I’LL BE GONE IN THE DARK returns with a special episode directed by Elizabeth Wolff (HBO’s “I’ll Be Gone in the Dark<\/em>“) and executive produced by Liz Garbus (HBO’s “I’ll Be Gone in the Dark<\/em>,” “Who Killed Garrett Phillips?<\/em>” and “Nothing Left Unsaid: Gloria Vanderbilt & Anderson Cooper<\/em>). The critically acclaimed six-part documentary series based on the best-selling book of the same name debuted in June 2020 and explores writer Michelle McNamara’s investigation into the dark world of the violent predator she dubbed “The Golden State Killer.” This special episode debuts MONDAY, JUNE 21 (10:00-11:00PM ET\/PT) on HBO and will be available to stream on HBO Max.<\/p>\n

In the summer of 2020, former police officer Joseph James DeAngelo, also known as the Golden State Killer, was sentenced to life in prison for the 50 home-invasion rapes and 13 murders he committed during his reign of terror in the 1970s and ’80s in California. Many of the survivors and victim’s family members featured in the series reconvened for an emotional public sentencing hearing in August 2020, where they were given the opportunity to speak about their long-held pain and anger through victim impact statements, facing their attacker directly for the first time and bringing a sense of justice and resolution to the case.<\/p>
