He was charming enough to win an episode of The Dating Game back in the 70's and that charm is what allowed Rodney Alcala to slip through police's fingers time and time again. Though his reign of terror lasted only a few years, he may be one of the most prolific serial killers of our time and police still need your help to identify some of his victims.

Rodney Alcala was, for all intents and purposes, a great kid and a stand out in his high school days. Other than his father leaving the family, there was nothing to indicate that he would be the sadistic, sexual pedophile he later became.

Pretty sure this is where the rule about not getting in cars with strangers stems from. Rodney Alcala is basically the perfect example of stranger danger, human scum, and a failed judicial system. Prepare to scream at whatever device you’re listening on as you learn about how many times this creep slipped right through those big legal cracks.
