To this day, the real identity of the 'Doodler' is not known and the mystery has inspired citizen detectives around the globe to try to decipher whodunit.

Police Department on Thursday announced they were upping the reward to finding the "Doodler" serial killer while also linking another unsolved homicide to the mystery suspect who appeared to target gay men.

The Doodler is believed to be responsible for the violent assaults of several gay, white men in the 1970s as well as possibly six murders. He would often sketch strangers he met in local bars and use the drawings to strike up conversations with the men. He’d leave with his sketch subject from the bar, have sex with them, and later stab the man to death, police and witnesses have said.

San Francisco community reacts to dozens of antisemitic fliers left in Pacific Heights neighborhood'The fliers lean on old antisemitic tropes that blame the Jewish community for the ills of society,' said ADL's Deputy Regional Director Teresa Drenick. The fliers blamed Jews for the entire 'COVID agenda.' Has anyone else noticed the star they put on there is a pentagram, not a Star of David? Note the neighborhoods they canvassed are rich and perceived to be safe. My guess is 'safe' is the reason. Antisemites: ignorant and scared. Assumption confirmed. Covid cure open for business. When you're tired of getting sick from cold flu pneumonia and covid come visit me AntiSemitismIsEvil

'Crazy system': San Francisco supervisors vote to extend eviction warning for tenantsA San Francisco mother is facing eviction after falling behind in rent due to her eye surgery, and her 7-year-old daughter is afraid they'll end up homeless next week. To give renters like Mercedes more time to prevent losing their homes, the board of supervisors voted to give a longer warning period to renters. I stopped renting. This is ridiculous. this is a crazy system. does this apply to owners paying the city property taxes too? Landlords need to hold properties off the market until this bullshit ends.
