In this documentary, we're covering the infamous solved true crime case that shows why you should NEVER leave your door unlocked at night: the true story of Richard Ramirez, also known as the Night Stalker. Though a recent Netflix documentary has been released covering the Night Stalker's case, there were a few key details they left out, and today, we're covering it all. In the 80s, a serial killer began stalking the streets of California. Residents were terrified, and the mystery soon garnered national attention. None other than Richard Ramirez, the Night Stalker committed at least 13 murders before he was finally caught and brought to justice. Detectives finally cracked the case after a lengthy investigation when a young boy managed to spot a piece of crucial evidence that broke the case wide open. Join us for a true crime storytime covering the solved case of Richard Ramirez.

Probably the worst thing ever, having someone break into your home, your "safe place", and completely violate you. You'd lose all sense of safety and feelings of security.

And yes realizing he was fundamentally incapable of connecting/trusting other humans he embraced the power he felt in evil rather than cower in the light of others. It's not just that people learn to abuse because they have been. IT's that the release of emotions fear, pain, terror, pleasure all become imprinted in the developing mind as a comingled experience. Where one should be learning to pair touch with nurturing, compassion, and care, their primal psyche is seared with hurt in place of love.

My Dad was living in Los Angelos during the time Richard Ramirez was on a killing spree. One day after a long day from work he found his apartment door wide open. Everything inside was a mess... papers scattered, drawers open as if someone broke in and try to steal something. Luckily, dad didn't had anything valuable and no one was hurt that day. Don't know if Richard had anything to do with but it's something he experienced during that timeline. Everyone, get good door locks. Always lock your doors. I may be paranoid but I always check my door and sleep with a crossbow.

I went to a drivers Ed run by retired police officers. Once I was driving and talking to a teacher and we were talking about serial killers. He told me about how he met Richard Ramirez when he was a young cop and lived in California. He was the neighbor of (I believe) Maria Hernandez and Dale, so he came home to be a witness to the scene of the crime. So he met Richard in court, and he was in close contact to him on an elevator. He said there was pure evil and no remorse in Richards eyes.

Well i mean, he was abused from the second he gained sentience, everyone close to him was a bad influence on him. He witnessed a family member that idolized commit murder in front of his very eyes at a very young age. Combine all of these and you have more trauma than you could ever hope to fix. I don't believe that Good and Evil are genetic traits. And in Richard's case he himself is a victim in many ways, this doesn't excuse his actions in any way but it really goes to show that abused children adapts to their surroundings, and this is the result of that.

I asked him why the woman was a tweaker too and he said she was really messed up and so was her son. I asked why her son was messed up and he said because he killed a lot of people in the bay area where he and my dad's side of the family even lived.

Right quick, just disconnecting Richard's child self from who he ultimately became, makes me feel so sad that he became a disgusting and cruel "person" because of the abuse brought to him by other men, who were older and absolutely worthless! There needs to be some way to prevent children from growing into monsters.

​​@@ChanaElisheva I think most people end up somewhere in between. They become alcoholics and drug addicts with various mental problems, but don't actually kill people. Most people with such a traumatic childhood (especially in the 70s/80s) don't even know or believe that they can still get help and get treatment. There's still a lot of misinformation about therapy and many people don't believe in it, aren't educated on mental health, so the social awareness of that must've been incredibly low in the times when Ramirez was young. Someone with so many traumas, from a poor family living in a small city over 40 years ago with zero education on psychology would very likely not go to therapy or seek self improvement on their own. To make it clear - I'm absolutely not trying to excuse people who do evil things, just trying to understand and analyze it.

This monster is as evil as it gets. The devastation he caused will last for generations. So many blame his childhood. The things he went through definitely affected what he became but they weren't the reason he committed the crimes he did. There are children who have been through just as much and worse and are kind, giving, generous souls. As for his "groupies", I can't even begin to fathom what their motivations were.

His childhood quite literally is the reason why he became how he is. Other people turning out fine doesn’t mean his childhood wasn’t the reason for this. When you raised with violence and learn horrific things from a young age, you’ll most likely will turn out evil. I’m quite certain he wouldn’t turn out so evil if he was raised in a loving family

His modus operandi is different from all others and for that i still cant find any info why is that. He was chaotic in his killings and attacks. Is like he only wanted to kill… nothing more… he ruined so many families.

Richard is the classic case of "monsters are born, not made." Everyone closest to him both failed him, were negligent and encouraged him into depravity. All under whoever tried to "help" him, right under their roof. His dad, his war vet cousin, Mike and his wife, Roberto, his brother in law. EVERYONE failed him.

All your emotion, ability to feel empathy & remorse for doing anything bad, all of that are built up in childhood. He had an abusive father, a brother who shot his wife in front of him in the face & got away with it, he grew up in that environment, for him all of this is normal, according to him this is what every human did!
