  • This one will probably never be solved. If the guy that did it is still alive, he unfortunately hasn't said anything.

    • Given how ruthless the FCC is, the best we can hope for at this point is a deathbed confession.

    • Sounds like there's not much to the mystery. They know how it was done and where it was filmed. Just don't know who did it, which at this point almost 40 years later will probably never come out. The article headline saying it continues to baffle authorities to this day seems a little disingenuous. I doubt any authorities really give a shit at this point.
