Some residents of canyon Lake ca were so fearful of the killer. They temporarily fled the community. Women who lived alone stayed with friends and couples bought guns.

Discussed over her murders. It's possible that Dana felt the need to confirm her value, she was reminding herself of the good things that had come out of her atrocious deeds. Just much as she was telling Lorene what a thoughtful mother figure to Jason. She was meanwhile Detective Greco. Also had his attention focused on Jason, following the tip Gina stylist Greco, founded Jason Wilkins, registered at a local elementary school.

I did Greco waited outside Jim's house for a glimpse of his suspect, but He was soon disappointed. A woman did all up at the home, but she looked nothing like the description of Dana, though it's not clear. Who this woman was Greco did counted her as a potential suspect. After speaking with her deflated, he decided that the lead was most likely a dead end. Taking a step back, he decided to speak again with cherry who married to Dana's father. The last time he had interviewed her was after Norma Davis had died. He figured he'd reached out to check on a potential link between Norma and the second victim June. Greco, went to see Jerry and was surprised and that she knew June quite well June. The husband had been good friends with Jerry's husband, Russell after hearing about their connection went out on a limb and gave Jerry the description of the woman. They were looking for

They needed a search warrant and they needed one now. After Jerry hung up with Greco. She was filled with anxiety.

An interview during an episode of the tv series, diabolical women, Jerry stated she grabbed her husband's gun and her cell phone and waited tensely in her living room for Russell to come home from work.

Dana was the killer he had Officers go to Jim's house in Lake Elsinore to serve play the scene while he wrote up the warrant officer, sat in anticipation outside the home.

Taking notes on the layout and waiting for Dana to return, but their predator wasn't ready to come home just yet. She had one more victim to claim when we return Dana assaults, her third victim.
