Murder Suspect Kept Separate Safe Deposit Boxes

SAN RAFAEL, Calif. (AP) -- Prosecutors say serial killing suspect Joseph Naso kept a safety deposit box to store items related to victims he is charged with killing, and another he used for money.

Marin County prosecutor Rosemary Slote said during a hearing Tuesday that the separate boxes are significant evidence in this case. Authorities say one of the boxes contained news clippings related to the killings connected to Naso.

The 77-year-old Naso is charged with the murders of four Northern California prostitutes with matching initials in the 1970s and 1990s: Roxene Roggasch, Carmen Colon, Pamela Parsons and Tracy Tafoya.

Prosecutors say Naso also kept a list of 10 women including the four he is charged with killing. Prosecutors have not said if the remaining six on the list were located.
