In the Summer of 1985, Los Angeles was held in the grip of terror. The Night Stalker, Richard Ramirez, struck without rhyme or reason and without any consistent victimology. No one was safe and everyone was scared. We discuss some lesser know facts of the case, while highlighting the victims' lives and exploring how the Satanic Panic of the 80's fueled the flames during an already hot, cruel summer.
