She then learned that Franklin had been accused of carrying out 10 killings across the Los Angeles area over two decades and was known as 'the Grim Sleeper ' . He goes on trial this June .

Shock : Mo said she was stunned when she saw her photo on a documentary about her former neighbor . She said Franklin had seemed friendly when they lived beside each other and took a photo of the then-26-year-old outside her home - the image that later showed up among police files . One evening , he asked her to go for a ride in his van and , thinking they were friends , she agreed . But while on the journey he asked to take photos of her naked and showed her other images he had taken of women , she told ABC7 . 'When he showed me the pictures I asked him why are they in weird positions , and they look dead , ' she said . 'He told me they was n't , that 's just how he have them take pictures . ' She said she then noticed a gun and van inside the van so she agreed to the pictures , fearing he would hurt her if she did not . After the incident , she told no one because she was embarrassed about the images and she forced the thought from her mind - until she watched the documentary over the weekend . 'When my picture popped up it was like , `` Oh my God ! '' It was shocking , ' she said . Chilling : Her picture ( circled ) was among images of other women believed to have fallen victim to Lonnie Franklin . Jr. , who has been accused of 10 murders . The images were all found in his possession . Photo : She posed for the image for Franklin when she was his neighbor in Los Angeles in 2006 . Mo , whose image was among photos of other women who are feared to be his victims , added that she believes she also could have been killed by him . 'He 's a monster , ' she told ABC7 . She has been in contact with the Los Angeles Police Department , who are looking into her story . Franklin , 62 , has has pleaded not guilty to ten counts of murder and one count of attempted murder and will stand trial on June 29 , it was announced last month following years of delays . Franklin could face the death penalty if convicted of the murder between 1985 and 2007 . He was given the nickname 'Grim Sleeper ' because of the gap between slayings in 1988 and 2002 . Police arrested Franklin in July 2010 after his DNA was connected to more than a dozen crime scenes . They had linked the crimes , but did not have a suspect until a crime lab computer traced the sample to one of Franklin 's family members . Accused : Franklin , 62 , pictured in court in Los Angeles last month , will go on trial on June 29 this year . Probe : A 2010 photo shows items being removed from his home after his DNA matched with cold cases . An officer posing as a busboy at a pizza parlor got DNA samples from dishes and utensils Franklin had been eating with at a birthday party . As news of the trial date has been announced , attorney Nina Salarno Ashford , a board member of Crime Victims United , said it is not unusual for capital cases to take years to complete . Deputy District Attorney Beth Silverman said the case has been plagued by delays and that the judge has failed to hold the defense to strict deadlines to complete their investigation . But defense lawyer Seymour Amster blamed the prosecution , and said his expert found DNA from another man at three of the crime scenes and is seeking to test more material . A firearms expert who tested guns retired last year , so the testing needed to be done again , while medical examiners at the coroner 's office have retired and will also need to be replaced .
