About the episode

In August 1985, a single fingerprint gave police the name they had been searching for: Richard Ramirez. In this episode of Night Watch, Katie Ring concludes our three-part deep dive as the Night Stalker’s anonymity collapses and the manhunt reaches its breaking point. From a newspaper photo that exposed his face, to the citizens of Boyle Heights who chased him down, we examine how months of terror finally came to an end — and how collaboration between detectives ultimately closed in on one of California’s most feared killers.
