Death Angels

Unread post by shadow » April 27th, 2005, 4:36 pm

Zebra Killings (1973-1974) involved 5 African-American ex-convicts who were adherents to the Black Muslim ideology that all white people were "devils" that needed to be exterminated. They left a known total of 15 men, women, and children dead throughout California, and another 8 victims paralysed for life. They belonged to an elite group of assassins known as the "Death Angels", for which the qualification to join was the murder of a specific number of white people. Police suspected they may have been responsible for as many as 135 murders, and the ensuing panic resulted in Gestapo-like police tactics as authorities searched and storm-trooped several African-American communities in California. The trial in 1975 was, at the time, the longest in California legal history, and 4 of the defendants received life sentences.

Interesting! I did not know that. Good info. I have the book Zebra I would reccomend it even if it was written with what in my opinion seems like a lot of negative bias from the author. He seemed to have a great deal of hate for his subjects and Black Muslims in general. Another good source of info on them is crimelibrary.com heres the link
