Man accused of being 'Golden State Killer' to plead guilty
Joseph DeAngelo, a former police officer accused of being the Golden State Killer, is expected to plead guilty on June 29 and be sentenced in August to life without the possibility of parole after the surviving victims and relatives of those killed confront him in court. We are so totally supportive of the death penalty and yet we are totally supportive of this decision to let the Golden State Killer plead to life without possibility of parole," said Ron Harrington. Almost 40 years have passed and literally some of the victims have passed away, there are foundational issues from an evidentiary standpoint, he explained. Gavin Newsom has halted executions so long as he is governor, though the death penalty remains legal in California. Too many victims have passed and theres a lot of other people not just our case that wanted closure, Harrington said.
