October 26, 1962 - Anthony Wimberly
Over the span of roughly six weeks in late 1984 and early 1985, Wimberly carried out a series of robberies in Oakland that escalated to murder, killing three women in quick succession before his arrest. The crimes also included the rape of a child, compounding the scale of harm inflicted in a short period. His case reflects the pattern of rapidly accelerating violence that defines many serial offenders whose criminal activity intensifies before intervention.
