Brian Maggiore, 20, and his wife Katie were shot and killed on February 2, 1978, in Rancho Cordova while out for an evening walk with their dog. Brian was shot first; Katie tried to flee but was chased down and also fatally shot. The double killing shocked the community and remained unsolved for decades.

Investigators later linked the Maggiore murders to the serial offender known as the East Area Rapist or Golden State Killer after patterns in modus operandi and other evidence were found to align with his crimes. In 2018 Joseph James DeAngelo, a former police officer, was arrested and charged in connection with numerous crimes attributed to that offender, including the Maggiore killings, following advances in DNA technology and genetic genealogy.

Was anyone in Rancho Cordova active in that neighborhood on the night of February 2, 1978, who might remember something that helps clarify what happened?
