Caltech and the science world are in mourning today after the senseless murder of genius scientist Carl Grillmair at his rural home in Antelope Valley, north of L.A.
On Monday, the 62-year-old astrophysicist was found by sheriff’s deputies with a gunshot wound to his torso on the front porch of his home. Paramedics arrived soon afterward but were unable to save Grillmair, and he was pronounced dead at the scene.
