And once that happened, this serial offender became known as The Golden State Killer.  Paul Holes has spent nearly 25 years investigating this case, and offers an incredible look at the killer's MO and patterns of behavior, and how that led to this offender evading capture for the last 40 years. Paul also shares how new technology is aiding in identifying, and hopefully bringing the Golden State Killer to justice.To learn more about how HLN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy
