“Alphabet’’ serial killer Joseph Naso recently boasted that he murdered 22 additional women— and keeps a “Greatest Hits’’ list of victims, a fellow inmate says.
The sicko now-91-year-old, who is rotting behind bars in California, was convicted of murdering four women whose first and last names started with the same letters — earning his case an infamous “Alphabet Murders’’ nickname.
But Naso now says he actually murdered 26 women in total — and bragged about keeping a “Greatest Hits” list, according to fellow inmate Bill Noguera, who spoke to the local ABC affliliate KGO.
Naso even got furious when one of the murders on his heinous list was attributed to Rodney Alcala, a k a “The Dating Game Killer,” Noguera said, as a new documentary about the serial slayer is set to stream in September.
Noguera, who has been imprisoned since killing his girlfriend in 1988, said Naso referred to 10 of his victims as his “Greatest Hits.’’
Naso told Noguera that he murdered one of them, Pamela Lambson, 19, after pretending to be the official photographer for the Oakland A’s to lure her into having nude photos taken, the outlet said.
The dad of two and onetime Little League coach — who worked as a school photographer — raped and murdered Lambson, whom he described as the “Girl from Berkeley,” before posing her dead body against a tree in late 1977, Noquera said he was told.
“She just drove me crazy about being an entertainer, and these photographs were because she was going to be a star, and she was dating one of the players from the A’s,” Noguera quoted Naso as saying.
“So I posed her, now she’s getting all the entertainment and all the exposure she needs.”
Naso was incensed that his fellow San Quentin inmate, Alcala, was incorrectly blamed for murdering Lambson, particularly because Alcala was identified by media reports as a “professional” photographer, Noguera said.
“That really bothered him. So he often talked about how ‘they got him for one of mine,’ ” Noguera said in a separate interview with Vanity Fair.
Naso took pictures of at least six of his victims pretending to be dead before killing them.
Naso liked to drive around hunting for victims while listening to “Riders on the Storm” by The Doors because he loved the line, “There’s a killer on the road/His brain is squirming like a toad.”
He was once suspected of committing another infamous series of “Alphabet Murders,’’ but authorities said his DNA did not match that from the crime scenes.
In that case, three young girls whose first and last initials started with the same letter were kidnapped from the Rochester, NY, area and killed in the 1970s. Naso was from Rochester.
The cases have never been solved.
Noguera, who spent more than 10 years speaking with Naso, said the serial killer’s terrible hygiene forced him to hold his breath around him, even when outdoors.
Naso was convicted in 2013 of the murders of four California women: Roxene Roggasch, 18, found near Fairfax in 1977; Carmen Colon, 22, Port Costa in 1978; Pamela Parsons, 38, Yuba County in 1993; and Tracy Tafoya, 31, Yuba County in 1994.
A new documentary that includes Naso, “Death Row Confidential: Secrets of a Serial Killer,” premieres on Oxygen on Sept. 13.
