August 30, 1955 - Dean Carter
Over a concentrated period in spring 1984, Carter killed four women in California, with a fifth death also attributed to him — a cluster of violence that placed him among the cases defining California's response to serial and spree offending in that era. The combination of charges — murder and serial rape — reflects the sustained predatory pattern prosecutors documented across the investigation. He was sentenced to death.
