Independent group claims it solved the mystery behind the identity of the Zodiac Killer as law enforcement investigates – By Sarah Moon and Cheri Mossburg (CNN) / Oct 6 2021
(CNN)Law enforcement agencies said they are still investigating the Zodiac Killer case as an independent group of cold-case investigators came forward Wednesday to claim they had solved the mystery of who was behind the decades-old serial murders.
The Case Breakers, a team of 40 former law enforcement investigators, said they identified the man they believe is the Zodiac Killer using new physical and forensic evidence and information from eyewitnesses, according to a press release.
The group also filed court affidavits and secured decades of pictures from the man’s former darkroom, Case Breakers said. They named the man in the release, saying they believe he passed away in 2018.
CNN’s attempts to reach out to the family members of the named individual have been unsuccessful.
The Zodiac Killer is believed to be responsible for at least five murders in Northern California from 1968 to 1969.
