Queer Fears

This week, we've got a case that is still being worked on. In fact, just 2 days before posting this episode, police announced they had possibly identified a 6th victim of "The Doodler" and upped the reward for information in helping to solve the case. In the mid-70's, San Francisco was terrorized by a serial killer who targeted gay men and was nicknamed "The Doodler" due to his tendency to sketch his victims. Join us as Cassie tells us about the beautiful men who were lost, and how there are likely multiple people out there who possibly know exactly who “The Doodler” is, including the police. SFPD is offering a $200,000 reward to anyone with information that leads to the apprehension of the killer. Tips can be called into the 24-hour hotline at 415-575-4444 or texted to TIP411, starting the message with SFPD. Tipsters can remain anonymous. *This episode was recorded in November, so new and relevant information is not included in this episode but will be mentioned in future episodes.
