About this episode
By the summer of 1985, Richard Ramirez had turned fear into routine — breaking into homes across California, invoking Satan during his attacks, and leaving investigators scrambling to connect the crimes.
In this episode of Night Watch, Katie Ring continues our three-part deep dive as the violence escalates and the manhunt intensifies. From a critical press conference that may have tipped Ramirez off, to a teenage neighbor who wrote down a license plate, and the single fingerprint that finally gave police a name, we examine how the hunt for the Night Stalker took a decisive turn.
