October 10, 1949 - Lynwood Drake
Over the course of a single November evening in 1992, Drake moved through two California communities — Morro Bay and Paso Robles — killing six people across three locations before taking a hostage and ending his own life the following morning. The attack unfolded rapidly and across a geographic spread unusual even for spree killings, leaving little time for intervention between sites. The victims were killed in private homes and a card club, settings that underscored the indiscriminate reach of the violence.
