Man Charged With Killing L.A. Woman, Unborn Twins

Boneetio Washington, 22, was charged with killing a Venice woman who was four months pregnant with twins.

LOS ANGELES (AP) -A former mental patient has been charged with raping and murdering a Los Angeles woman and her unborn twins at her apartment.

Three counts of murder were filed Thursday against 22-year-old Boneetio Washington. The Culver City man also is charged with rape and is jailed without bail.

Prosecutors haven't decided whether to seek the death penalty.

Washington is accused of raping and stabbing 39-year-old Eun Kang in her Venice home Tuesday night. Police believe he randomly targeted Kang, who was four months pregnant.

Washington is on probation after pleading no contest to burglary in September. Court records show that case was delayed after he was declared mentally unfit and spent several months in a state mental hospital.
