On March 27, 2009, the California Department of Justice notified the LAPD that a CODIS DNA match had been made and the killer had been recognized in the murders of Ethel Sokoloff and Elizabeth McKeown, as properly as the victims in the instances being investigated by the Inglewood Police Department and the LASD. However, the same yr, Governor Earl Warren, who would grow to be the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court in a 12 months and a half, signed a regulation which eradicated the maximum penalty for sodomy ("not lower than one yr"), thus allowing for potential life imprisonment. However, the primary intercourse offender registry regulation was enacted in 1947, requiring all individuals convicted below California regulation for sexual crimes since 1944 to register as sex offenders. The offender had been recognized as John Floyd Thomas, a resident of Los Angeles. Los Angeles Times. May 26, 1975. p. Los Angeles Times. March 24, 1975. p.
