'SERIAL PREDATOR' Release of 'pillowcase rapist' in California sparks outrage
Oct 31st 2013, 10:48

Residents of a Southern California community are protesting a judge's decision to allow an admitted serial rapist who attacked 38 women to live in their neighborhood when he's from prison.

A judge in Santa Clara County announced last week that serial rapist Christopher Hubbart potentially could live in the Antelope Valley community of Lake Los Angeles upon his release, which could take place as early as December.

The 62-year-old Hubbart has admitted raping 38 women in California between 1971 and 1982, often placing pillowcases over the heads of his victims to quiet their screams

District Attorney Jackie Lacey said in a statement that her office will work with law enforcement to ensure Hubbart is closely monitored. A formal hearing on the matter has been scheduled for December.

In August, the California Supreme Court denied Los Angeles County's appeal to stop his release and his specific relocation to Los Angeles County, which could occur by December.

"He is a serial predator who is not suitable to be living in a civilized society walking the streets," Los Angeles County Supervisor Mike Antonovich told KABC.com, adding that he is worried Hubbart strike again even with the required ankle monitor.

A landlord in Lake Los Angeles has agreed to rent a home to Hubbart that complies with a state law prohibiting sex offenders released from prison from living within 2,000 feet of parks and schools, KCAL-TV reported.

Residents have staged a protest outside of Hubbart's proposed home and have circulated a petition challenging his possible release into the community.

"How am I supposed to be able to go into my bedroom and lay down at night and go to sleep, knowing that he could come in?" Nichole Stone told KCAL-TV. "There are people talking around town about how they want to burn the house down with him inside of it,"

Kayla Irwin, whose family lives across the street from the proposed home, told the station she's considering opening a daycare facility so that, by law, Hubbart would not be able to move in.

"Let's go through with it because then he can't live here if we're going to do a daycare," she said.

Lake Los Angeles is adjacent to Palmdale.
