Under police interrogation, Unruh gave a meticulous account of his actions, which was later released by [[Camden County, New Jersey|Camden County]] [[prosecutor]] Mitchell Cohen (no relation to Maurice Cohen). Only at the end of this interrogation did police discover that Unruh had a bullet wound in his left thigh. He was subsequently taken to Cooper Hospital for treatment, where his thirteenth victim, John Wilson, was already dying.<ref name="newspaperarchive1949"/>

Charges were filed for thirteen counts of "willful and malicious slayings with malice aforethought" and three counts of "atrocious assault and battery". Unruh was eventually diagnosed with [[paranoid schizophrenia]] by psychologists and found to be [[insane]], making him immune to criminal prosecution. When he was able to leave Cooper Hospital, Unruh was sent to the New Jersey Hospital for the Insane (now [[Trenton Psychiatric Hospital]]), to be held in a private cell in the maximum-security Vroom Building.<ref name="trutv"/> He remained incarcerated there until his death in 2009. Unruh's last public words, made during an interview with a psychologist, were, "I'd have killed a thousand if I had enough bullets."<ref name="History of World Crime">Nash, Jay.
