Frank Ringi, a well-known San Francisco hair stylist who ran a high-profile salon and appeared on television for makeovers, was shot and killed at his salon in the TransAmerica Building on May 27, 1987. The attack also included an attempted killing of Tom Truffi, Ringi’s former partner.

Investigators later linked the killing to Jonathan Preston Haynes after his 1993 arrest in Illinois for the murder of plastic surgeon Dr. Martin Sullivan. Haynes, described as a 34-year-old chemist and reputed white supremacist, confessed to killing Ringi and said he targeted hair colorists, makers of tinted contact lenses, and plastic surgeons because he believed they promoted a fake Aryan beauty. Haynes faced charges in California for Ringi’s murder and the attempted murder of Truffi while also facing murder charges in Illinois.

Does anyone have memories of Ringi’s salon or the TransAmerica Building area in 1987, or information that could shed light on the case?
