Peter Fabiano Murder

On Halloween night in 1957, 35-year-old Los Angeles resident, Peter Fabiano, answered the door to what he believed to be trick-or-treaters. Instead, the last thing he saw was an adult in a hat, red gloves, and a domino mask, aiming a brown paper bag that contained a .22 caliber pistol right at him. The person fired the fatal shot and immediately fled the scene, hoping to disappear under the cover of anonymity. A woman named Joan Rabel, who had an affair with Peter’s wife, Betty, wanted revenge after her lover reconciled with her husband. With help from Goldyne Pizer, she murdered Peter Fabiano. Police managed to track them both down and they were jailed for second-degree murder and sentenced to five years in prison.
