The Colonial Parkway is a scenic route that connects Yorktown and Jamestown, two historic sites in Virginia. The parkway is designed to preserve the natural and cultural landscape of the area and prohibits commercial vehicles and tolls. Along the parkway, drivers can enjoy the views of the York and James Rivers and the seasonal changes in the vegetation. Bill Thomas, whose sister Cathy was one of the victims of the unsolved Colonial Parkway murders, has been advocating for justice and awareness of the case.
According to Crimemuseum.org, a serial killer is suspected of murdering eight people on the parkway, which is under federal jurisdiction. The FBI may join the investigations as well. The killer targeted couples or individuals who parked their cars in or near lover's lane areas. The victims were not robbed or sexually assaulted, suggesting that the killer had a different motive. The police have interviewed 150 suspects, but none of them matched the profile of the killer.
