## Resource

The San Francisco Police Department has increased the reward to $250,000 and released an age-progression drawing regarding the Doodler, an active serial killer from the mid-1970s. This offender specifically targeted gay men met at local venues, earning the moniker because he sketched animal figures on napkins while conversing with a survivor. Although authorities questioned a strong suspect in 1976, the individual was never charged, leaving the unsolved homicides open for decades. Experts note that these brutal crimes initially received minimal media coverage due to the social prejudice and prevailing laws against homosexual individuals during that era. Law enforcement continues to urge the public to submit any relevant details through a dedicated tip line to finally achieve justice.
