COMPETENCE TRIAL STARTS FOR ALLEGED SLASHER

Accused multiple murderer Phillip Carl Jablonski hunched over the
defendant table in a Redwood City courtroom yesterday and
silently stared at nothing as his attorney told a jury he is
mentally incapable of standing trial. A jury of eight women and
four men will decide whether Jablonski should proceed to trial or
be treated at a state mental hospital.
Jablonski, 47, is charged with the April 1991 mutilation slayings
of four women, including his wife and her mother in Burlingame,
while on parole for killing his third wife. He could face the
death penalty if convicted. If he is found competent to stand
trial, a different jury will decide whether he is guilty of the
charges.
Jablonski has been diagnosed with schizophrenia, a mental
disorder that causes him to hear voices, said Jeff Boyarsky, his
court-appointed attorney. ``He is not connected to reality,''
Boyarsky said. ``It is not enough to just sit there.''
But according to prosecutor Martin Murray, Jablonski's detached
stares and occasional wide-eyed glances around the courtroom are
part of a carefully planned act to manipulate the system and
evade justice. Jablonski is charged with killing his wife, Carol
Spadoni Jablonski, 47, and her mother, Eva Inge Peterson, 72, in
their Burlingame home on April 23, 1991.
The women were shot and sexually mutilated. Carol Spadoni
married Jablonski on June 16, 1982, while he was serving a prison
sentence for the 1979 murder of his third wife, Melinda Kimball.
Jablonski also is charged with killing Fathyma Vann, 38, in
Indio, about 25 miles from Palm Springs, the day before the
double-murder. Vann was found shot and sexually mutilated in the
desert with ``I love Jesus'' carved in her back.
Jablonski is also charged with killing Margie Rogers, 58, during
a $158 robbery in Grand County, Utah, on April 27, 1991. He was
captured the next day at a rest stop in Kansas.

SUIT AGAINST HOSPITAL OFFICIALS TO OPEN - FREED KILLER OF 3
SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE, MONDAY April 25, 1988 by Bill Wallace,
Chronicle Staff Writer Page number A2
Napa State Hospital officials negligently released a mental
patient who later killed the sheriff of Humboldt County and two
other men, according to a lawsuit scheduled to begin trial in
Eureka today.
The suit, which asks unspecified damages, was filed on behalf of
the three victims' widows after the November 1982 shooting. It
alleges that officials at Napa State Hospital released Clarence
McCutcheon even though they considered him a violent and
dangerous psychopath.
McCutcheon was a diagnosed paranoid schizophrenic with a long
history of violent acts and threats. He was killed by police on
Nov. 29, 1982, after he gunned down his three victims.
Hospital Director At the time, the director of Napa State
Hospital was Dr. Michael O'Connor, the current state director of
mental health. The suit accuses O'Connor and other officials of
ignoring state laws that allow psychiatric officials to confine
dangerous mental patients up to 90 days if they may injure
themselves or others.
O'Connor and other state officials deny the allegations. Killed
in the murderous rampage were Gene Cox, sheriff of Humboldt
County for 16 years; Jack Alton, Cox's father-in-law, and Claire
Montgomery, a resident of the trailer park where the shooting
took place. Plaintiffs in the suit are Shirley Cox, Doris
Montgomery and Hannah Alton.
Jury selection in the case is scheduled to begin today. The
lawsuit stems from a series of incidents that began in Eureka in
October 1982.
McCutcheon, a 50-year-old Santa Monica man, was sent to Napa
after destroying the signs in a Eureka campground and threatening
to kill a neighbor who asked him to stop.
Previous Arrest
His medical and psychiatric records show that he had previously
been arrested by federal officials for making a bomb threat on an
airliner. He had spent a year in a federal mental facility in
Springfield, Mo., after he was found incompetent to stand trial
on the bomb-threat charges. While in custody in Eureka,
McCutcheon fought with mental health technicians and police,
threatened to kill a doctor who examined him and had to be
restrained to prevent him from attacking workers at the county
crisis intervention center, according to his records.
His medical records from the center describe him as "easily
agitated, angry, threatening," and ordered his isolation from
others "given recent evidence of unpredictability and threats of
violence." "This patient is undoubtedly manic," said a
psychiatric evaluation prepared in Eureka by Dr. William Patrick
Murphy. "I believe him to be dangerous and capable of anything."
After his transfer to Napa, McCutcheon continued to behave in a
bizarre and threatening manner. Napa medical records prepared
shortly after his admission describe him as "quite hostile and
angry on approach." "He has recently been combative to staff."
Priest Claim During a Nov. 3, 1982, Napa Superior Court hearing
on whether he should remain in custody, McCutcheon, who had no
formal religious affiliation, described himself as a Roman
Catholic priest who had been attacked in Santa Monica by a witch
and who was being oppressed by followers of Satan. He accused the
judge of being in collusion with the CIA, and objected to being
represented by a female public defender because "it's not
appropriate for a woman to represent a Roman Catholic priest."
Napa psychiatrist Dr. John Baker told the court that McCutcheon
was severely delusional, and obsessed with the notion that the
CIA was plotting against him. "On the basis of the information I
received, I feel he is a danger to others," Baker told the court.

SLASHER SUSPECT ARRESTED IN ATTACKS ON S.F.'S POOR
San Francisco Chronicle, WEDNESDAY, November 11, 1998

San Francisco - The man arrested yesterday in the throat-slashing
attacks on San Francisco's homeless allegedly told police he is a
2,000-year-old vampire who uses the blood of his victims to
scrawl an Asian-language character for death.
Joshua Rudiger, 21, of Oakland, was on probation for wounding a
former friend with a bow and arrow and had been charged last year
with stabbing a homeless man. He was arrested early yesterday
after a fourth victim in the monthlong string of slashing
assaults was attacked in Chinatown.
Police said they believe Rudiger killed 48-year-old Shirley
Dillahunty on October 29 in the doorway where she slept on 18th
Street in the Mission District. They also suspect he slashed the
throats of two homeless men in a Nob Hill alley October 16. Both
men survived. "We have physical evidence tying four of these
attacks together," said Deputy Chief Richard Holder. At three
crime scenes, he said, the attacker left behind "an Asian
character or symbol."
Sources said the character was the word "death" and that Rudiger
claimed to have written it in blood. Rudiger has another Asian
character tattooed across his chest that refers to childhood or
youth, police say. Holder said Rudiger had "admitted some guilt
to the four incidents," but added, "We need to corroborate his
statements."
One claim was particularly gruesome, said a source close to the
investigation. "He said he sucks the blood of the victims after
he has cut their throats."
Rudiger was booked on suspicion of murder and assault and was
being held without bail at San Francisco County Jail. He is
slated to undergo psychiatric evaluation today at San Francisco
General Hospital, sheriff's officials said.
Rudiger was arrested at 12:30 a.m. yesterday after a 48-year-old
homeless man fought off an assailant who slashed his throat as he
slept on a park bench near Vinton Court and Quincy Street in
Chinatown. The unidentified man, who is expected to survive,
alerted police. Officers Alane Baca and Gregory Huie spotted
Rudiger about two blocks away, at Grant Avenue and Sacramento
Street. He allegedly had a bloody knife in his belt. "It was
pretty good police work by the guys on the street," said Captain
John Goldberg of Central Station.
Rudiger has been portrayed in court records as a schizophrenic as
well as suffering from bipolar disorder. He is described as
having an "odd" appearance and being prone to violent outbursts.
He attempted suicide at age 15, stabbing himself with a samurai
sword, according to court documents. He was then
institutionalized at Napa State Hospital.
"Mr. Rudiger exhibits low frustration tolerance along with the
delusional belief that he is a samurai whose duty it is to `kill
all bad people,' " according to one evaluation in court records.
"I'm a samurai. I was samurai before I was born, even in another
life," he told one evaluator, according to court records.

GUNMAN SAID HE HEARD VOICES OF DEMONS
SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE, FRIDAY September 28, 1990 by Beatrice

The man who unleashed a night of terror in Berkeley prayed every
day, worked as a handyman, collected guns, hated blond Americans
and heard voices that said he owned the state of California.
Police and FBI reports, academic records and interviews with
people who knew and lived with Mehrdad Dashti paint a picture of
a 30-year -old Iranian immigrant torn between big dreams and
dangerous delusions.
Dashti's roommate, Frederick Smith, 19, described him as "a
really nice guy . . . easy to get along with," and a religious
Muslim who prayed in the living room. "He must have snapped,"
Smith said.
According to investigators, Dashti used a variety of fake
identities, occasionally masqueraded as a police officer and had
several run-ins with the law before yesterday's violent outburst.
Alameda County social service officials classified Dashti as a
paranoid schizophrenic in April 1988, according to a document
found in his apartment.
"I believe that I am the victim of a government experiment,
whereby I can communicate with many people using mental
telepathy," Dashti said in a sworn statement to police last year.
"I am not in control of the material that is being broadcasted
through my mind."
Details of Dashti's fantasy world are contained in records
compiled by FBI agents and San Francisco police, who investigated
allegations that Dashti and a friend had tried to pass $16,900 in
stolen checks. The records reveal that:
He used at least five different Social Security numbers,
including one issued to a 9-year-old girl, and several birth
dates. -- He complained on several occasions of hearing voices.
After being arrested for allegedly ramming 48 vehicles in
Berkeley and Albany in a 1988 vandalism spree, he claimed he was
not responsible because "demons" had made him wreck the cars.
During an interview with the FBI last year, Dashti said he had
been having mental problems for the past three years and was
seeing a counselor at Berkeley-Oakland Support Services, a public
assistance agency.
POLICE RECORD
Dashti's erratic personality brought him into frequent conflict
with the law. Shortly after immigrating to the United States from
Iran in 1979, he was arrested for petty theft; he was arrested
again on similar charges in 1983. Both times, he was placed in a
pretrial diversion program for small-time offenders. After his
1988 car spree, Dashti was sentenced to 18 days in jail and three
years probation. He was meeting regularly with his probation
officer just before his death.
Dashti's cramped apartment on Martin Luther King Way in Berkeley
is cluttered with travel posters, books and hundreds of pages of
photocopied letters to President Bush, Mayor Art Agnos, Health
and Human Services Secretary Louis Sullivan and Supreme Court
Justice William Rehnquist. In his letters, Dashti wrote that he
had been hearing voices for four years, telling him that he owned
the states of California, Oregon and Alaska and urging him to
demand that the U.S. government pay him $14 trillion.
"As you probably know," Dashti wrote in an undated letter to
Agnos, "some kind of supernatural phenomenon is going on around
here by means of which people hear voices in their head. These
voices come as different messages relating to our social life,
God and different power levels that exist among us."
Dashti wrote that he started hearing voices in September 1986. "I
first noticed in radio and television they were talking to me,"
he said. "I became real mad after a while. They not only are
reading thoughts, but injecting thought into the mind."
RANTING ABOUT BLONDES
There were signs that Dashti was progressively incapable of
dealing with society. During the siege, Dashti ranted about blond
women, saying they tempted men with provocative clothing.
"For some reason, he had something against blondes -- Caucasian
women -- and blond-haired, blue-eyed men," said Douglas Moore,
25, one of the hostages. "He had something against Americans." As
recently as a month ago, Dashti had asked his black roommate, UC
Berkeley junior Frederick Smith of Los Angeles, whether he knew
any black women Dashti could marry. Yet, Smith said, Dashti also
alternately dated and spurned a white blonde named Julie.

SUSPECT RULED INSANE
SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE, THURSDAY April 12, 1990
[BAY AREA REPORT ], Page number B8
SANTA ROSA -- A 24-year-old man accused of killing the matriarch
of a prominent Santa Rosa area turkey-ranching family was found
incompetent to stand trial and sent to a state mental hospital
yesterday. Superior Court Judge Raymond J. Giordano said Pierre
Creager could still face murder charges in connection with the
death of Eleen (Johnnie) Nicholas, 74, if his sanity is restored
through treatment at Atascadero State Hospital. The judge ordered
Creager to spend three years at the hospital.
Dr. Ronald W. Byledbal, a psychiatrist who interviewed the
suspect on Tuesday, told the court that Creager suffers from
delusions and should be classified as a paranoid schizophrenic.
Byledbal said Creager told him that he is guided by a power known
only to him and "believes he has done a good thing and would do
it again." Nicholas, mother-in-law of Sonoma County Supervisor
Janet Nicholas, was found dead in her home last Thursday.
