I came across this thread on Reddit that Kat had started. I never knew all these other things happened but they certainly have alot of EARmarks and even some VR thrown in. The German Shepard being 'borrowed' is interesting. Is that a different one than the 3-toed? If this is the work of ONS is it now even more logical to conclude that he's EAR?
Folks in the Offerman/Manning burglary thread asked about the other non-canon Goleta rapes/incidents, so here are a few of them in a nutshell.
I want to say up front that purists might want to skip this though. None of these are proven to have anything to do with the Golden State Killer, and indeed, many of them probably do not. The killer was known to be in Goleta for the October 1st attack and the December 29th burglaries and subsequent early-morning murder. It stands to reason that anything odd during this time period has the POTENTIAL to be related to this criminal. If even some of these are connected though, it could prove significant, because it could place the killer in the area for more than just a few nights, and it could show that the same type of prowling activities that occurred in his Northern California crimes also occurred in Southern California. The crimes listed below are submitted for your consideration based on close geographical ties, timing, M.O. links, or because the event was so out of the ordinary for a small, quiet, low-crime town like Goleta.
And remember:
October 1st, 1979 was the aborted Goleta attack that we know was himDecember 29th/30th was the Offerman/Manning murder
August 28th, 1979: Attempted Rape
A young woman was sunbathing in a secluded area of More Mesa beach, roughly two and a half miles south of the Offerman/Manning murder site, when a nude man wearing a stocking over his head grabbed her and forced himself on her. He attempted to rape her but was unable to maintain an erection.
September 5th, 1979: Prowler
A young woman living on Berkeley Road was getting ready for bed and spotted a man watching her through her window. He ran off when he was spotted. Berkeley Road, remember, is where the interesting dog incident happened. It’s right in the middle of Golden State Killer territory in 1979 and 1981.
October 24th, 1979 6:00 PM: Rape
A twelve-year-old girl was riding her bike on the Maria Ygnacio Bike Path and came across a man, who engaged her in conversation. She told him that she was searching for her sisters, and the man claimed to know where they were. He took her into the creek area, produced a six-inch knife, and raped her on a board in the creek. An elderly man walking his dog came upon the scene, and the rapist fled. The rapist wasn’t wearing a mask, and the girl was able to provide to describe her attacker as white, early twenties, with blonde, shoulder-length hair. He had a handlebar mustache, and he was wearing a black shirt and a dark green jacket with a pattern or “stitched design”. He had on a ring with a dark red gemstone on the ring finger or middle finger of his right hand. This event happened about a mile away from the Offerman/Manning murder, and it happened a few weeks after the failed attack on Queen Ann Lane. If this was the assailant, perhaps with a move down south, he was contemplating a change in M.O.? Perhaps two failed attacks in a row led to a change in tactics? If it’s related, it kind of harkens back to some of the earlier rapes where he led his victims outside or down a canal.
November 1st, 1979: Phone Call
A young woman who lived off of Calle Real received a phone call in the middle of the night. The man on the other end made non-specific threats and then hung up.
November 4th, 1979 2:00 AM: Assault
A woman was walking near Cottage Hospital (one of the confirmed burglary victims worked there), when a man grabbed her from behind and tried to drag her away. The woman was able to break free.
November 7th, 1979: Phone Call
The same young woman who had received the threatening phone call on the first received another phone call in the middle of the night. The man on the other end threatened to kill her. It was the same voice that had called previously. These calls are interesting, because phone calls of the hang-up, obscene, and threatening varieties had been part of the perpetrator’s M.O. for many years, but it’s conspicuously absent in Goleta. Perhaps the phone calls did in fact occur, only not to any victims that were chosen for an attack.
November 12th, 1979: Rape
A teenager walking her bike on a biking trail near San Pesaro Drive when she was grabbed by an unknown man. He ripped off her clothes and raped her near the bike path. This occurred near an area between Calle Real, where the suspicious phone calls happened, and Cathedral Oaks, which connects to the Offerman/Manning murder street.
Mid November, 1979: Break-in
A prowler entered a garage on Dorado Drive two times in the middle of November and rummaged through items. This street is right in the heart of Golden State Killer activity, connecting to San Patricio Drive, Cathedral Oaks Road, and situated to the immediate southwest of Mountain View School and Queen Ann Lane. Events like this happened several times during the East Area Rapist phase of the killer’s crime spree.
November 20th, 1979 Afternoon: Phone Call
An obscene phone call occurred on Nueces Drive, a street to the northeast of the More Mesa beach area.
November 22nd, 1979 2:15 AM: Rape
A woman in her mid-twenties living about eight miles to the east of the Offerman/Manning murder site was raped in her house by a white male in the early morning hours. The man blitz-attacked her a few minutes after her boyfriend left. I don’t have any M.O. details that match up to the Golden State Killer, and the geography would be a bit of an outlier, but it’s included here because of the timing.
November 22nd, 1979 11:45 AM: Phone Call
Another obscene phone call occurred, this time on a street right off of Calle Real. This house was only a few yards away from the house that received the obscene phone calls on November 1st and 7th.
November 21st through November 24th, 1979
A woman living just south of Berkeley Road received over a dozen hang-up and obscene phone calls a day for four days straight.
November 28th, 1979: Multiple break-ins
Two homes on Berkeley Road were broken into and ransacked during the day. Nothing was found to be stolen. Several homes on Hannah Drive, which would be visited by the Golden State Killer on December 29th, were also broken into and ransacked. Homes on Merida Drive, which connects to Parejo Drive and Toltec Drive (very near where the Golden State Killer murders would occur in 1981) were broken into and ransacked as well.
Early December, 1979: Attempted break-in
A house on Chilon Way, a street between Calle Real and and Hollister Avenue, had a prowler that attempted to break in. The resident was inside the house and raised the alarm, which caused the prowler to flee.
Early January, 1980: German Shepherd
A woman living on Berkeley Road noticed over a long period of time that someone had been scaling her fence, entering her backyard, and “borrowing” her German Shepherd. It’s unknown if this activity occurred the night of the Offerman/Manning murder or not, but the timing is pretty close.
Early January, 1980: Phone calls
On a day in early January, 1980, a resident living nearby received a dozen obscene phone calls in the early morning hours.
