== After conviction == In October 1983, Woodfield was injured by an Oregon State Penitentiary inmate during a prison disturbance. In April 1987, Woodfield filed a $12 million libel suit against author Ann Rule,<sup>[8]</sup> the true crime author who had written ''The I-5 Killer''. The account of Woodfield's life and crime spree became a best-selling book in 1984. The Federal Court in Oregon dismissed the lawsuit in January 1988, citing that the statute of limitations on such a lawsuit had been exhausted. By 1990, after the discovery of more victims, Woodfield was suspected in at least 44 homicides. In 2001 and 2006, DNA testing linked Woodfield to two additional murders in Oregon that occurred from 1980 and 1981. During his time at the penitentiary, Woodfield has married three times and divorced twice. Some letters he wrote from prison were eventually sold online as a collection titled, ''The Serial Killer Letters'' and published by The Charles Press. Woodfield wrote the following on his MySpace account in 2006: "I'm Randy, I'm 55. I spend the remainder of my days in prison because I have committed a murder along with many other crimes. I once tried out for the Green Bay Packers. The only reason I didn't make it is because the skills I had to offer they didn't need at the time." Inmates do not have Internet access in prison, but have friends or family open social media accounts for them, posting as if the inmate were doing it. In May 2012, he was linked by DNA to three more cold cases (namely, Darci Fix and Doug Altic in 11/80 and Julie Reitz 2/81) [[Category:Male]] [[Category:Serial Killer]] [[Category:Modern Villains]] [[Category:Rapists]] [[Category:Living Villains]] [[Category:Perverts]] [[Category:Kidnapper]] [[Category:Criminals]] [[Category:Murderer]] [[Category:Thief]] [[Category:Athletic]] [[Category:Liars]] [[Category:Charismatic]] [[Category:Egotist]] [[Category:Imprisoned]]
