MURDERER Dorothea Puente was charged and convicted of various killings where she victimized the elderly.
Serial killer Dorothea was branded by the media as the "Death House Landlady" for her tendency to target and murder her senior citizen tenants - and steal their social security money.
Who was Dorothea Puente?
Dorothea Puente was a California landlady who ran a boarding house in Sacramento during the 1980s.
Dorothea often took in the elderly and homeless and placed them as her tenants.
Eventually, the "Death House Landlady" would then drug her tenants to the point of rendering them incapacitated.
Dorothea followed up the drugging by carrying out the tenants' murder and burying them in her backyard and garden.
After burying the victims on her property, she then cashed in on the victims' social security checks.
