Author Michelle McNamara had unmasked Joseph James DeAngelo as the man she believed to have committed a series of unsolved killings, rapes and burglaries across California from 1976 to 1986 in her book "I'll Be Gone in the Dark: One Woman's Obsessive Search for the Golden State Killer", which Oswalt set out to complete following her death in 2016.
It was released earlier this year and is thought to have helped authorities re-examine the cold cases, leading to 72-year-old DeAngelo's arrest in Sacramento last week.
