Michael Gargiulo’s trial began with a prosecutor outlining the California cases for jurors, calling the crimes “the methodical and systematic slaughter of women.”
LOS ANGELES — Opening statements began Thursday in the Los Angeles murder trial of an air conditioning repairman charged with the stabbing deaths of two women and a suburban Chicago teenager for sexual gratification.
Gargiulo was arrested in 2008 after DNA evidence linked him to the killings. He was subsequently separately charged with killing a 17-year-old Glenview, Illinois, girl whose father found her fatally stabbed on their family’s doorstep, house key still in hand.Akemon detailed how he said Gargiulo would stalk his victims before striking.
Gargiulo’s trial is expected to take six months. Kutcher is among the possible witnesses who could be called to testify.
