From October 1973 to April 1974, members of a Black Muslim extremist cult called the "Death Angels" terrorized San Francisco, randomly targeting and killing white victims. The murders left 15 dead and 8 wounded. Police called the case "Zebra" after the radio channel assigned to the task force. Seven men were convicted in 1976 in one of the longest criminal trials in California history.
