Charles Ng, with his buddy Leonard Lake, tortured, raped and murdered an unknown number of men, women and children at Lake’s Wilseyville, California rural home that had been equipped with a fortified bunker which apparently was used solely as a holding cell for their victims. Law enforcement authorities believe that up to twenty-five people were murdered by the pair, but only officially recovered twelve bodies. Detectives found videotapes of these two whackos torturing and sexually abusing their victims among the evidence found on the property. In true “he-man” fashion, Ng ran away to Canada to avoid prosecution, and attempted to delay his trial proceedings when he was finally extradited back to the U.S. Convicted of eleven murders in 1999, he now awaits execution.
The List of Known Victims:
- Kathleen Allen and her boyfriend, Michael Carroll.
Investigators believe that Kathleen was lured to the cabin when Lake told her that Michael had been shot. Kathleen was one of the two women who appeared on the video as Lake and Ng mentally and physically tortured her, eventually raping and killing her. Michael was a suspected drug dealer who at one time was a cellmate of Ng’s at Leavenworth.- Brenda O’Connor, Lonnie Bond and baby Lonnie Jr.
Brenda and her common law husband, Lonnie, were next door neighbors of Leornard Lake. Brenda was shown on the video begging for knowledge of her baby’s welfare while the two taunted her and threatened her and the life of her baby if she failed to cooperate with their sexual demands. It is believed that at the time the video was made, Lonnie and Lonnie Jr. had already been killed.- Harvey Dubs, Deborah Dubs and baby Sean Dubs.
It is believed that the family was murdered after Lake answered an advertisement for camera equipment that Harvey was selling.- Robin Scott Stapley
- Randy Johnson
- Charles “The Fat Man” Gunnar - Leonard Lake’s best man.
- Donald Lake - Leonard’s brother.
- Paul Cosner - the owner of the Honda.
Other pieces of bone found on the property indicated that over 25 other people were killed by Lake and Ng. Investigators suspect that many were homeless and recruited to the property to help build the bunker, then killed.
Charles Ng sits on death row at San Quentin prison in California. He advertises himself online as ‘a dolphin caught inside a tuna net.’ He continues to appeal his death sentence and it may take several years for his sentence to be carried out.
