DNA evidence from a discarded slice of pizza led LAPD detectives to arrest Lonnie David Franklin Jr., the alleged prostitute-murdering serial killer known as the "Grim Sleeper." The man, described by neighbors as a helpful, friendly handyman, is suspected of killing at least 10 women, mostly in the 1980's, but as recently as 2003. There is not much detail on how LA Weekly came up with the nickname the "Grim Sleeper," but I imagine it went like this:
LA Weekly employee 1: "What should we call this guy?"
LA Weekly employee 2: "How about the 'Grim Reaper?'"
LA Weekly employee 1: "Why are you so stupid?"
LA Weekly employee 2: "Ok. How about the 'Grim Sleeper?'"
LA Weekly employee 1: "Shut up. Blossom is on."
