Hillside Stranglers Crime Scene Photos (Bianchi & Buono)
The Hillside Strangler case began in Los Angeles in 1977 after the bodies of several young women and girls started appearing on hillsides and in other locations around the city. Police originally believed they were searching for a single killer, which led newspapers to use the name "Hillside Strangler." Investigators later discovered that the murders had actually been committed by two cousins, Kenneth Bianchi and Angelo Buono Jr. Between October 1977 and February 1978, the two men murdered 10 victims, many of whom were abducted after the killers pretended to be police officers. The way the victims were discovered became an important part of the case. Several bodies had been left in visible locations on hillsides or near roads around Los Angeles, apparently after being killed somewhere else. The first confirmed victim, 19-year-old Yolanda Washington, was found on a hillside near the Ventura Freeway. Other victims were discovered in residential areas, near hillsides, and along roads. The final Los Angeles victim, 20-year-old Cindy Hudspeth, was found after a helicopter pilot spotted her car partway down a cliff near Angeles Crest Highway; police later discovered her body inside the trunk. The repeated discovery of victims in these locations helped create the name that became associated with the killers. The murders stopped in Los Angeles after Bianchi moved to Washington state, but he was arrested there in January 1979 after killing two more women. During the investigation, Bianchi eventually admitted his involvement in the Los Angeles murders and identified Buono as his accomplice. Bianchi received life sentences after cooperating with prosecutors, while Buono was later convicted of nine murders and sentenced to life in prison without parole. Buono died in prison in 2002, while Bianchi remained incarcerated decades later.

Re: Hillside Stranglers Crime Scene Photos (Bianchi & Buono)
In a series of crimes that terrorized Los Angeles in the late 1970s, the Hillside Strangler murders stand out for their brutality and the ensuing fear they instilled in the community. The killers, Kenneth Bianchi and his cousin Angelo Buono Jr., were ultimately convicted for the murders of ten young women, ranging in age from twelve to twenty-eight. The crimes, committed between October 1977 and February 1978, were characterized by rape, torture, and strangulation. Bianchi and Buono posed as police officers to lure their victims, creating a false sense of safety before committing their heinous acts. The victims were then found strangled to death, with their bodies left in the hills around Los Angeles, leading the media to dub the killers as "The Hillside Strangler." This method of operation and the choice of dumping sites contributed to the growing fear and uncertainty in the community during the time of the murders. |
