- Description:
- View from the road looking east along chicken coops where the three Northcott murder victims' graves were found. Gordon Stewart Northcott's environment was this lonely chicken ranch in Riverside County. He had dreamed of being a pianist and winning plaudits of concert crowds. Instead, his job was tending chickens and his associates few outside of his parents. He had too much time alone for thoughts of introspection, some investigators believe. So he began to lure boys to the ranch and turned it into a "murder farm" of horrors, according to his confession.
