"The man accused of being the "Night Stalker" is captured, bringing an end to the most violent, terrifying, and sweltering summer Los Angeles had ever seen. Identified as 25-year-old drifter Richard Ramirez, he was seized by an angry crowd in a Mexican neighborhood in East Los Angeles; after attempting to steal a car, he was struck with a metal bar—sparking a near-lynching. News of the terror's end spread quickly, and everyone said, "Thank God." Los Angeles Times, August 31, 1985.
"The repulsive and terrifying man arrives at the largest police station in LA County, escorted by over 3,000 officers; alongside Gil Carrillo, he is revealed to the world"

Exactly 41 years ago, Richard Ramirez experienced his final moments of freedom. Yet, as he himself stated, the moment he saw the patrol car turn the corner, he knew his life was over. That day, humanity witnessed one of the most aggressive and intimidating faces ever seen; he was like a hunter amidst easy prey—a true wolf among sheep—and this predatory behavior would persist for years to come under the glare of courtroom lights and cameras.
