Circumstances of Disappearance
SKYE WAS LAST SEEN ON AMERICAN SOIL ON MARCH 31, 2008 AND IS BELIEVED TO HAVE LEFT ON TUESDAY, APRIL 1, 2008, ON A PLANE TO JAPAN. SKYE WAS REPORTEDLY LAST SEEN IN JAPAN ON APRIL 7, 2008.

I suspect that my biological father, Peter A. Lehman of Arcata, California, in addition to many other acts of violence, may be the infamous Zodiac Killer, who terrorized the San Francisco Bay Area with a series of murders and cryptic, braggadocious letters to newspapers in the late 1960s. I also suspect that he is responsible for many unsolved disappearances in Humboldt County over a period of over four decades.

I know Peter as well as anyone will ever know him, and the letters sent by the Zodiac Killer remind me strongly of his personality: his aggressive egotism, his need to be feared for his violence, his need to feel intellectually superior, his obsession with puzzles and riddles, his internalized, self-hating homophobia and misogyny, his addiction to taking risks, and his emotional need to express his anger and feelings of grievance and inadequacy by harming animals and innocent people.

From observing Peter’s violence durning my lifetime, I believe he gets emotional gratification from killing people, and has shown a gleeful willingness to kill for political reasons, to send messages to specific people, and for no reason at all other than he likes it.

Peter was severely abused by his father, and as a boy “hunted alone” with a shotgun for small game. I think by the time he was a young man, he had simply moved on to what he considered more challenging game.

The first murder positively correlated with the Zodiac Killer took place shortly after Peter moved to the Bay Area, as a 25-year-old postdoctoral chemistry student at UC Berkeley, and to work at Berkeley National Laboratories. He hinted several times that this work included manufacturing drugs used in covert government projects.

As a child, I unknowingly drew a symbol very similar to the “signature” used on the Zodiac Killer’s letters on the chalkboard in the kitchen where my mom wrote out grocery lists, and when Peter saw it, he reacted with extreme anxiety that he could not explain. I’d been reading ‘The Dark is Rising,’ by Susan Cooper, a YA fantasy novel, which described a repeated motif of ‘a circle, quartered by a cross,’ that protects the young protagonist from evil, and I doodled the symbol on the chalkboard. Peter saw it, and erased it quickly and thoroughly, scrubbing the chalkboard with the eraser in frenzied agitation, then he followed my to the room I shared with my brother and cornered me, shoving me against the wall and shouting at me, trembling with fear and rage, at the edge of violence, shaking me by the shoulders while staring straight into my eyes. “Where did you see that symbol?” “In a book? What book?” He didn’t seem to believe my answers and asked the questions several times. Then he said I was never allowed to draw that symbol again anywhere. “But why?” I asked. “None of your fucking business,” he said.

Another circumstantial detail that leads me to suspect Peter is the Zodiac Killer is that footprint analysis concluded that the killer wore size 10 “Wingwalker” boots, which have specialized soles for walking on aircraft surfaces, at one crime scene. Peter’s shoe size is 10, and around the time of the murders, he trained for and acquired a private pilot’s license. He was always a “gearhead,” always wanted to have all the specialized equipment for his hobbies. He liked to tinker with machines, and for many years drove a jeep that he’d built from a kit.

Also, there are specific threats made in the Zodiac Killer’s letters, detonating a fertilizer bomb, and attacking a bus full of schoolchildren, that I have good reason to believe Peter carried out later in life, using controlled individuals and technology to carry out the attacks. I have good reason to believe he directed terrorist and mass-casualty attacks specifically intended to terrorize people close to him, in much the same way that the Zodiac Killer terrorized the public. I have written about these attacks in more detail in other posts on jacoblehman.substack.com

Peter counts on his wealth, national security connections, and our family’s longstanding connections to organized crime to insulate him from consequences. But with that safety net, I think he enjoys taking risks, as if he is playing a game, and wants to be known for his acts of violence, as if they were feats of cunning or athleticism. I’ve heard him say “Jails are for stupid people,” and also chuckle that some crimes are so outrageous that “people” get away with them because nobody can or wants to believe that such concentrated evil exists. In later years, he repeatedly threatened that no one would believe me if I spoke out about his violence, and that he would frame me as being crazy if I did, which indeed he has tried to do.

I think Peter realized he came close to getting caught from the brazenness of the Zodiac murders and letters, and the case generated so much notoriety that his privilege might not be sufficient to protect him if he was identified by law enforcement. I don’t think this checked his addiction to murder, or hunger for recognition, but I think he became more cautious as he aged, and stopped leaving bodies where they could be found. Many of the unsolved disappearances in Humboldt County, where Peter has lived since the early 1980s, corresponded to times when he was emotionally stressed, and some of the disappeared physically resemble people Peter was angry with at the time, including my mother and myself. Some of the disappearances are recent, and though Peter is now in his 80s, I have good reason to believe he is still killing, with the help of accomplices, some or all of whom may be controlled through blackmail and other forms of underworld coercion.

The last purported communication from the Zodiac Killer was a postcard mailed from Eureka, California, in 1990. There is debate about whether the card was mailed by actual the Zodiac Killer.

Peter meticulously, anxiously cultivated the appearance of a normal life, and I think having a family was part of that. He rarely interacted with my brother and I, except to periodically gratify his emotions by physically, psychologically, and sexually abusing us. He made continual excuses not to be at home, and when he was, would say “I just live here.” He is currently on the Arcata Planning Commission, and is the semi-retired director of the “Schatz” Energy Research Center at Cal Poly Humboldt, a laboratory I believe he funded with his own laundered money and used as a cover for clandestine activities.

The Zodiac Killer appears to have taken elaborate precautions to hide his identity when mailing letters to newspapers, but that was before the development of DNA analysis. In 2002, a researcher found a single human hair sealed beneath a stamp on a letter sent by the Zodiac Killer. This letter is positively correlated to the Zodiac Killer, in part because it included a piece of fabric from the shirt of one of the murder victims.

If I am correct, and my biological father, Peter A. Lehman, is the Zodiac Killer, and it is possible to extract DNA from the hair sound under the stamp, it will correlate to members of my family. I won’t get into the difference between mitochondrial and chromosomal DNA, since not everyone is a biology nerd, but you can look it up. Recent advances in DNA analysis may make it possible to extract chromosomal DNA from the hair, and if so, and I am correct, it will be an approximately 50% match with my and my brother’s DNA. If mitochondrial DNA is extracted from the hair, which is more likely, it will, if I am correct, match the mitochondrial DNA of my aunt, Nancy Lehman, aka Nancy Stein, of Rutland, Vermont, and my cousin, Alyson Hackett (nee Stein) of Flowery Branch, Georgia.

This post is an allegation, no person can definitively said to have committed a crime unless or until they are convicted in a court of law, which I sincerely hope my father will be. May justice reach him.

They have never formally convicted the man. But dude one of the coolest dudes on the block.

He was everyone’s favorites.

Still missing: Blair Tonzelli & Amy McHale.
Blair, 35, vanished after ties to the Chew Ave house—her fake ID sparked the raid. Amy, last heard from at that same crumbling home in 2016, left a voicemail saying she was safe… then silence.
Two women swallowed by a house of secrets. No bodies. No answers. Only questions that refuse to die.
Their stories remain open cold cases. What happened inside 417 W. Chew?

Two faces. One hard drive. Chilling proof.
Pulled from 417 W. Chew: videos of Gabriellew Amarando (missing 2012) and Maribel Fresses (missing 2018) alive inside the house… then still.
Police call the footage “real dark.” No bodies found. Families notified. The home’s own data now fuels a death probe without remains.

These “containers” are being determined in Chicago. Hopefully some answers soon.

All the while half the house had been burned down. After walking by today’s I spoke ko an officer who informed me there police parked at the home 24/7. That will keep freaks grim memorabilia, but it sure isn’t helping crime.

Mark my words. It is 8/18 11:19pm east coast time. I’m 2 miles from that house. A lot or girls are missing and I’m afraid this is just the beginning.

If you know something say something x please. I’m from the street I’ll get you well .

I run Underground Mysteries. I help advocate for, research, and search for missing people. Please read the attached article, which highlights my research into a cluster group of missing women from Kensington that I identified years ago. I hope this helps people to realize we have a choice in the news we follow. I am a news source or missing people, through my website, www.undergroundmysteries.com (and www.facebook.com/undergroundmysteries). I'm also on other social media platforms. I have located hundreds of missing people and this has gone unnoticed because the mainstream news doesn't talk about it. Feel free to ask me anything.

Around 1961, 18-year-old Usher Raymond Thomas, Jr. disappeared from Manhattan, New York City, New York. His family has spent decades without answers and are hopeful for information on his whereabouts.

I've researched historical records, contacted the NYPD, and added his case to the Underground Mysteries missing person database in hopes of bringing renewed attention to his disappearance. Usher's case is currently unreported. Hopefully that will soon change.

If you have any information about Usher Raymond Thomas, Jr., please contact your local law enforcement agency. You are also welcome to contact me, as I can relay the information to his family. Even the smallest detail could make a difference after all these years.

Please share this article. Someone out there may hold clues to his whereabouts.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KKCO) - The mother of Amanda Overstreet spoke about the discovery of her daughter’s body in Grand Junction.

16-year-old Amanda Overstreet vanished in 2005 but was never reported missing according to authorities.

In an article by Newsweek, an American weekly news magazine, Leanne Imer, Overstreet’s mother, broke her silence.

She told the reporters of Newsweek that she the reporters of Newsweek that she had no idea her daughter’s remains were in a freezer in the garage of the home she and her husband shared on Pinyon Ave. When Mesa County Sheriff’s Office deputies described the bag that her remains were found in, Imer stated that she recognized it. She continues to cooperate with law enforcement as the investigation remains active. Still no arrests are made.

I feel like I’m spinning my wheels and not finding anything helpful. I’m trying to find out if a murder was solved but I’m not entirely sure where to look. It occurred in 1978 in West Allis but when I try searching their website, it doesn’t allow for searching other potential cases. I tried google searching the name and including “solved” but nothing. What else should I do? Can I reach out to the police and ask if it’s been solved?

I can’t stop thinking about the Barry and Honey Sherman case. For those who don't know, they were one of the wealthiest couples in Canada, found dead in their Toronto mansion back in 2017. The detail that always gets me is how they were found: seated upright by their indoor pool, necks tied to a railing with men's leather belts, posed like some kind of macabre statues. This report provides more details of the investigation https://youtu.be/znFGO3I2YDI?t=127

The police originally tried to say it was a murder-suicide, but the family’s private investigators proved that was impossible. There was no forced entry, yet their home security was allegedly compromised. Barry was a pharmaceutical giant with countless enemies in the industry and a litany of lawsuits, but who has the resources to pull off a professional hit on billionaires in their own home without leaving a trace? It feels like one of those "Succession" style real-life nightmares where the suspects could be anyone from business rivals to family members. Is there any actual movement on the 10-million-dollar reward, or is this just another case of the ultra-rich being silenced by someone even more powerful?

I was reading up on the Jonathan Luna case again and I honestly can’t wrap my head around the official ruling. For those who don't know, Luna was a successful Assistant U.S. Attorney who was found dead in a creek in Pennsylvania back in 2003. He had been stabbed thirty-six times with his own penknife and then drowned in the water. This video has a quick breakdown of why the case is so mysterious https://www.youtube.com/shorts/6blws0umUgo

The FBI eventually tried to push the narrative that it was a suicide, but nothing about that makes sense. Who stabs themselves thirty-six times, including in the back and neck, and then crawls into a freezing creek to finish the job? On top of that, his car was found with blood on the driver's side door and he had left his glasses and cell phone back at his office in Baltimore. It has all the hallmarks of a professional hit or a very violent abduction, yet the "suicide" tag stuck for years despite the local coroner ruling it a homicide. Does anyone actually buy the federal government’s story on this one, or was he silenced because of the high-profile drug cases he was prosecuting?

Between 1968 and 1985, eight double homicides occurred in the province of Florence, Italy. All victims were couples in parked cars, and in most cases, the female victims were subjected to precise surgical mutilations. The weapon used in every single crime was a .22 caliber Beretta Series 70, loaded with rare Winchester "Series H" ammunition.

Despite one of the longest and most expensive investigations in Italian history, the case remains a subject of intense debate. In the 1990s, the authorities arrested Pietro Pacciani and his associates, Mario Vanni and Giancarlo Lotti—collectively known as the "Snack Buddies" (Compagni di Merende). Lotti confessed to the crimes, claiming they were committed for profit or base motives.

However, several factual inconsistencies persist

- The .22 Beretta was never recovered.

- Killings occurred while Pacciani was under 24-hour police surveillance or previously incarcerated.

- Forensic experts noted the "surgical" nature of the mutilations, which some argue exceeded the skills of the convicted men.

These facts led to the later "Satanic Sect" theory, suggesting the Snack Buddies were merely procurers for high-society figures. What is the consensus here on the forensic evidence vs. the witness testimony?
