The Hitchhiker Murders | 1970s Unsolved True Crime Mystery

Santa Rosa is located in Sonoma County, California. During the late 60s and early 70s it was close enough to be caught up in the vortex of the hippie movement in San Francisco which was only a few miles south from the town.

In 1968 the Zodiac Killer was making the headlines and the Manson family were caught in the brutal slayings of several persons on Cielo Drive in the Hollywood Hills. During a time and place where murder was rife, the news of the discovery of the nude, tortured bodies of young women last seen hitchhiking were soon eclipsed and until this day their killer has never been caught.
