Alleged Zodiac Killer Unmasked in New Book
It's been more than three decades since the puzzling case of the Zodiac Killer unfolded and now a former California Highway Patrol officer is unmasking in his new book who he believes the killer is.
In "The Zodiac Killer Cover-up, AKA The Silenced Badge," Lyndon Lafferty, 79, lays out 40 years of evidence to build an accusation that a 91-year-old recovering alcoholic and Fairfield, Calif., resident was the Zodiac Killer.
"This was a story that I inherited. I did not ask for it," Lafferty told ABC News. "I am the only person who can testify under oath that these things were absolutely true. My satisfaction is telling my story as it happened."
During the time of the murders, Lafferty claims he encountered the Zodiac Killer himself while on parole as a CHP officer in 1970. Since then, Lafferty has investigated the case along with six other law enforcement officers. In 2002, he began to compile his notes from the past 30 years and began writing his own story of the case.
"This has been our experience of over 30 years of very dedicated and consistent investigation," Lafferty said. "I have one chapter devoted to 156 circumstantial factors of evidence that related to the Zodiac case and our suspect."
