The Zizians, led by 34-year-old Jack “Ziz” LaSota—who uses female pronouns and allegedly faked a death in 2022—are linked to at least six deaths in three states. The group, composed mainly of young, intelligent computer scientists, is known for its radical veganism and anarchist beliefs. Members often wear long black coats and have been involved in protests and violent confrontations, including an attack on a landlord in California and the double murder of a couple in Pennsylvania.
