The Freeway Killer was a collective epithet given by the media and the police to what the media initially believed was a single serial killer claiming young male victims, predominantly in California during the 1970s and early 1980s, and who often discarded the victims' bodies alongside freeways.
However, there turned out to be multiple Freeway Killers who operated independently of each other but just happened to select similar victims from similar locations.

Looking out of the train window, a witness saw a large man striking a young woman, then forcing both his hands on her shoulders so she couldn’t get back up. The witness opened the train window and heard the young woman screaming: “Please, don’t! Please don’t!” The train passenger shouted for the attacker to stop, but the train was already moving. By the time police arrived at the scene, there was no trace of the crime. Then, three days later they found Carmen’s body. For years the case that was witnessed by multiple train passengers remained unsolved, but thanks to the determination of a prosecutor and a cold case team – it was solved 40 years later.
