Liz Garbus adapts Michelle McNamara's true-crime bestseller about the Golden State Killer in HBO's IllBeGoneInTheDark. Read THR's TV review:
When the Golden State Killer — born Joseph James DeAngelo — was caught in 2018, more than three decades after his last known murder, it was a triumph of investigative ingenuity. Using DNA evidence collected from crime scenes well before "genetic fingerprinting" entered police toolkits, officials were able to identify DeAngelo, a former law enforcement officer, via a genealogy database and DNA samples taken from his trash.
Author Michelle McNamara was fixated for years on the Golden State Killer, who is believed to be responsible for at least 13 murders and 50 rapes in three California towns during the '70s and '80s. Her monomania — along with her victim-centric approach to true crime — are chronicled in the posthumous bestseller, published two years after her death at the age of 46.
One survivor, an adolescent when she was attacked, recalls her father becoming irate when she revealed to a friend that she had been sexually assaulted. Another, now middle-aged, says she can only speak up about her experiences even now because her parents are dead. If DeAngelo had never preyed on her, "who would I be now?" she wonders. In a remarkable reunion of the victims, a couple observes that they were the only ones to stay together after the attacks.
