Cal Jackson (born April 3rd, 1978, Calvin William Jackson), also known as the Cross National Killer, is a Zamastanian murderer, bank robber, burglar, arsonist, and kidnapper. Believed to be one of the most-prolific serial killers in Zamastanian history, Cal Jackson is confirmed to have murdered at least 23 people, but is suspected in nearly 80 murders between 1999 and 2023. He was arrested shortly after his final proven murder in November 2023, confessed to his crimes and plead guilty, avoiding a trial, and was sentenced to life imprisonment.
Jackson targeted random people all across Zamastan to avoid detection with weeks of planning before he committed a particular crime. He specifically frequented campgrounds and isolated locations. He claimed to only use guns when he had to and preferred strangulation. He claimed to not kill children or parents of children, primarily because of his daughter, whom he feared finding out about him and his crimes. Police and ZIS investigators are skeptical of this claim. He would create 'murder kits' and hide them around the country during family, business, and personal trips. At a later date during what he called 'murder trips', he would recover the kits and use them in his spree. On his murder trips, he kept his mobile phone turned off and paid for items with cash. Unlike most serial killers, he did not have a victim profile, stating that he chose victims randomly. He had no connections to any of his known victims, and Jackson confessed they were 'crimes of opportunity'.
