Once the composite sketch is released in October, the tips start pouring in. The
00:00:06
first big one is called in by an anonymous woman who recognizes the guy in the sketch. She says he lives in the
00:00:11
East Bay and his name is such and such. And I'm only being vague because I couldn't let the name slip if I wanted
00:00:17
to. It has never been released on or off the record. I mean, the one thing I will
00:00:22
say about this investigation is like they truly have like kept identities under wrap for decades. is almost like
00:00:27
very impressive if I didn't want to know so bad. Now, what I do know is that it is apparently a common name. So,
00:00:34
initially the tip isn't super useful. Although, to be perfectly honest, I don't even think it reaches Guilford and
00:00:41
Sanders. Like, it just gets lost in the shuffle. I think so, because the woman comes back like it pisses her off
00:00:47
because like by 10 days go by, she hasn't gotten contacted. She feels like nothing is happening. So, she's like,
00:00:52
"My tip must not have been taken seriously." So, she calls again. mad. And this time she not only gives his
00:00:58
name, but she gives his address, his age, his freaking license plate number. You know, not all heroes wear capes.
00:01:05
Truly. So, this second message does reach Guilford and Sanders, who put the guy under immediate surveillance. They
00:01:13
don't approach him just yet. Instead, they start putting together a profile, which seems like the right move, I
00:01:19
think. And here's where things get wild.
