Richard Ramirez, the notorious serial killer known as the Night Stalker, died early Friday in a hospital, a state official said.

Ramirez, 53, "passed away this morning," San Quentin State Prison spokesman Lt. Sam Robinson told The Associated Press. No other details were released.

The Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation said Ramirez died of "natural causes." He had been housed on death row for decades and was awaiting execution, even though it has been years since anyone has been put to death in California.

Ramirez had been taken from death row to Marin General Hospital.

I hope it hurt like hell before he finally died. I hope his death from cancer was prolonged and painful and that he was frightened by what was about to happen to him. Unfortunately, they probably gave this sadistic psychopathic murdering freak morphine and other treatment for his disease. Anyway, he is finally gone and no one has to ever worry about him again. I hope his death though from natural causes gives the families of his many victims some peace, as much as is possible at least.
