A Pennsylvania prosecutor says a member of the cultlike group known as Zizians has been charged in the 2022 killing of her parents, and authorities don't believe she acted alone. Delaware County District Attorney Tanner Rouse said Wednesday that 33-year-old Michelle Zajko faces murder, burglary and conspiracy charges. Rita and Richard Zajko were shot in their Chester Heights home on New Year’s Eve, Michelle's birthday. Rouse says if Zajko didn't pull the trigger, she arranged for it. But she has denied killing her parents. She's been jailed since February 2025, when she was arrested with two other members of the group in Maryland.
