Night Ripper dies


On August 24, 1990, Night Ripper murdered Sonja Larsen, 18, and Christina Powell, 16, as they slept in their own homes. One of the girls was sodomized, and the other had her nipples cut. On August 27, 1990, Night Ripper murdered Christina Hoyt, 17, by decapitating her, then setting her body on fire. Her naked corpse, with extreme third-degree burns after the fire, was still washed, and posed sexually on the bed, as Jolie Grimmson's had also been. The difference, however, is that this one had extreme third-degree burns from the fire, and it didn't even look like the same person.
The next day, August 25, 1990, Tracy Paules, and Manuel Taboada, both 23, were found dead in their apartments, all 2 with their throats slit. Manuel, in addition to having his throat cut, had his stomach open after receiving so many stab wounds, and his right hand was practically ripped from his wrist. Tracy Paules, on the other hand, was found with a switchblade stuck in her vagina. Night Ripper, without showing any regrets or remorse, continued his murderous career, until he was caught red-handed on September 1, 1991. A cotton swab with traces of his DNA that he left at one of the crime scenes (which he probably dropped it out of his pocket, or something similar) linked him to the earlier Gainesville murders. Night Ripper had "gone low", as the saying goes, and the house had finally fallen to him.
On September 16, 1991, Night Ripper was sentenced to 3 life sentences, plus 170+ years of additional prison terms, still harkening back to the robberies he had committed in Tampa, Florida. On February 15, 1994, he finally pleaded guilty to all charges brought against him. On April 20, 1994, Night Ripper was sentenced to death by electric chair, and was sent to death row. After a last meal of lobster, chicken drumet, chicken breast, baked potato, and strawberry cheesecake, Night Ripper was executed via lethal injection at 6:13 pm on October 25, 2006. His identity without the mask was never shown to the public.
