Just what is going on with the Grim Sleeper serial killer? Well the killer, who police say murdered various individuals from 1985 to 2007, was dubbed the Grim Sleeper because he seemed to take a break between homicides, police said – why not call him the grim kit kat? God, sorry. The grim sleeper is wanted in 11 deaths and another homicide attempt. The cops this week released an emergency call recorded just after a killing in 1987, in the hope of producing any new clues as to who the sleeper is. They have the Grim Sleeper’s DNA, and a $500,000 reward has been offered if the grim sleeper is found.

The call went thus – “Yes … I’d like to report a murder, the guy that dropped her off was driving a white and blue Dodge van. He threw her out. … He threw a gas tank on top of her. All that you can see sticking out is her feet.” He may be lazy, but the grim sleeper may be more inventive than we guess. The authorities found the scene just as the caller described, but they are still searching for the caller and members of the church that owned the van – well it can’t be easy now can it.
