After his arrest he claimed to have started over 1400 fires in New York City but this claim was not investigated.
He said a demon in his neighbor’s dog told him to kill and later claimed that he had been in a cult with 22 members in NYC and more across the country who were involved in the drug trade and other crimes. He said they were involved in his crimes and he only shot the gun in the 1st and 6th crime and that he couldn’t release their names because his family would be at risk, but never said that under oath. He later said he had made up the stories about demons and that he had felt rejected by the world and especially women so he targeted young, pretty ones.
He became a Born-Again Christian in prison and wrote Son of Hope: The Prison Journals of David Berkowitz from which he obtained no royalties. He runs a website through the church community and is involved in church activity within the prison. He said he doesn't want parole and it has been denied 6 times after automatically having it requestioned every 2 years.
Stacy Moskowitz’s mother wrote him a letter forgiving him for killing her daughter.
