The first known victim was Deborah Jackson. She was 29 when she was found with three bullet wounds to the chest. She was a cocktail waitress, who had left her friend's apartment and was walking to the bus stop when she disappeared.
Just over a year later, another victim, Henrietta Wright was found a few miles away from Jackson's body. Like the other women, she had been sexually assaulted and shot.
On August 14 1986, another body was found. Thomas Steele 36 who had once worked as a pimp, and who was in town from San Diego visiting family was found in the middle of an intersection.
Bernita Sparks, 23, had run out to grab some cigarettes on April 15 1987 and never came home. She was found in the dumpster on Western Avenue the next day.
Alicia "Monique" Alexander18 had been making a run to the store for her dad, she never returned and was found a few days later, she had been sexually abused and shot.
Mary Lowe 26 had gone out on Halloween night in 1987 to the Love Trap Bar. Walking to or from her destination at some point the killer picked her up. She was found the next day in an alleyway on Western Avenue.
One victim seemed to signal that the killer was trying to communicate something to or by his victims: Lachrica Jefferson's body was left in an alley, her faced covered with a napkin. The word "AIDS" was scrawled ominously on the napkin.
Enietra Margette was the only survivor. Lonnie pulled up beside her when she was on the way to the shops and then going onto a party. He eventually persuaded her to get into the car and he drove her to the party where she invited him in. His mood changed and he shot her. She blacked out and when she woke up Lonnie was on top of her raping her whilst talking photographs.
