There is a link. You must remember how this man operates.

Is anyone aware of a book written about the Santa Rosa Hitchhiker murders? I can't seem to find one anywhere

Try "Lost Coast Highway" by Gray George. It not only covers the hitchhiker murders, but includes the Mendocino County case of Kerry Graham and Francine Trimble. Their double murder is covered in WS at http://www.websleuths.com/forums/sh...4-Forestville-24-Dec-1978&highlight=Mendocino

George strongly suspects that Jackie Ray Hovarter was responsible for at least some of these homicides.

The Santa Rosa hitchhikers were young women/girls dumped naked along country roads after being raped and throttled. There were no known surviving victims.

The Zodiac victims were of both genders, were shot, and left onsite clothed and unraped. There were surviving victims.

Zero similarities in MO. Obviously different predators.

And here's professional opinions on the subject:

And while they were at it, detectives eliminated Ted Bundy.
