The Milpitas, CA murder, from Nov. 1981, is described here (June 2017):

https://www.sfweekly.com/news/yesterdays-crimes-what-really-happened-at-the-rivers-edge/

"River's Edge" was released in 1986, with Crispin Glover, Keanu Reeves, Dennis Hopper - and Daniel Roebuck as the murderer.

Just found this.

There are 261 comments, starting in 2006. The last comment was on March 9, 2022.

One comment, from May 19, 2008 at 1:54 pm, is (allegedly) from a former cellmate of the murderer. (There's an error, though - the murder victim was not the murderer's girlfriend.) Another comment is from the arresting officer..

The really interesting comments suggest, at least, that the other teens who saw the body and who didn't report the murder for days were simply young and scared. (For good reason. After all, how many spontaneous killers BRAG about their crimes instead of keeping quiet?)

Oddly, the Wikipedia entry isn't as long as you might expect.
