Richard Ramirez Tour Fail
I was in the middle of writing a novel – one that will be based on the Ramirez cases. Then I became distracted and went on YouTube as we do when we’re procrastinating. There, I found this mess of a Richard Ramirez location “tour”, starting at victim Jennie Vincow’s house. These two YouTubers have made…

Common Stupid Arguments About the Richard Ramirez Case
When the case is made for Ramirez’s appeals, the same common arguments arise, often designed to shut people down with thought-terminating clichés, such as “You’re a hybristophile, get help!” You will find this low-grade insult on every platform. I’ll start with that tired old “hybristophile” put-down: Hybristophiles tend to be sexually aroused by criminality. Suggesting…

The Rodriguez Break-in
The Netflix documentary, Night Stalker: the Hunt for a Serial Killer is full of errors which, to be fair, makes it no different to any other Richard Ramirez documentary. They’re all full of lies about what the victims described. But what qualifies the Netflix series for The Most Misleading Award is its use of CGI…

Reasonable Fucking Doubt!
Well, it’s enough to make you swear. Yesterday, 28th Feb 2024, the State of Texas executed a man called Ivan Cantu by lethal injection; perhaps you’ve heard of his case, perhaps not. Why am I mentioning him on a blog demonstrating Ramirez’s unfair trial? Because of reasonable doubt. Reasonable fucking doubt. Taken at face value,…

“Cupcake Cindy”
This is another aspect of the Night Stalker case that descends into the realms of the absurd. It is well-known that Ramirez had many admirers during the trial and beyond. One was a juror, Cynthia “Cindy” Haden. Haden started as an alternate juror. According to Philip Carlo’s book, on Valentine’s Day 1989, the female jurors…

False Confessions?
“But he literally confessed!” During the preliminary hearing, Richard Ramirez’s defence team asked Judge Nelson to listen to an hour-long taped police interview from the day he was arrested. Ramirez had repeatedly demanded a lawyer but the police refused and continued questioning him. This violated his Miranda rights. Apparently, Ramirez said some things that could…

“Murder Clothes” – The Myth of the Night Stalker’s Appearance
We have examined the eyewitness descriptions and composite sketches of the Night Stalker many times on this site but we have never really discussed his clothes. The Night Stalker is a caricature. He invaded in the dark, clad in black from head to foot. He wore a “black Members Only type jacket”, dark baseball caps…

Sensation-Seeking Parasites!
“The media, the television, authors, newspapers; they tragically fail in their most important duty to report the truth in an unbiased and truthful manner. It’s easier to convict a man with words than with evidence“. Richard Ramirez – from an interview with Mike Watkiss The media frenzy surrounding the capture of Richard had guaranteed a…

Shapeshifter
When Reasonable Questioning Gets Shut Down. * Images may require a desktop for greater clarity * So many “true crime” podcasts and channels are available to us; a brief scan of my YouTube account reveals countless lists. Checking out the episodes dedicated to Ramirez, you will notice one recurring thing; they are all the same.…

One More Time..
*some images are best viewed on a desktop, due to size* “I don’t need to hear all of society’s rationalisations. I’ve heard them before, and the fact remains that what is, is.” Richard Ramirez Why? We did not wake up one morning and decide to start writing about this case, it was a slow realisation…
