Investigators said he gained access to the homes by prying open a window or door while the victims slept. He would then shine a light in the face of his victims and tie up the female victim.<br />
If a male victim was present, the Golden State Killer would tie him up as well before ransacking the home and raping the female victim.<br />
Now divorced and recently retired, he was quietly living in a single-story home in the Sacramento suburb of Citrus Heights until Tuesday&#8217;s arrest.<br />
Police have now finished combing through the beige-colored house, removing boxes of evidence, guns, cars a motorcycle and a boat, among other items.<br />

<p class="imageCaption">DeAngelo is believed to be responsible for at least 12 murders and more than 50 rapes in California between 1975 and 1986.<br />
&#8216;He&#8217;s a psychological sadist,&#8217; he said. &#8216;His big thing was the fear he was instilling in the victims,&#8217; says Paul Holes.</p>
</div>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">Holes claimed that DeAngelo was extremely uncooperative while being investigated after his arrest.: &#8216;I watched seven hours-worth of the interviews, and I just don&#8217;t see him talking,&#8217; Holes said.<br />

DeAngelo was taken into custody after police established a DNA match from items he discarded with samples found at his many crime scenes.<br />
They used a sample from an Internet genealogy site submitted by a distant relative to narrow their search to him, according to the Sacramento Bee.<br />
Sacramento County Chief Deputy Attorney Steve Grippi told the paper they compared crime scene DNA to online &#8216;open-source&#8217; profiles until they found the relative.<br />
After months of comparisons, cops finally narrowed the DNA down to one Joseph James DeAngelo and began surveilling him. A day later investigators got a sample from an item he discarded.<br />
Th sample was sent to the county crime lab which found &#8216;overwhelming evidence&#8217; that after 44 years they had finally got their man.<br />
DeAngelo was first hit with two murder charges for the 1978 deaths of Brian Maggiore and his wife Katie, who are believed to be the Golden State Killer&#8217;s first murder victims.</p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">An old newspaper article states that DeAngelo was a police officer in Auburn, and was eventually fired in 1979 for shoplifting from a Sacramento drug store. Auburn City Manager Jack Sausser said at the time that DeAngelo failed to answer any of the city&#8217;s investigations and there &#8216;was justifiable grounds to remove him from the public sector&#8217;.<br />
Another old newspaper article said DeAngelo was in the Navy and served aboard the USS Canberra, a Baltimore-class cruiser. He left the navy in 1967.<br />
