Randy Jacobson was a 35-year-old white musician and drifter from San Francisco who vanished in October 1984. His disappearance was later connected to Leonard Lake and Charles Ng after Jacobson’s remains were found buried on Lake’s remote Wilseyville property. Investigators recovered Lake’s possession of Jacobson’s bank card at the time of Lake’s arrest, linking Jacobson to the site where multiple human remains were uncovered.

The Wilseyville property yielded a number of shallow graves and bodies buried under structures such as a chicken coop. Investigators also found five-gallon buckets holding victims’ personal effects, including identification and diaries written by Lake that described his fantasies and plans. Lake was arrested in San Francisco for shoplifting after identifying himself with the name of a victim, Robin Stapley, and died by suicide in custody after ingesting a concealed cyanide capsule. Charles Ng fled to Canada, was later apprehended and extradited, and faced charges tied to the killings, including those connected to Jacobson.

Did anyone who knew Randy in San Francisco or saw him in October 1984 come forward with information about his last movements?
