Amazing piece like you rarely see! Very significative piece once you understand it. Take time to read this well.
The receipient name GarLi Tsai has the same family name that his 4th victim had, Veronica Lian-Tsai. Being both Asian girls with same family name ,this clearly triggered something inside the Night Stalker. It made him draw on top of the stationnary a pair of eyes with the optical nerves as if they were pulled out!!! This is something he has done to at least one of his victims and is documented on March 27, 1985 ( Reference bellow) - if you wouldn’t know better you would think the drawing is of two odd figures walking or jogging together!
In this handwritten letter , Ramirez goes on explaining that he dosent talk about his case and seems relaxed and romantic even further in the letter, he is wishing his recipient all the best in life and on wishing her to graduate well. He talks about how he prefers the rainy days over the sunny ones.
He is asking her to come visit him before she goes back to her country of origin. He is asking her about her favorite drink and tells her we’re he got drunk the first time. Tells her how he was good at diving from high platforms. Asian girls are his most favorite by far.
You get to see really two sides : one that can really take her out and flirt with her when his real tought is to gouge her eyes out after violating her.
A very pretty stationary was used and a better handwritting as well perhaps to entice her for a visit, he is clearly serious about his penpal.
Going back in time when the Night Stalker Richard Ramirez was free.......before his arrest.
On March 17, 1985, Ramirez attacked 22-year-old Maria Hernandez outside her home in Rosemead , California shooting her in the face with a .22 caliber handgun after she pulled into her garage. She survived when the bullet ricocheted off the keys she held in her hands as she lifted them to protect herself. Inside the house was her roommate, Dayle Yoshie Okazaki, 34, who heard the gunshot and ducked behind a counter when she saw Ramirez enter the kitchen. When she raised her head he shot her once in the forehead, killing her.
Within an hour of the Rosemead home invasion, Ramirez pulled 30-year-old Tsai-Lian "Veronica" Yu out of her car in Monterey Park, California, shot her twice with a .22 caliber handgun, and fled. She was pronounced dead upon arrival at the hospital. The two murders, and attempted third, in a single day attracted extensive coverage from news media, who dubbed the curly-haired attacker with bulging eyes and wide-spaced, rotting teeth "The Walk-in Killer" and "The Valley Intruder."
On March 27, 1985, Ramirez entered a home that he had burglarized a year earlier in Whittier, California at approximately 2 a.m. and killed the sleeping Vincent Charles Zazzara, age 64, with a gunshot to his head from a .22 caliber handgun. Zazzara's wife Maxine Levenia Zazzara, age 44, was awakened by the gunshot, and Ramirez beat her and bound her hands while demanding to know where her valuables were. While he ransacked the room, Maxine escaped her bonds and retrieved a shotgun from under the bed, which was not loaded. The infuriated Ramirez shot her three times with the .22, then fetched a large carving knife from the kitchen. He mutilated her body by stabbing her several times, then gouged out her eyes and placed them in a jewelry box, which he left with. The autopsy determined that the mutilations were post-mortem. Ramirez left footprints from a pair of Avia sneakers in the flower beds, which the police photographed and cast. This was virtually the only evidence that the police had at the time. Bullets found at the scene were matched to those found at previous attacks, and the police realized a serial killer was at large. Vincent and Maxine's bodies were discovered by their son, Peter.
Veronica Lian Tsai was short and killed on March 17, 1985. Maxine Zazzara was attacked the same month on March 27, 1985, he gouges her eyes out and placed them in a jewelry box.
Insane letter with clear connection to two victims In March 1985. It will have the original envelope fully written in his hand and signed as well.
It’s in the top very significative piece created by Richard Ramirez perhaps without thinking about it twice and never knowing It will be put in auction one day! It’s aLso a very good example Showing of How arousal and excitement Are being fused with violence in the mind of one of the most notorious American Serial Killer.
I will also include a 4 x 6 mugshot and a Xerox color 8.5 x 11 photo print of Richard Ramirez as bonus inserts.
This will make a crazy conversation story and a great add to any serious collection of True Crime related collectibles. In the best we’ve seen in 19 years !
