John Linley Frazier

VICTIMS: 5


"Hallowe'en, 1970. Today World War III will begin, as bought to you by the People of the Free Universe. From this day forward, anyone and/or everyone or company of persons who misuses the natural environment or destroys same will suffer the penalty of death by the People of the Free Universe. I and my comrades from this day forth will fight until death or freedom against anyone who does not support natural life on this planet. Materialism must die, or Mankind will stop."
 

19 October, 1970 - Fireman responded to a call in Soquel, Santa Cruz, California. They first encountered a Rolls Royce parked across the driveway, blocking it. A note was found underneath one of the windscreen wipers(see above). Eventually arriving at the house they found five bodies floating in the swimming pool. The bodies were Dr. Victor Ohta, his wife Virginia, their two sons Taggart and Derrick (aged 11 and 12) and Dr. Ohta's secretary, Dorothy Cadwallader. The victims had each been shot in the back of the head execution-style, one bullet each except for the doctor who had taken four.

As there were groups of hippies living nearby it was immediately assumed that this was another 'Manson style' killing, and scared the shit out of the community. But soon the police narrowed the suspects down to one man - John Linley Frazier. He was seen driving the Ohta's car the day of the murder. The idiot also left his fingerprints on the Rolls Royce, a beer can at the murder scene and other objects in the house.

When asked why he did it Frazier said that the Ohta's were too materialistic and deserved to be snuffed.

He was found guity of the crimes and sentenced to die in the electric chair. He is still waiting, now serving life following California's abolishment of the death penalty.

A FUNNY BIT:
When Frazier started using LSD he had an apparent message from God. It seems Gods little message told him to save the earth. Soon after he quit his job, telling his boss that he refused to "contribute to the Death cycle of the planet." He also left his wife and moved into a hippie commune, where he scared the fuck out of his co-hippies.

 


MY OPINION

I've always liked this guy. I remember when I was a kid and I seen him on a documentary with Kemper and Mullins, I though he was just the craziest fucker ever. Since then I have always rated him alongside these guys. I think him shaving half his head actually is the main reason I like him, it's gotta be one of the best statements made, EVER.
