Gary Alan Walker

Gary Alan Walker (September 25, 1953 – January 13, 2000), also known as The Roaming Rapist, was an American serial killer and rapist. Within a 19-day span in May 1984, Walker committed five murders in Oklahoma. His crime spree began on May 7, 1984, when he robbed and murdered 63-year-old Eddie Cash after Cash picked him up while hitchhiking and invited him home. The remaining four victims were female; some of these women were also tortured, raped or kidnapped before their deaths.

Walker was arrested on June 2, 1984, and charged with multiple counts of first-degree murder. He was ultimately convicted and sentenced to multiple life sentences for the murders of his female victims, plus the death penalty for the murder of Cash. Walker was eventually executed by lethal injection on January 13, 2000.
