The 'Zebra' murder spree and San Francisco Hall of Justice proceedings

From late 1973 into 1974, a series of racially motivated attacks and murders in San Francisco known as the 'Zebra' killings prompted a major police task force and federal involvement. Multiple suspects were arrested in early 1974 and subsequent criminal proceedings, arraignments, and related hearings for the cases were conducted at San Francisco courts and the Hall of Justice. The investigations and trials had a significant impact on policing and community relations in the city.
