And despite the fact that he won on the show, apparently his demeanor behind the scenes was so unnerving and creepy that the lucky bachelorette decided to renege on her choice.
Convicted three times for murder, Alcala repeatedly appealed his death sentences.

Alcala is listed having as many as 130 victims including 28-year-old Christine Thornton in 1977. Thornton and her boyfriend were traveling from San Antonio, Texas to Montana to pan for gold, but the couple broke up, and the last time the boyfriend saw Thornton was in Green River.
Thornton was pregnant at the time, and some time after she left her boyfriend, she crossed paths with Alcala. Alcala, posing as a young photographer, persuaded Thornton to take portraits in a desolate area just outside of Granger. Her remains were found by a southwest Wyoming rancher in 1982, but weren’t identified for more than 30 years.
