Barbara Ann Taylor was 28 when she was murdered in San Francisco County on March 30, 1975. She was born May 23, 1946, in Santa Clara County.

In 1994 Ricardo Silvio Caputo, an Argentine national also known as The Lady Killer, surrendered and confessed to multiple murders, including Taylor’s. Caputo had escaped from a state mental hospital in 1974 after having been found incompetent to stand trial for a 1971 murder; his movements after that escape reportedly included violent crimes across several jurisdictions.
