>> GOOD MORNING. I STAND HERE AS THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY FOR SAKAMOTO COUNTY
BUT I STAND HERE, INCREDIBLY
PROUD OF THIS TEAM.
I THINK THE DEFENSE TEAM FOR
YOUR PROFESSIONALISM, THE
ENTIRETY OF THIS LITIGATION.
THIS MOMENT, YOU HAVE
DEMONSTRATED DIGNITY AND GRACE,
THAT IS REMARKABLE.
IT HAS BEEN 16,000 470 DAYS
SINCE JOSEPH DEANGELO BEGAN HIS
REIGN OF TERROR.
44 YEARS, 11 MONTHS, 11 DAYS.
FOR THOSE IN SACRAMENTO, IT'S
BEEN 16,000 136 DAYS SINCE THE
FIRST RAPE OF PHYLLIS . 44
YEARS TWO MONTHS AND FOUR DAYS,
IT'S BEEN 42 YEARS, SINCE BRIAN
AND KATIE WERE TAKEN FROM THIS
WORLD.
IT'S BEEN 12,529 DAYS SINCE
JANEL, BEAUTIFUL LIGHT WAS
TAKEN.
34 YEARS, THREE MONTHS, 18 DAYS
A FEW, DAYS AFTER THE PLEA
AGREEMENT, PLEA AND YOU TRAIN
IT I HAD AN EMAIL FORWARDED TO
ME FROM A LOCAL JOURNALIST,
FROM A WOMAN FROM SACRAMENTO
NAMED PAM, IT COULD'VE BEEN
WRITTEN TODAY, IN MY BELIEF IT
ENCAPSULATES HOW I THINK
EVERYONE THAT HAS SAT IN THIS
COURTROOM, BUT THIS LAST WEEK
SAT IN THEIR HOMES, AND WATCHED
THIS TRANSPIRE FEELS.
I'M GOING TO QUOTE THAT.
I AM RUNNING OUT, I ALMOST PUT
D'ANGELO IN THE SUBJECT LINE
BUT I CANNOT GIVE HIM ANY MORE
HEADLINES.
I AM 71 YEARS OLD, THEIR
GENERATIONS NATIVE SACRAMENTO,
I LIVED THROUGH THE TERROR OF
THE EAST AREA . OVER THE PAST
40 YEARS, I HAVE READ EVERYTHING
REGARDING THIS CASE.
NO WINDOW IS EVER OPEN OR
UNLOCKED AT NIGHT.
EVER.
GATES ON EITHER SIDE OF OUR
HOME, ARE LOCKED ALWAYS.
LIGHTS, SURROUND OUR HOME.
MY CLOSE FRIENDS ALL FEEL THE
SAME.
RECENTLY, A CONTRACTOR IN MY
HOME QUESTION WHY MY STURDY
LARGE, NAILED PICTURE WINDOW
FACING OUT HADN'T BEEN
CONSIDERED FOR REPLACEMENT WITH
QUOTE NICE SLIDERS, WITH
SCREENS TO OPEN OUT.
I LOOKED AT THE FORTYSOMETHING
STERNLY, I SAID MY ALWAYS READY
ANSWER.
THREE WORDS, EAST AREA . HE
MADE SOME COMMENT ABOUT HOW, HE
HAD HEARD SOMETHING ABOUT HIM
BUT, HE HAD BEEN ARRESTED.
YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND, I LIVED
IT IT WILL NEVER GO AWAY.
WHY WAS ON A VICTIM I WAS A
VICTIM.
ON MONDAY, JUNE 29th, I SAT IN
FRONT OF MY TV, AND I CRY.
I CRIED FOR THE VICTIMS, I CRY
FOR THE FAMILIES, THE HORROR,
THE TERROR OF WHAT THOSE WHO
DIED IN THEIR FINAL MOMENTS, AS
A PERSON OF FAITH, I PUT MY
FAITH IN GOD'S LOVE, THAT HE
IMMEDIATELY COVER THOSE VICTIMS
IN PEACE AND IN LOVE.
I HAVE TO BELIEVE THAT IN ORDER
TO PUT MY FOOT FORWARD, EVERY
DAY.
PAM FOLLOWED UP WITH A NOTE TO
ME JUST A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO.
MY HEART, MY BEING, CONTINUES
TO WEEP, FOR THOSE VICTIMS.
FOR THE LAST WEEK OUR HEARTS
AND OUR BEINGS HAVE WEPT FOR
EACH OF HIS VICTIMS, AND THEIR
FAMILIES.
THEIR WORDS AND THEIR STORIES
WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN.
AS DESCRIBED BY SO MANY, OF THE
MURDER VICTIM FAMILIES, AND THE
CRIME VICTIMS OUR SOCIETY, HAS
BEEN DEPRIVED OF AN EXCEPTIONAL
AND EXTRAORDINARY PEOPLE.
THESE RAPE AND THESE MURDERS
IN THE WORDS OF OUR VICTIMS,
HAVE CUT ACROSS FAMILIES,
FRIENDS, GENERATIONS AND ENTIRE
COMMUNITIES.
IN THE WORDS OF BRIAN SANCHEZ,
OVERWHELMING GRIEF IS AN
UNDERSTATEMENT.
IN TRUE JUSTICE IS AN
OVERSTATEMENT.
PERSONALLY, I HAVE FAITH THAT
THEIR SOULS, HAVE BEEN COVERED
IN PEACE.
MY GREATEST HOPE, FOR ALL OF
THESE VICTIMS AND THEIR
FAMILIES, PERHAPS IS BEST PUT
IN THEIR OWN WORDS, AS WE HEARD
THIS WEEK.
THE GREATEST REVENGE, IS TO
LIVE YOUR LIVES, PAGER CHILDREN
AND YOUR GRANDCHILDREN'S ROOMS,
AGAIN WITH HEARTS AND RAINBOWS.
WATER SKI AGAIN.
KNOW THAT THE MONSTER OF YOUR
CHILDHOOD, OR YOUR YOUNGER
YEARS IS GONE FOREVER, WILL DIE
ALONE IN THE DARKNESS.
TWO THE DEFENDANT, OR IS MR.
WOOD TUNE CULT OF THE
CONTRACTOR THERE IS HONESTLY
LITTLE LEFT TO SAY.
YOUR NAME, WILL FADE FROM THE
HEADLINES, BUT DESPITE THAT
FATE, NO ONE THING UNTIL THE
DAY YOU LEAVE THIS EARTH, THIS
INCREDIBLE TEAM TEAM THAT HAS
WORKED FOR DECADES, TO FIND YOU,
TO ARREST YOU, PROSECUTE YOU,
TO CONVICT YOU, WILL NOT JUST
PROMISE YOU BUT WILL ENSURE
THAT YOU WILL NEVER SUCCEED AT
DECEIVING OR MANIPULATING THE
DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS AND
REHABILITATION INTO BELIEVING
THAT YOU ARE SOME PEOPLE, INEPT
OLD MAN, WHO SOMEHOW DESERVES
BETTER HOUSING, TREATMENT, OR
PRIVILEGE.
LESLIE YOUR HONOR, AND PERHAPS
[ CHEERING ] PERHAPS, WHAT I
THINK SOME OF THE MOST POWERFUL
WORDS WE HEARD THIS WEEK FROM,
CHRIS ANDRETTI, MR. D'ANGELO,
THERE IS NO PRAYER STRONG
ENOUGH.
TO SAVE YOU.
>> THANK YOU COUNSEL.
