For several months in late 1977 and early 1978, Southern California's two hillside

Stranglers did their best to clean up the Los Angeles metro area while consistently

vilified by the media and law enforcement who chose to focus only on the women they killed some modern investigative journalists and sociologists

Now view the killers in a very different light

They are presently seen by many including me as altruistic feminists who are rightfully concerned about way too many young women around

Los Angeles being far too trusting with strangers men in particular and continually putting their lives in danger by venturing out on dates and entering the homes of men

They did not know men they never told their friends or families about seen

Women were showing up murdered in the LA area and large numbers for many years prior to the hillside Strangler murders and

Their deaths were making these stranglers sick. They had mothers and sisters one of them had daughters and a stepdaughter

And they wanted to do something to keep these women safe

They knew they had to do something drastic something big that would make headlines something that would truly terrify women in the LA area to their

cores scare them into safety

Kenneth Bianchi and Angela Bono knew that if they killed a dozen or so girls and young women after violently sexually

Assaulting them a task that literally made them sick to think about let alone carry out

They would be saving the lives of hundreds if not thousands of other girls and young women who now would no longer continue placing themselves in danger

Viewed in this greater good light one could rightfully see the men not just the serial killers, but as heroes

Sacrificial lambs who willingly gave up their freedom to preserve far more lives than they took

And that of course is a bunch of bullshit get out of here. That's why that's crazy talk now these guys were complete dirtbacks

They were huge pieces of shit for several months in late 1977 early 1978 the hillside Strangler

Terrorized the city of Los Angeles, California

The murder started in October of 77 more victims were found in November and December

Followed by a brief pause in the murders until February of 1978 when another victim was found in the trunk of her car
