Sharon Marie Huddle: Life Story of the Golden State Killer's Ex-Wife

She was married to her husband for more than 40 years and even welcomed three children. She did not know that her husband was a serial killer who had killed and raped a dozen people in that period. When it was time for her to face the press after her husband pleaded guilty to 26 charges in a raping and killing spree, she only asked for privacy and that of her children. That was the last time Sharon Marie Huddle talked about her ex-husband’s behaviour.

Sharon Marie Huddle is an American family law attorney. She is best known as the ex-wife of the Golden State Killer, Joseph James DeAngelo. Apart from being associated with a serial killer, Sharon co-founded a surrogacy advocacy organisation.

The mission of the organisation was to protect the rights of surrogate women. After her husband admitted to being a serial killer, Sharon hid from the public space and resurfaced over two years later. So, what is her story?
