The Freeway Phantom

In the heart of the 1970s, a shadowy figure known as the Freeway Phantom instilled a reign of terror in Washington, D.C. From April 1971 to September 1972, this unidentified serial killer is believed to have brutally ended the lives of six young African-American girls and a woman. Their bodies were discovered in various locations across the District of Columbia and Prince George's County, Maryland, often near highways, hence the killer's nickname. Despite the passage of over half a century, the identity of the Freeway Phantom remains shrouded in mystery, making him one of the most enigmatic figures in the annals of American crime.
