Silly thing about these cases is the offender is given a limited sentence period instead of preventative detention, especially after repeat offending.....Me, Id just chop of his c**k....
Edit:
Apparently there are two "pillowcase" rapists from CA from around the same time.
That said I do believe the one in the OP finished his criminal sentence in 1996 and has since that time been detained civilly under CA's Sexually Violent Predators Act. The other one linked to ~200 rapes has been out since 1995(well until 2011 as he is currently in prison for failure to register as a sex offender). The later one would have been detained indefinitely if he wasn't released for good behavior after 16 years. Basically they parole the white pillowcase rapist repeatedly, he screws up repeatedly and his sentences aren't over until 1996 but CA crafts a new law specifically to detain him indefinitely. They do not parole the black pillowcase rapist, he gets out on good behavior months before the new law goes into effect that allows offenders to be detained indefinitely once their criminal sentences are over.
The biggest issue here, for both pillowcase rapists, is when the crimes were committed. The US was incredibility soft on sexual crimes until fairly recently, both in terms of sentencing and in terms of statutes of limitations. These days both guys would be in jail without the possibility of parole. Its the same way with DUIs. You commonly hear of stories were so and so was driving drunk and killed someone. They had 18 prior DUI's, and people ask why they weren't already in jail. They weren't because the persons previous DUIs were all when DUIs weren't serious offenses.
