Grim Sleeper Serial Killer May Have 8 More Victims

Los Angeles police investigators say eight more women may be linked to the "Grim Sleeper" serial killings of women and girls shot or strangled since 1985.

A county grand jury last month indicted 58-year-old Lonnie Franklin Jr. (pictured) for 10 killings in South Los Angeles. Victims ranged in age from 14 to 36.

The Police Department says in a news release Tuesday that detectives are now focusing on eight women known to have had a connection with Franklin. Six of the women are missing persons, one is an unsolved homicide victim and the eighth is an unidentified woman.

Scary guy. Please give him swift justice. Take him out to the back of the courthouse and shoot him. How many women really died at the hands of this sick pervert?
