Atlanta Escorts: Man charged with killing Riverdale mother of two

Thomas had been arrested at least twice in the past 18 months for prostitution, in Gwinnett and DeKalb counties.
In 2008 and 2009, she had arrests in Fulton, Clayton and Cobb counties related to drug possession, forgery and lying to police.
But those who knew her said she was trying to make a turnaround.
The most recent arrest, in DeKalb County on Nov. 10, 2010, led her to a prostitution diversion program, her attorney, Albert Mitchell, told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Mitchell said Rochelle Thomas was estranged from her sons for nearly five years. Her mother had the boys until she could quit the sex trade.

While Beverly Mitchell reveled Friday in the work police and the GBI did to arrest and charge someone in her daughter’s murder, she couldn’t help but lament at losing a daughter she seemed to have just regained from the world of prostitution.

SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) – A former Marine convicted of killing three women in Illinois pleaded not guilty Friday to murdering five more women in California.
Andrew Urdiales entered the plea in Superior Court in Santa Ana, said Farrah Emami, a spokeswoman for the Orange County district attorney’s office.
Authorities allege Urdiales killed five women in Orange, Riverside and San Diego counties between 1986 and 1995. Many of his victims were prostitutes who were repeatedly stabbed or shot.
Urdiales was convicted in 2002 of two murders in Illinois and a third in 2004 and sentenced to death. Two of those sentences were commuted to life without the possibility of parole in 2002 by then-Gov. George Ryan. When Illinois banned the death penalty, Urdiales’ third sentence also was commuted to life without the possibility of parole.
