Ridgway sentenced to life in prison without chance of parole
By Gene Johnson
The Associated Press
Gary Ridgway, the Green River Killer who terrorized Seattle in the early 1980s, tearfully apologized for his crimes today, but the judge said he found little to believe in the remorse as he sentenced him to life in prison without the chance of release.
"I'm sorry for killing all those young ladies," said Ridgway, who lowered his head and cried. "I have tried to remember as much as I could to help the detectives find and recover the ladies. I'm sorry for the scare I put into the community."
"I have tried for a long time to keep from killing any ladies," Ridgway said. "I'm very sorry for the ladies that were not found. May they rest in peace. They need a better place than where I gave them. I'm sorry for killing these ladies. They had their whole lives ahead of them. I'm sorry for causing so much pain to so many families."
After blistering Ridgway for his lack of compassion and the horror he brought to his victims, their families and the community, King County Superior Court Judge Richard Jones ordered Ridgway to serve 48 consecutive life sentences.
Prosecutors and defense attorneys agreed to spare Ridgway the death penalty in exchange for his helping investigators find four previously undiscovered sets of remains and confessing to the murders, the most recent in 1998. He pleaded guilty to the 48 murders Nov. 5.
In his confession, Ridgway, 54, said he killed because he hated prostitutes and didn't want to pay them for sex; that he dumped their bodies in the Green River and other inconspicuous parts of King County; that he took pleasure in keeping the secret of where they were hidden; and that he killed so many women he had a hard time keeping them straight.
"The time has come for the final chapter of your reign of terror in our community," Jones said. "It is now time for our community to have peace from the Green River murders."
After a moment of silence for the victims, Jones offered words of comfort to the their families then turned to Ridgway, convicted of the most murders in U.S. history.
"The remarkable thing about you is your remarkable Teflon-coated emotions and complete absence of compassion for the young women you murdered," Jones said.
