The following is a work in progress. I welcome corrections, additions, suggestions, comments and questions. To respect the privacy of family members and/or current occupants, the exact addresses and locations of homes owned by JJD or JJD family are not given. This map and timeline focuses on Orange County and shows the locations of OC victims homes, workplaces and places last seen. The other southern California murders are mentioned on the timeline.
In particular, the timeline could use more info on JJD life events. Also info on when JJD wife purchased Long Beach home, and if we can confirm when JJD lived there or visited there.
Research for the Orange County events and locations in this graphic was done by Morf and AK Wilks, JJD family property research done by Saturnrising and Morf, Shelly Cruz contributed information about Bullwinkles and where it was located and original graphic design byTraveller1st, updated by AK Wilks.

Yes I agree. Trav did an excellent job as usual. I am making a few corrections and improvements to this graphic, and when he gets a chance, Trav told me he will improve on the graphic and make some of my crude updates more polished.
Morf did some key research on JJD uncles homes here in Irvine, and provided it to law enforcement. We shall see how it all pans out, but I think there’s a very high chance that that research will be a key in the prosecution of JJD in Orange County, where he is charged with four murders.
When Trav I get this graphic corrected and finalized, we might choose to make it available to authorities in Orange County. I can state from personal knowledge that both law enforcement and prosecutorial authorities in Orange County in the past were very appreciative of Morf’s research and Traveller1st’s graphics, even commenting that Trav did a better job of presenting information then what they had on staff.
The incredible thing here is how close the properties of JJD’s relatives were to key locations in the Golden State Killer activities in Orange County. JJD Uncle One’s home was just 1.3 miles away from Manuella Witthuhn’s home. JJD Uncle Two’s home is exactly one mile from Janelle Cruz’s home and 2.1 miles to Bullwinkles, the restaurant where she worked as a waitress.
Shelly Cruz told me that Bullwinkles was a family fun type restaurant, kind of like a local Chuck-E-Cheese, where parents would bring their young children for a fun time, sometimes for a birthday party or event, sometimes just for lunch or dinner.
JJD had a daughter that was born in 1981, so she would have been four or five in 1986, meaning there’s a very good possibility that JJD could have gone here with his wife and daughter, and seen Janelle Cruz as a waitress.
These two Irvine homes of JJD relatives, as you can see above, were also very close to the hospital work places of Keith and Patrice Harrington, and the hospital where Manuella Witthuhn was last seen alive.
Law enforcement will research and find how extensive the connections between JJD and his uncles and/or cousins were, if there were connections of friendship, visiting, access and/or work.
