The 2020 HBO docuseries I’ll Be Gone in the Dark documents not only the various crimes of Joseph DeAngelo (The Golden State Killer, Visalia Ransacker, East Area Rapist, Original Night Stalker) throughout multiple communities in California, it also follows the story of Michelle McNamara, the true crime writer who dedicated much of her final years on Earth to bringing the former police officer to justice.
And plus, the two killers have a shared name: The Night Stalker although Joseph DeAngelo was later referred to as The Original Night Stalker once Ramirez took on the moniker.
If you are a fan of Night Stalker’s approach to detailing each of the crimes by Richard Ramirez and the detectives on his trail, then I’ll Be Gone in the Dark is a must-watch (if you haven’t watched it already).
