{{Short description|none}}This is a
list of notable homicides in California. This list includes notable
homicides committed in the
U.S. state of
California that have a
Pseudopedia article on the killing, the killer, or the victim. It is divided into four subject areas as follows:
- Multiple homicides – homicides having multiple victims, including incidents involving spree killers, acts of terrorism, two mass homicides involving criminal acts causing airline crashes, and a mass suicide directed by a cult leader. The article includes sub-lists for homicides involving school shootings, familicides, and police shootouts.
- Serial killers – persons who murder three or more persons with the incidents taking place over more than a month and including a significant period of time between them
- Single homicides – notable homicides involving a single fatality, including homicides involving celebrities as victims or perpetrators
- Bias homicides – includes attacks directed against Native Americans (a more complete list of those incidents is set forth in the California genocide article), Asian immigrants, members of a religious group, and individuals based on sexual orientation
