Fitzgerald began with the rape of a 13 year old relative of his girlfriend.
Then he shot and killed his girlfriend's uncle.
Then he hailed a cab and murdered the 72- year old cab driver and dumped his body in a creek.
Then at a nearby motel, he raped the 18 year old girlfriend of a friend he thought had fathered a child with his own girlfriend.
He then hitched a ride to the courthouse in Chatham to turn himself in.
As the car pulled up, the driver heard a click and saw Fitzgerald sitting with his gun in his mouth.))
