A man nicknamed the NorCal Rapist was sentenced Friday to 897 years in prison for attacks on women in their homes between 1991 and 2006.
Roy Charles Waller, 60, was found guilty last month by a Sacramento jury on all 46 counts after investigators used DNA technology to identify him in the rapes of nine women.
"He deserves every single second of it, and I hope he lives a very, very, very long life from here on out," said survivor Nicole Earnest-Payte. "I never have to think about him for one more second of my life, and that is the greatest relief I could ever, ever, feel."
