Golden State Killer Victims
It's been almost two years since authorities charged then 72-year-old former police officer Joseph DeAngelo with eight counts of first-degree murder. The crimes were connected to the decades-long investigation of the Golden State Killer. For more than 10 years, GSK committed at least 50 rapes, 13 murders and over 100 burglaries all over California. While the serial rapist's first victims were solely women and girls, within a year the attacks focused on couples but while the trauma of the female victims continues to be retold today...little is said about the male victims.

Airbnb Regulations
Los Angeles only just started enforcing its regulations on Airbnb and other home-sharing sites a handful of weeks ago. The actions came pretty late in the game when many other cities in California and around the country started to crackdown years ago. But now, some of those rules might change already.

Voices of Reason Choir
The holidays are a time when you're encountering religious music everywhere. Carollers are caroling, "Silent Night' follows you through the aisles of the grocery store and religious choirs are dusting off their sleigh bells. But there's one choir in L.A. that's singing a different kind of tune… contributor Natalie Chudnovsky takes you there.
