Female victims of homicide often know their killers

The victims vary in age. They were killed in upscale Stevenson Ranch and on the most dangerous streets of South L.A. The specifics may differ, but the homicides of women in Los Angeles County this year take on a deadly rhythm.

On Jan. 14, Mary Matsumoto, 72, was found shot to death in her San Pedro bedroom. Her husband has been charged with murder.

On Feb. 1, Yi-Tung Weng, 48, was tortured and stabbed to death in a downtown apartment. Her son has been charged with capital murder.

On March 5, Tanaya Shanette Goins, 32, was shot to death in her San Gabriel apartment. Her brother has been charged with murder.

On March 24, Klaudia Alas, 32, was found stabbed to death in a black Dodge truck in Van Nuys. Her boyfriend has been charged with murder.

A day later, Lakeisha Lynall, 32, was found shot to death in an alley in Westmont. Victor Terrazas, her boyfriend of about four years, was killed by deputies nearby. He was the only suspect in the slaying.

On April 12, Lucille Wills, 74, was found stabbed to death in a Carson bedroom. Her husband of more than 50 years was dead in the living room from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

This year, 19 women have been killed in L.A. County, according to coroner's records. In the majority of cases where the suspect has been identified, the victim knew the assailant.
