The man accused of being the "60 Freeway Slayer," who terrorized the San Gabriel Valley in the early 1990s by strangling six woman, won't dispute that he is the killer as his trial gets underway this week.

The revelation, contained in court papers, ends the 13-year mystery of who was responsible for the grisly killings, which all took place in communities along the Pomona Freeway.

Deputy Dist. Atty. John Monaghan is expected to introduce tape of a 911 call made by Hill to Pomona police that led authorities to the body of victim Brown on Jan. 12, 1994. She was found face down in San Antonio Park in Ontario.

Also, jurors will see the letter that Hill wrote to a relative from jail when he was being interviewed about the killings in late 2003.

He said, "I knew this day would come when they came with the DNA samples."
