    Jack Gus Farnam - California Death Row




    Facts of the Crime:

    Farnam was convicted of killing 55-year-old Lillian Mar in her home near Elysian Park on November 19, 1982, after robbing and raping her. Both of his parents were mentally retarded and incapable of caring for Farnam, who as a child would steal food by crawling into homes through the doggy door. According to a psychiatrist's report, Farnam scored "between 75 and 80" on an IQ test. He had been homeless off and on since age 16. Farnam turned 18 a month before the murder.

    Farnam was sentenced to death in Los Angeles County on June 15, 1989.
