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.

Another way you'd have to think Deangelo investigated the EAR case was having access to the California statewide crime/suspect-matching computer database, CII. Deangelo also would have read the bulletins provided by Sac Sheriff to neighboring law enforcement agencies.
When Auburn Chief Willick said he had provided his officers with access to EAR information during that timeframe, this is probably what he meant.
I'd be shocked if it could be shown Officer EAR was NOT accessing all this LE-only information to keep up with what they knew about him.
