Personal life

McNamara died in her sleep in the family's Los Angeles home on April 21, 2016.

Oswalt posted a brief video to Instagram, saying: "I think you got him, Michelle."[51] He also posted on Twitter that same day, saying that he hoped to visit the suspect if he was indeed the Golden State Killer, "not to gloat or gawk - to ask him the questions that [McNamara] wanted answered in her 'Letter to an Old Man'" at the end of her book.[52]
