Breaking: Authorities Think They Have the Golden State Killer In Custody
After over 40-years of searching, authorities think they have the Golden State Killer in custody, reports CNN, with additional reporting by USA Today.
“A 72-year-old ex-cop has been arrested in Sacramento in a decades-long search for the Golden State Killer who terrorized California communities in the 1970s and 1980s with a series of murders and rapes, according to media reports.
“The elusive, masked killer, also known as the East Area Rapist and the Original Night Stalker, is believed to have killed 12 people, raped 45 people and ransacked more than 100 area homes.
“Sacramento County jail records show that a man identified as Joseph James DeAngelo, was arrested and charged early Wednesday with two counts of murder. He was arrested under a warrant from the Ventura County sheriff’s department, according to the jail records.
“A person familiar with the issue confirmed to The New York Times that DeAngelo had been arrested in connection with the case. Unidentified law enforcement sources also told NBC News that DeAngelo is the suspect arrested in the Golden States Killer investigation.”
Below is the ongoing press conference, which takes place on National DNA Day. “We have found a needle in a haystack, and it was right here in Sacramento.”

New Gameplay Teaser Shows off Key Mechanics for ‘Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days’ [Watch]
Over a year after it was first announced, developer PikPok has dropped a new gameplay teaser for their upcoming entry in the Into the Dead series with Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days. We still don’t have a release date for the zombie strategy game, which is currently in development for an Early Access release on Steam later this year.
The new gameplay teaser shows off Our Darkest Days‘ high tension atmosphere, including key gameplay mechanics such as crafting meals and tools, healing survivors suffering from physical and mental injuries, and of course, fighting off zombies.
“We’re really excited to be showing off a snippet of what we’ve been working on since our announcement trailer in 2023,” says Juliann Lum, PikPok senior product manager. “So much more has gone into the game, including new ways for survivors to interact with the world around them, each other, and of course the dangerous undead that infest the city of Walton.” Lum went on to say that more reveals for Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days are coming over the next few months.
Set in 1980 Texas, Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days is a 2.5D side-scroller where players must guide a group of survivors from shelter to shelter within the beleaguered Walton City, which is infested with the undead. Managing resources and survivors’ needs is crucial as players try to keep ahead of the rising threat while executing plans to escape the quarantined city area.
As mentioned, you’ll be scavenging for supplies, crafting tools and weapons, as well as fighting off the undead, all the while keeping constant movement as the zombie threat closes in. While their experiences will lead survivors to gain new skills, players will also need to manage their physical and psychological needs, as Our Darkest Days has a permadeath mechanic.
