Notorious Bakersfield Presents An Evening with Gil Carillo

Join Notorious Bakersfield for a special evening with retired Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department homicide detective Gil Carrillo, one of the lead investigators in the hunt for one of California’s most infamous serial killers—Richard Ramirez, the “Night Stalker.”

 

Carrillo played a pivotal role in the investigation that terrorized Southern California during the mid-1980s and ultimately led to Ramirez’s identification and capture.

 

Hear the story from someone who lived it as Carrillo takes you inside the Night Stalker investigation, sharing his firsthand experiences pursuing a seemingly unpredictable killer, the breakthroughs that changed the course of the case, and the extraordinary investigation that finally brought the manhunt to an end.

 

Carrillo and his work on the case were prominently featured in the acclaimed 2021 Netflix documentary series Night Stalker: The Hunt for a Serial Killer.

 

This special event is presented by Notorious Bakersfield to benefit the Give Them Their Names Back campaign.
