2. Sexual Assault on Joseph F.
In March 1970, 13-year-old Joseph F. ran away from his Westminster home on his bicycle. He rode his bicycle up and down the boardwalk in Huntington Beach, where he encountered defendant. He asked defendant for a cigarette, which defendant gave him. After learning Joseph was a runaway, defendant offered to let him stay at his apartment. Joseph hid his bicycle and accompanied defendant on his motorcycle to defendant's apartment in Long Beach.
There, defendant gave Joseph some red capsules. Joseph swallowed four capsules initially and four more a short time later, washing them down with wine. Joseph felt drowsy and started to black out. Defendant asked Joseph if he had ever had sex with a man before and showed him photographs of men having sex with one another. Defendant was depicted in some of the photographs. Defendant began masturbating in front of Joseph and asked him to take off his clothes. Joseph was unable to resist because of the pills and alcohol he had ingested. Defendant forced Joseph to orally copulate him, slapped him and sodomized him twice, causing him pain.
Afterward, defendant said something about going to work and left the apartment. Joseph then left the apartment and went to a bar across the street, narrowly missing getting hit by a car. Someone called an ambulance, and Joseph was taken to a hospital, where his stomach was pumped. His face was bruised and his rectum was sore. Joseph never revealed to anyone that defendant had sexually assaulted him until he was interviewed by detectives in August 1983.
At the time of trial, Joseph was in custody on a parole violation. Joseph acknowledged that after telling detectives about the incident he asked for money, a vehicle and a loan, but testified he did not receive anything from any law enforcement agency.
In defense, Joseph's mother acknowledged she had told personnel at her son's school and others that Joseph was a pathological liar.
3. Murder of Michael O'Fallon
In July 1980, Michael O'Fallon left his home in Golden, Colorado, a suburb of Denver, and hitchhiked to Canada. O'Fallon, then 17 years old, stood five feet seven inches tall and weighed 135 pounds. When he left on his trip, O'Fallon took a camera with his mother's initials, "MJO," scratched on the front.
About 12:10 a.m. on July 17, 1980, a passing motorist encountered O'Fallon hitchhiking on Interstate 5 in Oregon. About 5:00 a.m. that day, O'Fallon's body was found at the Talbot Road interchange with Interstate 5, some 10 miles south of Salem, Oregon. There were no clothes or identification with the body. The cause of death was ligature strangulation. A ligature consisting of a red shoelace bound O'Fallon's wrists together, while his ankles were bound by another lace. A white ligature connected the other two ligatures with O'Fallon's scrotum. Blood and fecal material were visible from a laceration to the anus. O'Fallon's blood contained alcohol (0.04 percent) and diazepam.
On a number of occasions defendant's employer, Lear Siegler Corporation (Lear-Siegler), sent him to its Peerless Division in Tualitin, Oregon, to help install a computer system. Defendant worked at that location between July 16 and July 18, 1980, and rented a car for that period at the Portland airport. Defendant returned the rental car to the airport.
