Did they ever catch the Colonial Parkway killer?
That was a while ago, around Williamsburg on the Peninsula in Virginia. I don't think the case was ever solved.

1. I never heard of that one
According to what I have found, no they haven't. Here is something from a site:
There is a serial killer in Virginia that they have yet to catch dubbed the "Colonial Parkway Killer." To date he has killed four couples-- a gay female couple in 1986, followed by a couple in 1987 and two in 1988. One couple is presumed dead and is still missing. The killer likes to abduct the lovers from their vehicles and kill them, leaving them on I-64 near New Kent County behind a rest area, or on the Colonial Parkway (2 sets here) in their vehicle or as the final couple---whereabouts unknown. One couple he left at a remote site at Ragged Island, off the James River near Smithfield. This killer is at large to this date.

Interesting. It is surprising that they don't bring this up anywhere. Now I am going to have to look into this one..lol, thanks.

2. You would here mention of the killer from time to time
Living in Hampton Roads, I think they were kind of afraid to claim it was a full on serial killer, but now that time has passed it doesn't matter, I guess.

3. I always think of these murders
when I stop at rest stops on I64. Makes me wonder if the perp is in prison for something else and if that's why the killing stopped.
