Los Angeles, CA—So often the innocent victims of serial or mass killers are forgotten, that is why the authors of the most recent Bill Bonin Freeway Killer historical biography, Without Redemption, sought to include as much about them as possible. Each of them had a family, friends and communities they belonged to, some more than others as a number were runaways lost on the streets and thus easy pickings for the manipulations of Bonin.
Today, over 40 years later, many might be husbands, fathers or grandfathers. But Bill Bonin robbed these boys of they’re futures to satisfy is most base desires, something for which he felt very little guilt or remorse. Families left behind were torn apart, some literally, by the Freeway Killer and his five accomplices, one who escaped justice for double-murder with Bonin’s help. Thanks to the new discovered diaries of Bill Bonin, that story is told carefully in Without Redemption: Creation & Deeds of Freeway Killer Bill Bonin, His Five Accomplices & How One Who Escaped Justice by Vonda Pelto, Ph.D. and Michael B. Butler.
Here are snapshots of some of Bonin’s victims and, below that, a complete list of they’re ages and the date they crossed paths with Bill Bonin and company.
