An air conditioning repairman has been linked to the stabbing deaths of three women, including a former girlfriend of actor Ashton Kutcher, who died more then 7 years ago.

A man, Michael Gargiulo, 32, of Santa Monica was already in custody since July for a separate knife attack during a burglary and now could face murder charges as soon as next week, police said Friday.

Gargiulo was being held in lieu of $1.1 million bail on attempted murder and burglary charges stemming from the April 28 stabbing of a Santa Monica woman in her home. Detectives matched a DNA sample taken from blood at the crime scene to Gargiulo. Police say further database cross-referencing found that Gargiulio’s DNA matched genetic evidence in the three killings.

One of the cases involves Kutcher’s former girlfriend, 22-year-old Ashley Ellerin, who was found dead in February 2001 in her Hollywood Hills home.

Kutcher, who is now married to actress Demi Moore, told police he went to pick up the fashion student-model for a post-Grammy Awards party, but she did not answer the door. He checked a back window and spotted what he thought were red wine stains on the carpet and then left. Her body was discovered the next day by a friend.

Police said they have a DNA match that links Gargiulo to another fatal stabbing of a Monterey Park woman in 2005. They also suspect Gargiulo in the 1993 killing of a high school girl in the Chicago suburb of Glenview, where Gargiulo lived at the time. Tricia Pacaccio, a senior at Glenbrook South High School, was found stabbed to death on her front doorstep, clutching her door key.

Gargiulo’s attorney, Anthony Salerno, tells the AP that, Gargiulo denies involvement in any of the attacks and “thinks the police are out to get him.”

Salerno acknowledged his client will possibly be charged with murder for the three slayings. He said that Gargiulo lived near the victims at the time of the attacks and a garment of his was found in one of the victims’ homes. But, he said, that does not make Gargiulo guilty. No but DNA evidence probably does!

I know this isn’t our usual fare, but given the popularity of the recent movie on this unsolved case thought some of you might be interested. The FBI has confirmed to Sacramento TV station CBS13, that they are now running laboratory tests on some items that may link a suspect to the killer. The evidence was given to the FBI by a Pollock Pines man who also claims he recently found the disguise worn by the Zodiac Killer during one of his attacks.

Dennis Kaufman is convinced his now deceased stepfather is the Zodiac Killer, and wants retribution because he thinks the man also killed his mother and many others. He himself turned forensic evidence including a blood stained knife, gruesome and undeveloped photos, handwriting samples, and a black hood with the zodiac sign on it. It’s similar to the hood worn during the vicious 1968 Lake Berryessa attack, which is the possible key evidence connecting his stepfather to the killings. Better then go into more details here is a link to a video CBS13 did, where they interview the stepson here.

John Law reviewed Jessica Simpson’s performance at the Avalon Ballroom in Ontario, Canada on Wednesday and he compared the performance to a train wreck, but with less direction. John writes in the Niagara Falls Review that Simpson couldn’t stop talking when she should have been singing. John writes, “Simpson needs to explain in exhausting detail what every single song is about, and the endless banter kills any momentum. She’s still living in a reality show, convinced everyone is so fascinated with her personal life, they’d rather hear her talk than sing.

Some of her less then inspiring blonde moments include:

Before the new song “Man Enough,” she said her man must be ready for anything - including the possibility she’s pregnant with an alien.

Before “Remember That,” a song about abuse, she said God wanted her to record it “so I could stand up here and be witness to you guys.”

Before the Dolly Parton-penned “Do You Know,” she talked about the night she screwed up the lyrics to “9 to 5” with Dolly in the audience. She was so bummed, “I told my daddy I’m never going to sing again … I’m going to ignore this gift God gave me.”

Alrighty then. Desperate for approval Wednesday’s show started with a taped message from Willie Nelson, basically asking the audience to give Jessica a chance. The audience welcomed her warmly and Simpson opened up about God, divorce and, um, flatulence.“I do pass gas a lot,” she said. “I guarantee it smells like roses.”

Sing Jessica, sing!

What a stunner in my book! Republican presidential hopeful John McCain has picked Sarah Palin, the governor of Alaska, as his surprise running mate. Apparently Heidi Montag wasn’t available.
Anyway at 44, Sarah Palin is younger than Barack Obama and is credited with reforms during her first term, but she is relatively unknown in political circles. She was though Miss Wasilla 1984. She won second place in the Miss Alaska contest, but was voted Miss Congeniality. So she’s got that going for her!

McCain is due to present her on stage at a rally in Dayton, Ohio, to celebrate his 72nd birthday. I thought for sure Mitt Romney would be the pick! What do you think good move by McCain or desperation? In any case come January, we will either have our first African-American President or our first female Vice-President!
