Neighbors were in disbelief after seeing crime tape up around the home that's been helping people for decades.
"Normally for the elderly or you know people or disabled, it's all I've known for I don't know, they've been there for 30 years, but it's been different caregivers," said one neighbor. "At first I was really concerned because if it's murder or she passed away on her own, but we didn't know if it was foul play or what happened, so course it's pretty scary."
It's an scene all too familiar for neighbors at the home not far from where suspected East Area Rapist Joseph DeAngelo was found.
