21. The Doodler

The Golden State Killer. The Unabomber. Ted Bundy. You're probably familiar with these serial killers. But in the mid-1970s, another monster terrorized San Francisco's gay community. He was coined: The Doodler, & he may have been responsible for as many victims as the Zodiac Killer. Plagued by a complicated investigation, a frightened public, & the hesitation of many to come forward, the case went cold, & a killer walked free. 50 years later, a renewed hunt for a forgotten serial killer seeks to change that.
