Accused serial killer blames ‘kill gene’ for fatally stabbing six in California

A California man accused of fatally stabbing six people during a weeks-long murder spree blamed a “kill gene” in his DNA that gave him a thrill for blood. Itzcoatl (Izzy) Ocampo, a former U.S. Marine, smiled when he recalled the Ocean County killings during an interview with police after he was arrested in January 2012, according to a recording of the confession obtained by KTLA-TV. “It felt weird,” Ocampo, then 25, said in the clip. “My testicles ... the f--king kill gene hit my sperm. Like, that’s the way I feel right now, like my sperm had f--king kill in them. Like, all right, you’re not a b---h anymore.” Ocampo — who died after apparently drinking a bottle of Ajax in his jail cell in November 2013 — allegedly began his killing spree when he stabbed Juan Herrera, 34, and his 53-year-old mother, Raquel Estrada, in their Yorba Linda home on Oct. 25, 2011.
