Police: Malvo won’t discuss claim of more victims
ROCKVILLE, Md. — Police in Maryland say convicted D.C. sniper Lee Boyd Malvo won’t talk to detectives about his claim that he and his partner had additional victims across the country.
In a phone interview for A&E’s “Aftermath With William Shatner,” Malvo said he and his partner, John Allen Muhammad, shot 42 people in 2002. The pair had been linked to 27 shootings across the country, including 10 fatal attacks in the Washington area in 2002.
Montgomery County Assistant Police Chief Drew Tracy wanted to examine the truth of Malvo’s claims, but he says Malvo won’t meet with detectives. Malvo also won’t give them permission to talk to a psychiatrist who says Malvo told him the same information.
Malvo is serving a life sentence with no parole in Virginia. Muhammad was executed in Virginia last year.
