After years of criminal antisocial behavior, Richard Ramirez started to act on his inappropriate sexual urges with a series of child sexual assaults and molestation. This would also include at least one failed attempt at child abduction. Richard Ramirez's first known rape and murder took place on 4/10/1984, in San Francisco, CA. The victim 9-year-old victim was ritualistically posed and wasn't counted among his convictions being he was linked with DNA in 2009, years after his trials. Richard Ramirez would go on to commit one of the most heinous crimes sprees in United States history. His method of murder varied, and his crimes included acts of torture and sodomy. His victims ranged in age from 9 to 84-years-old. Ramirez would have likely continued killing if it weren't for his arrest on 6/7/1985, in Los Angeles, CA.
