Ramon Escobar, 50, received multiple life sentences after entering guilty pleas to murder with special circumstances and attempted murder. In a Zoom call hearing, he also pleaded guilty to the 2018 killings of his aunt and uncle in Houston, Texas. He received additional life sentences for those slayings but will serve them consecutively in California.
Prosecutors said Escobar bludgeoned victims with bolt cutters or a baseball bat as they lay sleeping on streets or the beach. All but one were homeless. Escobar had fled Texas after being questioned over the disappearance of his aunt and uncle, with whom he'd been staying. He drove 1,500 miles to California, arriving about a week before the attacks began there, authorities said.
