By LINDA DEUTSCH and DON THOMPSON Associated Press
LOS ANGELES June 7, 2013 (AP)

Richard Ramirez, the notorious serial killer known as the Night Stalker, died early Friday in a hospital, a state official said.

Ramirez, 53, "passed away this morning," San Quentin State Prison spokesman Lt. Sam Robinson told The Associated Press. No other details were released.

The Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation said Ramirez died of "natural causes." He had been housed on death row for decades and was awaiting execution, even though it has been years since anyone has been put to death in California.

Ramirez had been taken from death row to Marin General Hospital.

Ramirez was convicted of 13 murders that terrorized Southern California in 1984 and 1985, and was sentenced to death.

Satanic symbols were left at murder scenes and some victims were forced to "swear to Satan" by the killer, who entered homes through unlocked windows and doors.

Ramirez was captured and beaten in 1985 by residents of an East Los Angeles neighborhood while attempting a carjacking.

At his first court appearance, Ramirez raised a hand with a pentagram drawn on it and yelled, "Hail, Satan."

After a four-year trial — one of the longest in U.S. history — Ramirez was sentenced to death in 1989. He also was convicted of many sexual assaults and burglaries.

In 2006, the California Supreme Court upheld Ramirez's convictions and death sentence.

In 2009, San Francisco police said DNA linked Ramirez to the April 10, 1984, killing of 9-year-old Mei Leung. She was killed in the basement of a residential hotel in San Francisco's Tenderloin neighborhood where she lived with her family.

Ramirez had been staying at nearby hotels.

Ramirez previously was tied to killings in Northern California. He was charged in the shooting deaths of Peter Pan, 66, and his wife, Barbara, in 1985 just before his arrest in Los Angeles, but he was never tried in that case.

In 2007, the U.S. Supreme Court refused to review the convictions and sentence.

He actually got married in prison. She must be as fucked in the head as he was.

It's being reported that he died of liver failure and turned a brilliant shade of green before his death, green as in highlighter green. Weird.

This is a list of what that monster did to his victims. He's in Hell, I hope it's everything I've always read it to be.

April 10, 1984: Mei Leung, 9, was found dead in the basement of a hotel basement where Ramirez was living. His DNA was matched to the crime scene in 2009.

June 28, 1984: Jennie Vincow, 79, was found dead in her apartment. She had been stabbed repeatedly and her throat was slashed so severely she was almost decapitated. Ramirez sexually assaulted her after the killing.

Mar. 17, 1985: On March 17, 1985, Ramírez attacked 20-year old María Hernández outside her home. He shot her before entering her house. Inside was Dayle Okazaki, age 34, whom Ramírez shot and killed. Hernández survived. Less than an hour later, Ramirez struck again in Monterey Park, attacking 30-year-old Tsai 'Veronica' Lian Yu. He pulled her out of her car onto the road and shot her several times, before fleeing. A police officer found her still breathing, but she later died at the hospital.

Mar. 27, 1985: Ramirez shot Vincent Zazzara, 64, and his wife Maxine, 44. Mrs Zazzara's body was mutilated with several stab wounds. She had a carving of the letter 'T' over her left breast and her eyes were gouged out. The mutilations were post-mortem, according to an autopsy.

May 14, 1985: Ramirez broke into the home of William and Lillie Doi. He shot William in the head and ferociously beat Lillie, but she survived.

May 29 June 1, 1985: Mabel Bell, 84, and her invalid sister, Florence Lang, 81, are beaten with a hammer in their Monrovia home. Bell was killed.
Elyas Abowath, 35, was shot to death in his Diamond Bar home and wife was beaten.

May 30, 1985: Carol Kyle, 41, of Burbank, was raped and sodomized by Ramirez.

July 2, 1985: Ramirez kills Mary Louise Cannon, 75, of Arcadia, by beating her and slashing her throat.

July 5, 1985: Whitney Bennett, 16, survived after being beaten with a tire iron by Ramirez.

July 7, 1985: Ramirez beats to death Joyce Lucille Nelson, 61, of Monterey Park.

July 20, 1985: Ramirez shot and killed Glendale couple, Maxson Kneiding, 68, and his wife Lela, 66, in their home.

Later that day, he shot and killed Chainarong Khovananth, 32, of Sun Valley, then sodomized his wife and son.

Aug. 6, 1985: Ramirez shot both Christopher Petersen, 38, and his wife, Virginia, 27, in the head. Miraculously, they both survived.

Aug. 8, 1985: Elyas Abowath, 35, is shot to death in his Diamond Bar home. His wife is beaten.

Aug. 25, 1985: Ramirez broke into the Mission Viejo apartment of Bill Carns, 29, and his fiancée, Inez Erickson, 29. Ramirez shot Carns in the head and raped Erickson. Both victims survived.

The trial itself last about a year, which is really long. The four years includes all of the pre-trial motions and appeals.

The whole case and the aftermath was insane. Ramirez thoroughly enjoyed himself and the attention. After he was convicted, he had so many women fighting over him in jail. Dipshits.

Here's the lucky dipshit who married him in prison in 1996, Darlene Lioy. Even though he confessed to the rapes and murders and never showed any remorse...she claimed he was sweet and innocent.

She must be heartbroken. I'm glad he's dead.

Well adjusted women don't marry people like that. There is something wrong with her and ALL the women who do this kind of thing, from marrying these guys to giving them support in any fashion.
