cops arrest man over links to 9 slayings

A Milwaukee man that has been arrested for the slayings of nine women since 1986 has been charged with two counts of homicide with more charges expected to follow later this week.
Walter E. Ellis, 49, was taken into custody after a struggle at a motel on Saturday, days after police served a search warrant to obtain a DNA sample

Police said Ellis' DNA was found on the bodies of nine women who were killed between 1986 and 2007 on Milwaukee’s north side. Investigators believe eight of the women were prostitutes and one was a runaway. They ranged in age from 16 to 41. Each of the homicide charges carries a maximum penalty of life in prison.

I think it’s a good thing they caught this guy. I seen on the news the man made a comment that he was cleaning up the streets. Just seeing this makes you realize that there are really crazy people out there and you should take a little more precaution sometimes especially when you live in a big college state like us.
