The DoodlerA sixth victim? And maybe more the outside Bay Area The deeper the investigation goes, the more questions pile up. One thing is fairly certain: The Doodler may have claimed another victim at Lands End. His name: Warren Andrews. Head smashed by a rock. April 27, 2021 4:00 a.m. I’m with San Francisco cold-case detective Dan Cunningham. We’re poking through bushes near Lands End, where we think the Doodler killed a man. We’ve done this before. We find it under overhanging brush. A grassy flat spot. Well away from the nearest road. A place for a quick sex hookup. The only sounds waves and birds. But in April 1975, for a few moments, there were horrible sounds. A rock slammed into a head. A tree branch striking flesh. ....
The DoodlerPossible confession sparks search for a psychiatrist In late 1975, a psychiatrist contacted San Francisco police to say he knew who the Doodler serial killer was. Nearly half a century later, his identity has been maddeningly difficult to pin down. What answers would he have? April 20, 2021 4:00 a.m. The psychiatrist was the breakthrough. Said he had a confession. And a name. San Francisco homicide inspectors Rotea Gilford and Earl Sanders thought they were about to nab the Doodler, solving a string of murders. Looking back to late 1975, it seemed like the handcuffs were about to come out. The shrink’s therapy session notes presumably had their suspect copping to being the guy who stabbed Doodler victims to death on Ocean Beach. Then there was the police sketch. The suspect apparently resembled the one generated by attack survivors that summer. ....
The DoodlerSketch snares suspects, but cases far from solved A San Francisco beat cop thought he’d nabbed the Doodler on a lucky hunch no such luck. And then an explosive new lead emerged. April 13, 2021 4:00 a.m. Something about the guy was hinky, as cops like to say. He was walking on Castro Street and looked like he had something to hide. Held his arm stiff against his side over a bulge in his long pea coat. Officer James Andre Boles was on foot patrol and zeroed in. It was Nov. 20, 1975, and everyone at police headquarters was talking about the Doodler. How he’d picked up five men over the previous year and a half at gay bars, drawing their likenesses before knifing them to death at hideaway sex hookup spots. ....

And a victim lives to generate a suspect sketch April 6, 2021 4:00 a.m. The summer sun was sinking low when a hiker found the body. Decayed. The coroner determined the man had been lying there about 10 days. Stabbed and slashed to death. San Francisco police detective Dan Cunningham and I retraced that hiker’s steps recently. We wanted to stand where he stood 45 years ago. At Lands End, where shrub-studded cliffs drop to the sea and the Golden Gate Bridge shimmers from the northeast. On a slope, across the road and down from the 16th hole of the Lincoln Golf Course. ....
