The Machete Killer on This Day in history

 

This Day in History: In Fairfield, California, a trial judge sentenced serial killer Juan Corona (the Machete Killer) to 25 life sentences, one for each of the 25 men whom he had been convicted of murdering on this day in 1973. Superior Judge Richard Patton added that the life sentences would "be served consecutively and not concurrently." Corona had been convicted of the crimes on January 18. Despite the sentence, California Adult Authority ruled the next day that Corona would be eligible for parole after only seven years rather than 175 years (7 years for each of the 25 life sentences) and that the consecutive sentences would be merged to run concurrently. An official commented, "Corona can serve only one life." Corona would spend the rest of his life in prison, dying at age 85 in 2019.
