Robert Domingos and his fiancee Linda Edwards were killed Tuesday, June 4, 1963. Domingos and Edwards were students at Lompoc High School and were participating in "Senior Ditch Day," when the murder took place. They were killed on a beach near Lompoc, California. Domingos and Edwards were off in a remote area by themselves when attacked. Edwards was forced to bind Domingos with a rope. They tried to flee and were shot by the attacker. Domingos was shot 11 times in the back and Edwards was shot 9 times in the chest. The weapon was a .22 caliber semi-automatic. The bodies were then placed in a nearby shack, Edwards on top of Domingos, with her bathing suit cut open. The attacker then repeatedly tried to set the shack on fire but was unsuccessful. There were no witnesses. Because of the remote location their bodies were not found until the following night. The time of attack is unknown, though thought to be in the late afternoon. The murder of Robert Domingos and Linda Edwards is case number 73855.

There is evidence that suggests that both individuals were killed by the Zodiac. There are striking similarities between the Domingos/Edwards attack and that of the Lake Berryessa attack by the Zodiac. Both cases were motiveless assaults and took place at a remote location. Some of the similarities include having the female victim tie up the male victim and using pre-cut lenghts of rope. The Domingos/Edwards case is conclusively the work of the Zodiac.
