and anticipation for Jackie Brown when I first heard that Tarantino had cast ebony action icon Pam Grier in the lead. I assumed that he was going to take...

As the week saw the U.S. setting records in cases of coronavirus with states like Texas and Flordia seeing the worst spikes, Mike Pence claimes the country has slowed the spread and flattened the curve to which John Oliver responded: “That is such an open and stupid lie.”
With the surge of cases, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver addressed another crisis the country is about to face as a result of the pandemic: evictions.
With one-third of households in the country being renters and renters tending to have lower incomes than homeowners, the pandemic is going to cause evictions for the foreseeable future. Stimulus checks, expanded unemployment insurance and state and federal moratoriums on evictions have helped navigate the storm, but those resources are not enough. “Those mechanisms are now starting to run out or expire and if we do nothing, experts are predicting horrific outcomes with millions of people left vulnerable,...
