Edward Wayne Edwards

This is a site about Edward Wayne Edwards, the convicted serial killer. In particular it argues Edwards murdered Elizabeth Short (Black Dahlia) in 1947, was the Zodiac Killer, murdered Teresa Halbach and planted the remains of Laci Peterson on the shore of San Francisco Bay in April 2003.

Margot Burns who met Edwards in 1971 and Margene Morrison have supplied additional information to me,  including confessions by Edwards to multiple murders.

An important source is the book John Cameron wrote about Edwards, published in 2014 “It’s Me, Edward Wayne Edwards, The Serial Killer you Never Heard Of”.

This site is not comprehensive, it is intended to give an overview of Edwards. The emphasis here is on wrongful convictions, and some of the most crucial evidence linking Edwards to these murders.

The Timeline page gives a list of events linked to Edwards, ordered by date. The Relations page lists Edwards’ relatives, several of whom were interviewed by Cameron during the 3 year investigation he undertook.
