A serial killer convicted of slaying three women in Illinois is being extradited to California to face charges that he killed five Southern California women as well.
Andrew Urdiales, 47, is accused of killing women in Orange, Riverside and San Diego counties from 1986 to 1995, but the cases will be consolidated and tried in Orange County.
Prosecutors could seek the death penalty.
Urdiales was expected to arrive Thursday in Orange County from a prison in Illinois. An arraignment date has not been set.
Urdiales was stationed at various bases in Southern California while enlisted in the Marines from 1984 to 1991.
