Timeline

1930

Lake Wellington Headley (August 31, 1930 – May 15, 1992) was a private detective and writer who made a name for himself by being hired to investigate high-profile crimes.

Crimes included the Wounded Knee incident, Patty Hearst kidnapping, court-martial of Clayton Lonetree, the murder of Vicki Morgan, and the Don Bolles car bombing.

In a series of true crime books, Headley wrote about his investigations.

Lake Headley was born in Indiana.

He attended Goshen High School in Indiana.

1948

In the yearbook for 1948, at around age 16, he stated that he wished to be a lawyer.

1962

He began his career as a police officer in Las Vegas, but his killing of a suspect when a young officer prompted him to quit policing and become a p.i. In 1962, he left the force, where he was a detective, to become one of the first private detectives in Las Vegas.

He went on to work for thirty years in the field, and was considered one of the best.

Los Angeles prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi called Headley "the best private investigator on earth."

During the Patty Hearst kidnapping saga, two of the families of SLA members, including Willie Wolfe's father, contracted Headley to investigate the matter.

Headley concluded his investigation, and filed a sworn affidavit of his findings.

Among these included:

"That Patricia Campbell Hearst and her parents disagreed bitterly over Patricia's political and personal relations. That a love affair between a black man and Patricia Hearst did take place prior to her relationship with her fiancé Steven Weed. That Mrs. Randolph A. Hearst subjected her daughter to extreme pressure to change her personal and political relationships."

1974

On May 4, 1974, Headley, along with freelance writer Donald Freed, held a press conference in San Francisco.

They presented 400 pages of documentation of their findings, some of which included:

On May 17, 1974, The New York Times ran the story of DeFreeze and the Los Angeles Police Department.

However, the story was largely overlooked due to this being the day of the shoot out and conflagration that killed DeFreeze and five other members of the SLA.

In a book he co-wrote with freelance writer, William Hoffman, Vegas P.I.: The Life and Times of America's Greatest Detective, he presented well-documented evidence that Donald DeFreeze, was a police informant and an agent provocateur.

Headley also uncovered evidence that, in the house fire in LA that killed six members of the SLA, at least one of the suspects was shot in the back while trying to surrender.

Headley's wife was Terri Lee Yoder.

1981

She was originally his assistant and they married in 1981

1992

Headley died of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in 1992.
