61 year old twice married and divorced Mary Cerruti had lived in the quiet, unassuming neighborhood of mostly Depression-era bungalows and senior citizens. She had lived here since 2001, for 14 years. It was peaceful here. Then developers moved in and began pressuring peopled to sell their homes so the developers could build multi-story condominiums and apartments. The community was changing from a tranquil area of lots of empty nesters to upscale loud, overcrowded neighborhood of yuppies and dinkies. She spoke out against the instrusion at a community meeting. Shortly thereafter, she was never seen again. Her house fell into disrepair with an overgrown lawn, and the mortage not paid. Police were called to look in on her and found a house full of stench and dead cats, but no Mary. The house was put up for auction and sold. The new owner leased it to a young Couple. The couple went into the attic, looked down an hole, and found her bones.

This is the site where the Corll Candy Store was located. Dean Corll (1939 - 1973) was a homosexual who left the military prematurely to work for his mother's candy company. He liked little boys and encouraged them to come over. He installed a pool table in the rear of the candy store so they would come more frequently and stay longer. He gave them free candy and earned the nickname of the "Candy Man." Corll had 2 hench boys, David Brooks and Elmer Wayne Henley, who he would pay $100 to $200 a head for new victims to come to his various homes over the years. Brooks and Henley often aided Corll in killing their friends. Corll operated primarily in the Houston Heights neighborhood until 1973 when he moved to Pasadena and continued his killing. Corll was responsible for at least 28 murders between 1970 and 1973. However, he had earned the nickname in 1965 and he possibly murdered over 100 people counting the time from 1965 to 1970.
