May 21, 1939 - Roger Kibbe
Operating along California's interstate corridor in the late 1980s, Kibbe preyed on vulnerable women he encountered on or near freeways, a pattern that gave investigators both a geographic thread to follow and a reflection of how transient infrastructure could be exploited. His method of victim selection — targeting those stranded or traveling alone on major highways — made the case a notable study in the intersection of opportunistic violence and suburban geography. He was convicted of multiple murders and died in prison.
