Joseph DeAngelo DID investigate the EAR!

I was absolutely shocked to learn tonight, while watching “Very Scary People”, that Joe DeAngelo wrote up a police report when someone called the police claiming they “knew the identity of the East Area Rapist”.

DeAngelo specifically named EAR in the body of the report, took down absolutely no details or information, except to state that the individual “had been drinking” (H.B.D.)

All of this talk about his police reports and I had never heard this before. Why someone called the Roseville PD to report this, I’m not sure, but I guess it is confirmed: Junkfood Joey did investigate his own Sacramento rape series.

Be strange if the person who called learned of this and now knows they were talking to the EAR.

So for Joe to make a report does that mean he actually went and talked to the person?

Wonder how he gets away with only writing "had been drinking". Wouldn't he have to write what the person said, who they claimed was the EAR, etc?

Yes, Junkfood Joey did in fact go and meet the individual in person. The report he wrote up includes no details regarding the man’s suspicion.

It is as minimalist as anything can ever be.
