Michael Gargiulo Biography

Michael Gargiulo is one of the most popular and richest Serial Killer who was born on February 15, 1976 in Northfield Township, Illinois, United States. Michael Thomas Gargiulo, born February 15, 1976, is an American serial killer. In the 1990s, he moved to Southern California and was nicknamed “Hollywood Ripper”.

Gargiulo was taken into custody by Santa Monica Police Department June 6, 2008. Gargiulo was charged by the Santa Monica Police Department with the first-degree murder in the death of Tricia Pacaccio on July 7, 2011. Gargiulo was charged with the murders of two California women and the Pacaccio crime in Chicago. However, police have not connected him to any other murders. Gargiulo told Los Angeles County Jail authorities that 10 women had been killed and that his DNA was not present, which led investigators to suspect that there may be more victims.

Media in Los Angeles dubbed Gargiulo the “Hollywood Ripper” as well as the “Chiller Killer.” Gargiulo was held at Los Angeles County Jail while awaiting a capital murder trial. A pre-trial hearing was held June 9, 2017, in Los Angeles Superior Court with his trial scheduled to begin in October 2017. After delays, his trial began on May 2, 2019. In May 2019, actor Ashton Kutcher testified about the crimes.

On August 15, 2019, Gargiulo was convicted on all counts. The penalty phase of his California trial started on October 7, 2019. He faces either a death sentence or life in prison without the possibility of parole. Once his sentencing is finished he will be extradited back to Illinois to face the first-degree murder charge relating to Tricia Pacaccio. If convicted in Illinois, he will face a sentence of 25 years to life. On October 18, 2019, a jury recommended the death penalty for Michael Gargiulo after several hours of deliberation.

Gargiulo attacked his neighbor in El Monte, California, on December 1, 2005. She was stabbed 17 more times.
