Richard Anthony Crosby, a 20-year-old white male from San Bernardino County, California, was murdered on September 29, 1978. Born September 2, 1958, in Harbor City, Los Angeles County, Crosby had been hitchhiking home from a theater in Torrance the day before his death. His body was found in San Bernardino County and investigators later linked his killing to Randy Steven Kraft.

Kraft, known as the Scorecard Killer or the Freeway Killer, was implicated in the rape, torture, and murder of numerous young men between 1972 and 1983. Crosby’s name did not appear explicitly on the coded list recovered from Kraft, but circumstantial evidence and patterns in Kraft’s methods led authorities to connect Crosby’s death to him.

What details about Crosby’s final movements or the persons he encountered that night might still help clarify how he came to be killed?
