message: I just searched for him in California's inmate locator: http://inmatelocator.cdcr.ca.gov/search.aspx  
...and he's not there!  Maybe the search results are garnered from several databases and the one holding his record is down at the moment? CousinJohn (talk) 05:39, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: No, there's no evidence that he died. He's still on Death Row, biding the many years he has left before California gets around to executing some of the many ahead of him. It must be something that needs updating on their system. Doc talk 05:58, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: So noted. Thank you for the reply.  BTW, I am fairly new to Wikipedia and did not know to place new discussion at the bottom, which I will do henceforth. Still bugs me that he doesn't show up in the inmate locator. Check your weapons.  CousinJohn (talk) 17:18, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: That dirtbag is notorious enough that it would have received international news reports if he had died. They'll probably update it at some point, but there's no reason to believe he isn't still in San Quentin on Death Row. Cheers :> Doc talk 21:51, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: My goof. The CDCR now has him listed as "Rick" (not Richard) but had I been thinking I could have just searched for his CDCR number, which is still as shown in the photo. They've got him up in San Quentin, where (FYI) all of California's male death row inmates are. CousinJohn (talk) 02:21, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: So, why is this man still alive? Why do they have to go one-by-one? If you have a serial murderer, rapist, burglar, etc. with overwhelmingly evidence that the person did the crimes, especially in the modern era of DNA-based forensics, what could possibly keep delaying the inevitable?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.198.29.15 (talk) 08:11, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Not only is he still alive, he's safe from the general prison population, who generally don't take kindly to child murderers. And he can't kill himself (not that he wants to).  These appeals drag on for decades. A horrible shame in a case such as this, where guilt is certain. Polly Klaas would have been a 32 year-old woman right now,  Doc talk 08:30, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

text: Reminder: the Talk page is for discussion of the article (e.g. how to improve it, etc.) rather than the article's topic. (But I also detest chipping in so that RD can get free rent & food for life --the incentive we offer to commit heinous crimes. Many other countries would have been done with him a long time ago.)

thread_title: Did he die? If not, then where is he?

message: The article records that "Friends of Voris believe Davis murdered her". Was this their belief at the time - which would carry some weight - or merely after his arrest and/or conviction for the Klaas murder - which would carry little weight?203.184.41.226 (talk) 06:02, 29 September 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Voris 

message: There is something fishy with this and it bears further research of the military service facts of his record, which should be available, if even by a FOI request.  That is an unusually short and non-standard tour of military service (including basic training, leave, and travel) and occurs during the Vietnam War!
