Heidi Cruz said "it's amazing" that people play up the Zodiac Killer meme.

Heidi Cruz responded to an Internet meme that claims her husband, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), is the Zodiac Killer, saying, "There's a lot of garbage out there."

“Well, I’ve been married to him for 15 years and I know pretty well who he is, so it doesn’t bother me at all," Heidi Cruz told Yahoo of her husband, one of three candidates left in the 2016 Republican presidential primary.

Cruz told Yahoo "it's amazing" that people play up the Internet meme, blaming its popularity on the media.

In fact, Ted Cruz is not the Zodiac Killer, an unidentified murderer who targeted several people in Northern California in the 1960s and '70s. Cruz was born two years after the first murders took place.
