The home hides a dark pastBut due to the high profile nature of the case, he decided to make the public aware on the unfortunate event that befell the residence 50 years ago.Mr Giambalvo told the Los Angeles Times: “We don’t want somebody to go into escrow and find out 10 days, 15 days later that there was the event that happened 50 years ago. And then they don’t want to buy it because of that.“We just wanted people to make offers with their eyes wide open.”

The couple, who were brutally killed, are sometimes referred to as the forgotten victims“The first showings were yesterday, and I already have several people telling me that their clients are preparing to make an offer.”The house was last put on the market in 1998, and other local real estate agents do not think the home's dark history will affect its selling.
