Dale Hausner
Live from the courtroom: Answering questions written down by jurors, Samuel Dieteman, the confessed accomplice in the Serial Shooter killing spree, said he believes Dale Hausner would kill again if acquitted or set free somehow.
“If he got out, it wouldn’t be a day or two, but I’m sure that maybe a year down the road he would start doing something again, whether it would be more shootings or whatever,” Dieteman said. “I morally couldn’t have lived with myself if I hadn’t have come here to testify. I just wanted to make sure that some semblance of justice is done — for the victims — for both myself and mr Hausner.”
Hausner is on trial accused of eight murders and numerous other shootings during 2005 and 2006 across the Phoenix valley. He has pleaded not guilty to the crimes. Dieteman has confessed to being involved with a number of the shootings in 2006, including two murders.
