3 Girls. Matching Initials. One Unsolved Serial Murder Case.
In this gripping episode of Crime Stands Still, true crime author and criminal pathology expert Kerrie Drobaninvestigates the chilling mystery of The Alphabet Killer—a predator who terrorized Rochester, New York in the 1970s.

Each victim shared a haunting pattern: first and last names with matching initials, and each body dumped in a town that began with the same letter. The killer's precision and ritualistic pattern stunned investigators—yet he was never caught.

🔎 Experts have long drawn eerie parallels between this case and the Zodiac Killer:

  • Both targeted young victims.

  • Both left behind cryptic, taunting patterns.

  • Both vanished without a trace.

  • And both cases remain unsolved, despite national media attention and decades of investigation.

Was this killer playing a twisted alphabet game—or sending a coded message like Zodiac?
Did the same killer strike again under a different name?

With forensic breakdowns, psychological profiling, and insights only Droban can provide, this episode peels back the layers of one of America’s most unsettling unsolved serial murder cases.

If you're fascinated by cold cases, serial killer theories, unsolved crimes, and forensic psychology, don’t miss this one.
