FROM FOX NEWS: One of California’s most notorious killers is back in the spotlight as a new documentary revisits his crimes and uncovers even darker secrets.
Joseph Naso, the former photographer convicted in 2013 of killing four women, is now claiming he actually killed 26 women. The bombshell confession comes from a fellow death row inmate, William Noguera, who spent more than a decade building trust with Naso inside California’s infamous San Quentin State Prison.
The chilling revelations are featured in a new Oxygen documentary, “Death Row Confidential: Secrets of a Serial Killer,” premiering Sept. 13.
Naso, a father, Little League coach, and school photographer by day, shocked the country with his double life as a sadistic killer. Investigators found photographs of dead women and a “hit list” with ten cryptic descriptions of female victims.
Despite a death sentence, Naso maintained his innocence.
Noguera recalled Naso’s admission of killing 10 women, not 26, and disturbing details like a coin collection with 26 gold heads, which he claimed represented his trophies.
“He’s guilty of more than anyone knows,” Noguera said of the convicted killer. “He told me everything, and I wrote all of it down.”
Noguera has compiled a 300-page dossier with clues, locations, and partial confessions. While Naso didn’t name his victims, his stories indicated that he was responsible for other crimes.
Noguera convinced him to write a confession, and passed the files to retired FBI task force investigator Ken Mains, who took on the case pro bono.
Detectives Mains and Noguera linked Naso to several cold cases.
Naso, known as “Alphabet Killer,” was found guilty in 2013 of murdering four women whose first and last names began with the same letter: Roxene Roggasch, Carmen Colon, Pamela Parsons, and Tracy Tafoya. The crimes took place between 1977 and 1994.
A diary from the 1950’s, detailing more than 100 sexual assaults involving underage girls, was also discovered. Authorities are now re-examining unsolved cases.
