Killer of San Diego teens: 'I am the most dangerous type of sexual predator'
Los Angeles Times
November 5, 2010
"I am the type that needs to be locked up forever," John Albert Gardner III, 31, told CBS News in an interview to be broadcast Saturday on "48 Hours".
Gardner pleaded guilty in April to strangling King during a rape attempt and stabbing Dubois during a rape attempt.
He also admitted attacking another female jogger, who escaped.
In the CBS interview, Gardner describes in detail his encounter with Dubois.
"I passed her driving down the street. And that's the first time I saw her. I pulled up next to her with the windows down on the car. I had the knife out and visible. And told her that I also had a gun. And to get in the car or it was going to be a lot worse," according to an excerpt released by CBS News. |
"She actually looked at me in kinda shock and disbelief. And asked me if I was kidding. And I raised my voice and yelled, 'No, get the 'F' in the car.' I drove to the remote area. On driving I put the music on. She wanted to hear music so that she could pretend she wasn't there."
The plea bargain was meant to spare him from the death penalty. Under the agreement, Gardner will be returned to prison for life without the possibility of parole.
