Berkowitz pleaded guilty Monday to the six , random .44-caliber killings com mitted during a year-long reign of terror • as the furtive Son of Sam. ' ' ' "I'm an , excellent shot,"' Berkowitz said quietly at one stage in a unique interrogation by three different judges. At another point, the 24-year-old Berkowitz cooly detailed the slaying of 'lB-year-old Donna Lauria of the Bronx, the fa* of his six victims. "You battard;" the girl's mother, Rose, sobbed through a handkerchief from a fourth-roW seat in the courtroom where emotions among parents of the victims ran high , and seemed in stark . contrast to the defendant's self-control. Berkowitz ' faces a maximum of 25 • years to life in prison for each of the six slayings ,and a . maximum of 25 years ip prison , for the • attempted • murder -, of ' seven victims who escaped with injuries. Sentencing was set for May 22 on all counts. , ' • • ... . .However, under New York State law, any cumulative sentence for, the ex serviceman and former postal clerk p:O i tkinig.tee package to Israel .. . details of, negotiations underway be tween congressional leaders and the administration, but noted changes in the numbers of planes for each country could be made in the present package if the White House and Congress consent. '.Elsewhere, Saudi Arabian oil minister Ahmed Zaki Yamani said his country does - not see a direct linkage between Saudi oil sales and the purchase of the U.S.. fighters. But fhe said if would be "naive" to think a rejection of one would not affect the other. , The former secretary of state strongly endorsed increasing the number of planes slated for Israel. He said the 75 F-16s and 15 F-15 jet 4 •:: COPIES -• cannot exceed 30 years to life, making him eligible to apply for parole when he is 54. The only surprise in the 2 1 / 2 .-hour hearing came when Bronx District Attorney Mario Merola revealed that Berkowitz kept a diary in which he logged up to 2,000 arson fires he claimed to have set, predominantly in the Bronx, from 1974-1977 a period overlapping his savage career as the night-time Son of Sam. Security was unusally tight as Berkowitz arrived at the courthouse shoitly after 9 a.m. in a heavily armed motorcade. A police helicopter hovered overhead, and police and court guards frisked spectators and reporters who had to go through two metal detectors inside the building. Not once in his lengthy question and answer se s sion was Berkowitz asked, nor did he volunteer, information about his widely publicized role as Son of Sam. He had said previously that he was driven to kill by hordes of demons marshaled by a 6,000-year-old devil incarnate whom he identified as a Yonkers neighbor, 64-year-old Sam Carr. fighters were "at the very lowest end of the spectrum" of-the numbers discussed during the Ford administration. "The numbers requested while I was in office were several orders 'of magnitude above this," Kissinger add ed. ' In addition, Kissinger said the earlier figures were not discussed in the context of sales to Arab nations. "Israel did not have any reason to anticipate this; which is one reason I feel the Israeli part of the package should be augmented," he added. While advocating a larger number.of jets for Israel,. Kissinger also endorsed ' the sales to Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
