However,
after he bought her a few drinks, she
doesn't remember much of that night
except waking up in an alley smelling
like sardines. "I'll never get
rid of that smell," she said in
a 1983 interview with People Magazine.
Dubbed as the “Bay Area Rapist,” Stoddard baffled police for years
with these rapes. The only modis operandi in these cases was that the victims
always woke up in an alley smelling like sardines.
"There was never any real proof that we were in fact ‘rape victims’ because
Mr. Stoddard is a very small man. He was always very slick and smooth and he
was very fast." says Marleen Kent of San Francisco. "He could get up
to the bar and be back within seconds."
A big break in the case developed when Charles Stoddard was pulled over in
1982 on the Coquihalla Highway. During a routine vehilce search, police found
countless emptied bottles of a drug called Rohypnol and boxes of San Xavier
brand Sardines. This is believe to be the earliest example of someone using
Rohypnol as a date rape drug.
"We were lucky to get a break like that in the case", says Retired
California Highway Patrol Deputy Samuel Owens.
"Had it not been for that, who knows how many times that horny little penguin
would have struck?"
A spokesperson for Stoddard said in a press conference this afternoon, that
his client has paid his dues to society and is not a danger to anyone.
When asked if Stoddard would return to acting, the spokesperson said that Mr.
Stoddard was thinking of about returning to acting years ago however, once
Danny DeVito landed the part of Oswald Cobblepot in the 1992 blockbuster hit
Batman Returns, all of his hopes faded away.
Due to CGI there isn't a big need for penguin actors these days, so Mr. Stoddard
is planning on getting his autobiography he wrote in prison published, and
perhaps selling the rights of his story to anyone who would be interested,
the spokesperson concluded.
