    Cheri Jo Bates


    Episode 18 Cheri Jo Bates

    In 1966, Riverside City College student Cheri Jo Bates was viciously stabbed 42 times and nearly decapitated in an alley after leaving the school library. Police discovered that her car had been deliberately disabled, and concluded that her attacker had deliberately sabotaged it in order to get to her. The case was thoroughly investigated, but had started to cool when an anonymous confession letter arrived – claiming responsibility for the murder in great detail. Additional letters added to the mystery. And then, another killer dominated the headlines in California – a killer who also sent anonymous letters that bore marked similarities to the confession letter. Was Cheri Jo Bates the first victim of the serial killer who terrorized California in the late 1960s, who has never been identified – the Zodiac?

    The Zodiac Killer Part 2
    Episode 21 The Zodiac Killer Part 2

    In the second part of our Zodiac Killer coverage, we explore 2 separate attacks. First we examine the September 1969 attack on Cecelia Shepard and Bryan Hartnell in which the killer wore an executioner's hood while he repeatedly stabbed the couple in broad daylight at Napa County's tranquil Lake Berryessa. Next we look at the October, 1969 murder of cab driver Paul Stine in which he shot Stine in San Francisco's most upscale neighborhood signaling a departure from the couple's normal MO of targeting younger couples. After the murder of Paul Stine, there was never a confirmed Zodiac attack again.

    We are joined by GeoProfiler Douglas MacGregor who provides us with analysis of the Zodiac's crime locations

    The Zodiac Killer Part 1

    The Zodiac Killer Part 1
    Episode 20 The Zodiac Killer Part 1

    On December 20, 1968, just after 11pm, 2 teenagers David Faraday and Betty Lou Jensen were parked on sleepy and dark Lake Herman Rd on the outskirts of Vallejo, CA. The spot where they parked was one often chosen by young people to due it's privacy. On this night, they weren't alone. A killer pulled up beside their car. What happened next is not known, but what is known is that minutes later, a woman driving by the scene found both of them shot lying near David's car. She raced off to get help and brought police back to the scene. Responding officers found David barely clinging to life. He had been shot once behind the ear at close range. 28 feet away, Betty Lou lay dead, the victim of multiple shots to her back. The randomness of the double murder and clear lack of a motive cast a dark cloud over the coming Christmas holiday. As the holidays passed, the murders faded from memory.

    Seven months later, on the night of July 4, 1969, just a few miles away from where David and Betty Lou had been killed, Darlene Ferrin and Mike Mageau sat talking on a different Lover's lane area in Vallejo; Blue Rock Springs park. Their peaceful night was interrupted around Midnight when a car pulled in behind them. It's driver exited the vehicle and carrying a flashlight, walked up to the passenger side of Darlene's Corvair. WIthout warning, the man shined the flashlight into the car and opened fire shooting Darlene and Mike multiple times. He walked back to his car not realizing that his victims were still alive. When Mike cried out in pain, the shooter came back to the car and shot both Mike and Darlene additional times. He then walked back to his car and drove off leaving Darlene in Mike badly injured. First responders rushed Mike and Darlene from the scene. Darlene would not survive her injuries. While Mike was badly injured, he would recover and provide police with a few details. While police were processing the scene 40 minutes after the shooting, a caller using a phonebooth in Vallejo called the operator and reported the attack. But he wasn't a witness, he was the shooter, and he provided details of his crime. He also took credit for the 1968 Lake Herman Rd murders. But the killer was far from done, and from that moment on, using the moniker 'The Zodiac', he would terrorize the SF Bay area for the nect 5 years.

    This is part 1 of a multi-episode deep dive into one of America's greatest unsolved mysteries; the Zodiac Murders

    Cheri Jo Bates

    Cheri Jo Bates
    Episode 19 Cheri Jo Bates

    On October 30, 1966, 18 year old college Freshman Cheri Jo Bates was brutally murdered on her college campus at Riverside City College in Riverside, CA. She was savagely stabbed and her throat slashed. Her murder shocked the quiet Southern CA city. Residents wondered who would kill the pretty and popular cheerleader. Police theorized that Cheri's killer disabled her VW Bug while Cheri was in the college library and when she came out to leave and found her car disabled, the killer came along acting as a good samaritan and offering help. After gaining Cheri's trust, he led her to a dimly lit alley between two abandoned homes on school property and initiated his attack. 30 days after Cheri Jo was killed, an anonymous typed letter was sent to police & the local press claiming responsibility for Cheri Jo's murder. Police initially believed that the confession letter contained details only the killer could know, but in reality, much of what was in the letter was published in AP news stories about the case. Additional letters would come in Cheri Jo's case 6 months after her murder. This time the hand scrawled letters were sent to not only to police and the press, but cruelly, also to Cheri Jo's father.

    The Riverside Police locked onto a suspect that they felt was a jilted suitor of Cheri Jo's. He was never identified publicly, but was given the moniker 'Bob Barnett' in online discussions of the case. For years, police were interested in this suspect, but did not have enough to build a case against him. Complicating matters, he moved out of the country. When the suspect returned to the US for a visit, police swooped in and obtained his DNA for comparison against DNA in Cheri Jo's case. It seems that the DNA collected from the suspect did not match DNA in the Bates case. But that did not stop Riverside PD from pursuing a case against their favorite suspect.

    In 1970, a tipster in Riverside read a story about the infamous Zodiac Killer attacks and letters happening in the SF Bay area over 400 miles North of Riverside. Feeling that Cheri's case may be connected to the Zodiac crimes, the tipster reached out to SF Chronicle reporter Paul Avery asking him to see if the cases may be connected. Avery came away convinced that Cheri Jo's case was connected to the Zodiac case. The state's top handwriting expert Sherwood Morrill agreed that writing on letters in the Bates case matched writing in the Zodiac case. Police however were split on the conclusion. While investigators in the Zodiac case were open to the possibility that Cheri Jo Bates was an early Zodiac victim, Riverside PS dismissed the idea, instead focusing on their favorite suspect. Decades later, Cheri Jo's case and the Zodiac case remain hopelessly intertwined, and both are still unsolved.

    Was Cheri Jo an early Zodiac victim? Or was she the victim of a jilted suitor as Riverside PD suspects? In this episode, the team dives into the clues and evidence; evidence which contains DNA that's half a century old. Can this case be solved, or is it destined to remain a mystery? Tune in to this episode to find out.

    Nancy Bennallack

    Nancy Bennallack
    Episode 55 Nancy Bennallack

    Court reporter Nancy Bennallack was found brutally slain in her apartment in Sacramento in October 1970. Her killer had stabbed and cut her dozens of times, and taken precautions to ensure that he was not identified. No suspects stood out, but a possible link to another murder led many to consider whether Nancy could have been the victim of an infamous serial killer; the Zodiac. When Nancy’s murderer was finally identified by forensic genealogy, he turned out to be someone police had spoken to – someone who was hiding in plain sight. Although we know his name, the question remains – why did he kill Nancy?

    The Doodler

    The Doodler
    Episode 15 The Doodler

    In the late 1960s and well into the 1970s, the historic city of San Francisco, CA was overwhelmed by high profile crimes including the Zodiac murders, the Zebra killings, and the SLA/Patty Hurst crime spree. But one series of murders there in the mid 70s failed to grab the public's attention. From January, 1974 until September, 1975, an unknown killer, or killers, quietly targeted San Francisco's gay community. The series of murders was dubbed 'The Doodler' murders, because one potential suspect was an unidentified African-American male who used to sketch portraits of men in local gay bars, perhaps to gain their trust. Despite all attempts to ID this person, police were unsuccessful, but they did discover a strong suspect who remains unnamed publicly.

    Murders attributed to the Doodler range from half a dozen to more than a dozen. Some possible victims however were said to be lucky enough to escape from the Doodler including a famous actor, and people from the political world.

    The Doodler case officially remains unsolved. Join the Citizen Detective team as we explore the clues in this case.

    Zodiac Killer

    Zodiac Killer

    How many people have you walked by in your life that could be the zodiac killer. Imagine your next-door neighbor your friend your gardener. Who is a killer who else is a serial killer, how many murders happen that we don't know about. How many killers are walking free around right now. 

    #004 Patreon Episode 1 Zodiac Killer Suspects

    #004 Patreon Episode 1 Zodiac Killer Suspects

    The Zodiac Killer. One of the most sought-after serial killers of the 20th century—and for good reason. From the Blue Rock Springs slayings to Lake Herman Road and Lake Berryessa to Paul Stine, the Zodiac Killer mesmerized and terrified San Francisco with taunting letters to local newspapers and mysterious, unsolvable ciphers. The Zodiac Killer murders were never solved, and so it's a true crime case that persists, even today.

    There are dozens of Zodiac Killer suspects, from Arthur Leigh Allen to Ross Sullivan, Lawrence Kane, and Richard Gaikowski, and no single one has been cited as THE Zodiac suspect above all others. In this episode, I explore the three most plausible Zodiac suspects and give a brief overview of the man who terrorized San Francisco for several years in the 60s and 70s.

    This is a Patreon episode, so the regular feed will only have a brief portion of the full experience. To get the whole episode, go to https://www.patreon.com/musiccitymurder?fan_landing=true and sign up. The $3 tier will grant you access to all 90 minutes of my exploration into the Zodiac Killer case.
