Inside Stockton's search for a serial killer: 'This person's on a mission'
Police have linked an April 2021 Oakland shooting to five homicides in Stockton this year. Five of the six victims who died are Latino men, police said.
Lopez, 54, was found shot to death just before 2 a.m. Sept. 27 in the 900 block of Porter Avenue. His death came just a few days before police acknowledged during a news conference “a series of killings that are connected.” “They’re staying in groups and then spreading the word among themselves that this is what they have to do,” he said. “They’re not one-on-one, a person here and there; they are grouped in pretty close together now.”
Standing near the San Joaquin River waterfront in downtown Stockton, Danielle Richae rested alongside a man who identified himself only as Javier.Downtown, where many of Stockton’s civic buildings are located, did not appear to be a hunting ground for the killer, but many homeless people congregate in nearby parks and around the water.
