Police believe a 72-year-old insurance claims adjuster arrested earlier this month is the most prolific serial killer in the city's history, having raped and strangled as many as 30 older women over two decades.

The break in the cold case came in October when John Floyd Thomas Jr., who had twice been convicted of sexual assault, had a DNA sample taken as part of an effort to build an offender database.

Thomas was charged April 2 with murdering one woman in 1972 and another in 1976. DNA matching Thomas' was found at three other crime scenes in the 1970s and '80s, police robbery-homicide Capt. Denis Cremins said.

Detectives now consider Thomas a suspect in at least 25 other killings, and the number could grow as detectives probe unsolved cases going back to the 1950s, Cremins said. It could not immediately be determined where the other killings took place.

"If he turns out to be the guy, he probably would be the largest ever (serial killer) in the city of Los Angeles," Cremins said.

Yeah....but when you find Granny chopped up in a freezer,or cooking up in stew,it's still a white guy.

As for this guy...what can you do?...but put him down.
 
Look at those 2 brothas out on the eastcoast. WRONG IS WRONG. I don't care about saving someone who looks like me ie this dude. If they do the crime they can talk with brotha Pecan Pie behind bars. I don't need these clowns hurting anyone I know or love.
 
Not really. Whites are still overwhelmingly more likely to be serial killers.

No, they just get caught more often because the authorities are more interested in their victims.

Means and opportunity are all that matter to someone with a "serial killer" mentality. Ain't got nothing to do with race.
 
Why are some people acting like this is the first black serial killer? Anyone who is reasonable informed could probably come up with over 10 black serial killers.

please..hell the police have only started profiling white women and women in general relatively recently compared to white men..

the fact that they just caught this dude speaks to the racism and racist attitudes of the system..

thats all..no big surprise
