The 9th victim of the serial killer called the "Grim Sleeper," Princess Berthomieux, a 15-year-old female, was found strangled and beaten March 19, 2002, in an Inglewood California alley, authorities said.
Her body was found by a passerby in the shrubs, according to coroner's records. Although the coroner gave the date her body was found as March 9, 2002, officials from the Los Angeles County district attorney's office said her body was found 10 days later.
Berthomieux had last been seen by her family on Dec. 21, 2001, police said.
On July 7, 2010, authorities arrested Lonnie David Franklin Jr., a 57-year old black man, at his home in South Los Angeles after police said they made DNA matches linking him to Berthomieux's killing, as well as others dating between 1985 to 2007.
