The victims, many of whom struggled with addiction and poverty, were primarily targeted along a specific stretch of Division Avenue. While a major breakthrough occurred decades later with the DNA-linked arrest of truck driver Gary Artman for the death of Sharon Hammock, many cases remain open. The report explores the profound grief of the victims' families, who have waited thirty years for closure and justice. It also examines whether multiple serial killers may have been operating simultaneously, highlighting the potential role of long-haul truckers in these crimes. Ultimately, the source serves as a plea for public awareness and information to help solve the remaining cold cases.
