I don't remember his name, but that same guy wrote a book called, "The Black Dahlia Avenger" and it's very good.

He also thinks his father and his circle of friends maybe be responsible for other killings as well.

The house that he alleges the murder took place in is a very famous house in LA called, "The Franklin House." It's in a ton of movies and commercials. The contestants on America's Next Top Model lived there for a season. Now every time I see it, I think, "That's the murder house!"

Yes, his name is Steve Hodel and he is amazing. He was a decorated LAPD detective, now retired, who saw some photos in his late father’s possession of a woman he thought might be the famous Black Dahlia. As it turns out now, it is entirely possible that the photos never were of Elizabeth Short, the Black Dahlia, but Hodel’s inspiration to find out more about the famous unsolved murder, as well as his father’s AMAZING underworld and prominent life in 1940s L.A., makes for the absolute best true crime story ever written.

And he has solved the Black Dahlia case. It really was his own father.

If any of you like true crime, you must read this book. (The Black Dahlia Avenger - and get the latest version with the most facts. Steve is working on the second book.)
