HAYWARD — Detectives with the Alameda County Sheriff’s Office have uncovered new leads and reopened the case of a homicide that happened more than 30 years ago, the agency said.
Modesto native Zachary Jackson 30, was found shot to death inside his home in an unincorporated part of Hayward on June 17, 1993.
Cold case investigators have discovered “new evidence” in the killing and developed new leads based on that evidence, sheriff’s office spokesperson Capt. Tye Modeste said in a statement released Monday. Modeste said the new information has created “fresh momentum in the investigation.”
“Based on the new leads, detectives believe there are people in the community who have knowledge of those responsible for Jackson’s murder,” Modeste said. “The sheriff’s office is encouraging anyone with information regarding this case to contact us.”
