The Yistaria Rapist
The Yistaria rapist was wearing a ski mask and holding an axe. He threatened to kill her if she didn't do what he said. When the phone rang, he ripped it from the wall before running out of the house. A tracking dog followed him through the street behind his victim's home. Police found nothing else missing but two real estate signs lying in the backyard. The survivor described how his eyes were at the same level as her nose. Detectives determined he was in fact 5'9" - 6'0" tall. They have not been able to find any other victims since this attack.
