If you planned to get any work done tomorrow, do yourself a favor and just get that thought out of your head right now. Police from two separate jurisdictions have announced that they believe they are ready to confirm the identities of two different suspected serial killers.

In Eastlake, Ohio police say they have learned the true identity of Joseph Newton Chandler III. According to a Cleveland Fox News affiliate, police found Chandler had committed suicide in 2002, however, quickly discovered that the real Joseph Newton Chandler III had died in a car accident with his parents in 1945. Investigators believe that Chandler assumed the identity sometime in 1975 while living in South Dakota. Marshals say they will be releasing Chandler's true identity and other circumstances surrounding the case on June 22, 2018, at 1 pm EST. While no one knows for certain, some have speculated that Chandler could potentially be the long-hunted Zodiac Killer.

Meanwhile, in San Francisco, California, CNN reports that police are close to identifying a previously unknown serial killer dubbed "The Doodler." The Doodler was a man who terrorized San Francisco's gay community throughout the mid-1970s. Police repeatedly questioned one suspect in the case but had no concrete evidence to make an arrest. Police say they suspect the man of butchering up to as many as 14 people, all gay men.
