In the LA Times letter the Zodiac Killer takes credit for recent Riverside activity that has hit the newspapers, and that happens to be the Cheri Jo Bates connection, but how many victims were never attributed to him, and how many people exactly is “a hell of a lot more?” Manson Family is back in the news as an attorney goes missing, more victims, and Jack is showing his presence in South Lake Tahoe.

True Seekers and true crime junkies.
Welcome back to another episode of Hit the
7
00:00:57.320 --> 00:01:03.760
Roadjack Finding the Zodiac. Have some
updates, some misstatements we're going to clear
8
00:01:03.879 --> 00:01:07.159
up today, I guess if you
will. We're going to cover a little
9
00:01:07.159 --> 00:01:08.879
bit from last week, but we're
going to go ahead and move forward into
10
00:01:08.959 --> 00:01:15.879
some additional murders and some letters and
of course some solves with Harriet Souchet.
11
00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:19.840
So I'm going to start by picking
up on the presentation from last week,
12
00:01:21.079 --> 00:01:25.439
just to kind of clear up a
statement that I had made when talking about
13
00:01:25.480 --> 00:01:30.519
mister Hollingsworth. I had indicated that
the body was found, which it was
14
00:01:30.719 --> 00:01:34.599
not found, so evidently he is
still missing at this point. So he
15
00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:38.439
went missing in the South Lake Tahoe
area. He lived basically on the same
16
00:01:38.519 --> 00:01:42.079
block as don Alas his car was
found at the Leviathon. Mind, you
17
00:01:42.120 --> 00:01:46.840
can see down here where it circled
and says car. The top is where
18
00:01:46.879 --> 00:01:49.920
I indicated a body was found,
and it turns out it has not been
19
00:01:49.959 --> 00:01:55.359
related to mister Hollingsworth yet at this
point. But I was being told by
20
00:01:55.400 --> 00:01:59.239
the individual who supplied me with this
information that a body had been found with
21
00:01:59.359 --> 00:02:07.280
rebolt holes in the skull and that
body has not been identified yet. But
22
00:02:07.359 --> 00:02:12.159
that's her job, basically, she
puts together missing people and remains that are
23
00:02:12.199 --> 00:02:15.840
found. So I believe this one
has been sent off to law enforcement so
24
00:02:15.879 --> 00:02:19.479
that they can in fact check this
out and see if this is that missing
25
00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:23.479
person. So just to clarify,
because she brought it up to my attention
26
00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:27.120
that he has not been found and
he is still missing, just like well
27
00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:31.680
don Aless is now found, but
hopefully putting this together maybe a way of
28
00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:38.120
finding his body as well. So
last week I discussed an individual that was
29
00:02:38.319 --> 00:02:43.360
indicating that there were people who were
going to be attempting to make an attack
30
00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:46.680
on me and my presentation or engage
me in some type of debate where they
31
00:02:46.680 --> 00:02:52.039
would try to run me down.
And there were accusations that were made that
32
00:02:52.159 --> 00:02:55.919
this individual had to remove all her
email accounts, dump her Facebook, dump
33
00:02:57.879 --> 00:03:01.000
phones, laptops, you name it, because somebody had hacked into her system
34
00:03:01.120 --> 00:03:07.039
and was equivocally sending emails that she
had sent to me and had not sent
35
00:03:07.080 --> 00:03:09.919
to anybody else. They were being
forwarded back to her by an individual,
36
00:03:09.960 --> 00:03:14.879
and I mentioned his name, so
of course everybody wanted to reach out and
37
00:03:14.919 --> 00:03:17.719
say, hey, hold on,
I did get messages from them. So
38
00:03:19.280 --> 00:03:23.000
Ned Dehan was the one that she
had stated she believed the email. Well,
39
00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:27.240
she stated the email came from him. The email contained an email she
40
00:03:27.319 --> 00:03:30.879
had sent me, so it was
basically a forward of something somebody else shouldn't
41
00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:35.159
have had in their hands. Now, maybe at this point, after the
42
00:03:35.199 --> 00:03:39.759
responses I've received, there's a possibility
that somebody is attempting to make it look
43
00:03:39.879 --> 00:03:44.639
like is Ned doing it? I
really don't know. What I do know
44
00:03:44.759 --> 00:03:49.439
is that Ned reached out to me. So black Box Online Radio posted on
45
00:03:49.479 --> 00:03:52.960
YouTube, Hello, my name is
Ned. I am the person discussed around
46
00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:55.639
the twenty two minute mark. I
am quite surprised to see and hear these
47
00:03:55.680 --> 00:04:00.520
comments in regards to the allegation of
bullying. Ray greyt. Ray Grant did
48
00:04:00.599 --> 00:04:03.919
appear on a show called The Zodiac
Killer Debate Files, and that was with
49
00:04:03.960 --> 00:04:08.520
a guy named Ross, so evidently
she believes all of these people are in
50
00:04:08.560 --> 00:04:12.800
the same group. But ray Grant
did appear on a show called The Zodiac
51
00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:15.360
Killer Debate Files, but that is
not my show. I also was not
52
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:19.519
a participant on the program. I
have never debated Ray Grant about the Zodiac
53
00:04:19.600 --> 00:04:24.839
Killer case. I have also never
debated anyone in a Zodiac Killer debate.
54
00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:30.240
The Debate Files is hosted by Ross
Garassi, and he is also not a
55
00:04:30.279 --> 00:04:35.040
bully. Ray Grant deleted his channel
for unknown reasons he has never specified.
56
00:04:35.639 --> 00:04:40.199
I do not work for Tom Voyd
and I have no direct affiliation with his
57
00:04:40.279 --> 00:04:44.560
website zodiackiller dot com. To clarify, I am not a hacker. I
58
00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:47.560
don't know anything about hacking and next
to nothing about computers. While it is
59
00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:51.519
not easy to hear that I have
been called a bully, especially because even
60
00:04:53.199 --> 00:04:57.240
I was not even on the mentioned
program, being called a computer hacker and
61
00:04:57.279 --> 00:05:01.279
hearing accusations of hacking into other people's
cis is pure slander and liable, while
62
00:05:01.279 --> 00:05:06.160
the person who sent the message is
clearly paranoid. I wouldn a Nette not.
63
00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:12.639
I would na Nette not to share
gossip and rumors that accuse someone of
64
00:05:12.680 --> 00:05:17.319
illegal behavior without evidence. In conclusion, please be careful when you share unverified
65
00:05:17.360 --> 00:05:24.439
pieces of information on the Internet.
Now, the individual had sent me the
66
00:05:24.480 --> 00:05:29.240
email that contained the forwarded email and
the information on it. I was not
67
00:05:29.319 --> 00:05:30.600
able to find it in my system. But I need to go back and
68
00:05:30.600 --> 00:05:35.879
look a little harder, because I
do notice that there are many many email
69
00:05:35.879 --> 00:05:40.879
messages I have not looked at from
this person. But a second individual jumped
70
00:05:40.920 --> 00:05:47.079
on board and also posted on this
same podcast and said Dirk Poor Richards said
71
00:05:47.439 --> 00:05:51.720
a bad mischaracterization of Ned Dehan.
I've had brief interactions with him, and
72
00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:55.879
he has proven to be quite nice, really and not at all bully.
73
00:05:56.199 --> 00:05:59.920
He allows people to air their theories
on his show and is very open to
74
00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:02.879
new ideas. He's not a yes
man for anyone's theories and will challenge their
75
00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:08.000
narrative and ask the hard questions when
he feels it's necessary. That's what a
76
00:06:08.000 --> 00:06:11.920
good interviewer does. He's not a
hacker that's trying to block people's info.
77
00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:15.600
In fact, quite the opposite.
He would welcome anyone's info on a show.
78
00:06:15.600 --> 00:06:18.959
If they feel they have something and
can present it reasonably to the listeners,
79
00:06:19.279 --> 00:06:24.120
you probably owe him an apology,
all right, So, Dirt Pord
80
00:06:24.199 --> 00:06:27.480
Richard says, I should apologize,
And so that's what I'm going to do
81
00:06:27.480 --> 00:06:30.120
at this point. I'm going to
take this for face value. I don't
82
00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:33.560
want to try and figure out what
the infighting is about and who is who
83
00:06:33.600 --> 00:06:36.360
is saying what to who and who
is doing what to who, because that's
84
00:06:36.480 --> 00:06:39.800
really not why I'm here, nor
do I have the time for any of
85
00:06:39.839 --> 00:06:44.879
these games. Dirt Poor Richard went
on to say that I understand that they
86
00:06:44.959 --> 00:06:48.480
were someone else's words. I just
disagree with perpetuating a rumor like that,
87
00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:55.439
especially when I know who they were
talking about and it wasn't Ned. I
88
00:06:55.480 --> 00:06:59.199
don't think you meant any harm,
but unfortunately, some of your listeners might
89
00:06:59.240 --> 00:07:01.399
believe it to be true, which
is kind of like the thing that we
90
00:07:01.480 --> 00:07:04.439
go through when we're dealing with the
Zodiac case. All of these people come
91
00:07:04.439 --> 00:07:10.639
out and put out these massive press
releases in regards to a fake suspect,
92
00:07:11.000 --> 00:07:14.399
and it makes it all over the
place. Everybody hears about and everybody's talking
93
00:07:14.399 --> 00:07:17.439
about it, and then nobody sees
the three second reaction that the news locally
94
00:07:17.480 --> 00:07:21.000
puts out stating that the people were
wrong. So I get what he's saying
95
00:07:21.040 --> 00:07:25.959
about my viewers might might hear or
see this. So I'm saying, at
96
00:07:25.959 --> 00:07:28.839
this point in time, you guys, I have absolutely no evidence to suggest
97
00:07:28.920 --> 00:07:31.600
he is. It was just a
statement of caution to me to make sure
98
00:07:31.639 --> 00:07:34.639
that I didn't get wrapped up in
a mess where I ended up getting hacked
99
00:07:34.639 --> 00:07:39.839
and losing all of my precious files
on this case, or getting myself into
100
00:07:39.879 --> 00:07:44.040
a debate with somebody who's going to
attempt to beat me up rather than beat
101
00:07:44.160 --> 00:07:46.279
up the actual evidence, which I
don't mind. Let's debate it. Let's
102
00:07:46.319 --> 00:07:51.600
discuss the evidence. This is what
I've said. Poor Richard goes on to
103
00:07:51.639 --> 00:07:55.839
say, no, I was.
I asked him because when he said I
104
00:07:55.920 --> 00:07:58.759
know the person and it wasn't ned, I thought it meant that he knew
105
00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:01.120
the person who was hacking. Turns
out he says, no, I was
106
00:08:01.120 --> 00:08:05.040
referring to the person who had the
guests that removed his content after the podcast.
107
00:08:05.439 --> 00:08:09.720
I don't know of anyone who's hacking
content. Your show was the first
108
00:08:09.720 --> 00:08:13.040
time I've ever heard of it.
So Ned has people who are coming to
109
00:08:13.160 --> 00:08:18.319
his side to help erase the words
that I said last week, or at
110
00:08:18.399 --> 00:08:22.759
least have me redact or come back
and say that I'm sorry. This is
111
00:08:22.879 --> 00:08:26.319
not my intentions is to accuse anybody
of anything. I just get a little
112
00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:31.839
leery when I'm informed about hacking or
anybody doing anything to people's technology. This
113
00:08:31.839 --> 00:08:35.879
stuff is expensive, it's not something
we want to lose, and just to
114
00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:37.519
be a part of this case shouldn't
mean that every time we click on a
115
00:08:37.559 --> 00:08:43.080
link on somebody's website or otherwise,
that we should contract some type of a
116
00:08:43.159 --> 00:08:48.519
virus that takes down our computer systems. So with that being said, it
117
00:08:48.559 --> 00:08:52.600
turns out I received the secondary message, which was basically the same message that
118
00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:56.840
we just discussed from Ned Dehan,
only this time he sent it to my
119
00:08:56.879 --> 00:09:00.399
email directly because he said, since
I had learned about your channel become a
120
00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:03.720
weekly listener, I decided to tune
into your last episode episode and I was
121
00:09:03.840 --> 00:09:09.159
rather surprised to a segment discussing allegation
allegations against me. I now understand what
122
00:09:09.240 --> 00:09:13.559
you mean about allegations of hacking.
I wrote this out for the comment section
123
00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:16.399
of your show, and I noticed
a typo in my comment, so I
124
00:09:16.480 --> 00:09:20.159
tried to edit it, but it
was already deleted. I am not sure
125
00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:24.360
if that was you or the YouTube
bots, so I will send this to
126
00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:28.919
you privately. So he basically reiterates
the message that he gave me on YouTube,
127
00:09:30.360 --> 00:09:33.159
and my shock and for awe over
this is that is there really YouTube
128
00:09:33.200 --> 00:09:39.279
bots out there erasing people's comments if
they don't violate any policies. They're not
129
00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:41.519
being rude, they're not cussing,
they're not just being jerks. What would
130
00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:46.519
be the purpose of this one that
having been erased? I did not actually
131
00:09:46.559 --> 00:09:50.159
see anything inside of the comment that
would have caused that to violate YouTube's policies,
132
00:09:50.360 --> 00:09:54.799
or that it should have been erased
automatically by YouTube. So this may
133
00:09:54.840 --> 00:09:58.919
answer some of the questions I've had
in the past about how I get the
134
00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:03.559
email notification from YouTube. I see
the comment by the commenter, I go
135
00:10:03.679 --> 00:10:07.440
back to YouTube, and I can't
find it anywhere. So that is answering
136
00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:09.919
that question for me. We have
YouTube bots? I guess I don't know.
137
00:10:11.320 --> 00:10:15.879
Careful guys, everything is always being
redacted around here, and seems like
138
00:10:15.919 --> 00:10:18.960
freedom of speech is no longer ours. Even on the social media platforms we
139
00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:28.279
attempt to post on. So that
was that. Now we do have some
140
00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:33.039
good comments that actually came about,
like the one from Zodiac Killer official.
141
00:10:33.159 --> 00:10:35.679
I thought this was awesome. He
said that reward poster. Now he's talking
142
00:10:35.679 --> 00:10:39.919
about the Donna last reward poster,
including the cipher, was created by Donna's
143
00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:43.480
family. I'm not sure how he
knows this or where the information comes from,
144
00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:46.080
but I did ask, you know, people out there to fill me
145
00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:50.240
in if they knew. So he's
doing that when properly sawd The cipher is
146
00:10:50.279 --> 00:10:56.080
a message to Zodiac to call a
phone number and anonymously reveal where Donna's body
147
00:10:56.080 --> 00:11:01.600
could be found. Donna's family also
put that message into newspaper classified ads messages
148
00:11:01.039 --> 00:11:05.960
in several newspapers in the Bay Area
and Tahoe. The phone number, when
149
00:11:05.000 --> 00:11:09.600
properly solved, included an area code
that didn't exist until the nineteen eighties.
150
00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:15.600
That's insane. So maybe the area
code existed, but it was only relegated
151
00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:22.480
to very specific individuals or companies or
entities for maybe state or government. I
152
00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:26.159
don't know, but that's interesting that
this would have been a reward poster that
153
00:11:26.200 --> 00:11:31.039
came out in the seventies, but
the area code doesn't exist until nineteen eighties,
154
00:11:31.519 --> 00:11:35.399
he says, if I remember correctly, it came out in the eighties.
155
00:11:35.480 --> 00:11:39.919
In any event, if anyone has
used that reward poster in any capacity
156
00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:45.000
to guess where her remains could be
located, it was simply dumb luck.
157
00:11:45.360 --> 00:11:50.240
Well, mister Swernam, you have
dumb luck, as this poster would indicate,
158
00:11:50.360 --> 00:11:54.200
because you did actually locate the very
location that the school was found in
159
00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:58.320
and off of a reward poster that
should not have been solvable for that type
160
00:11:58.320 --> 00:12:03.279
of a message. Based on this
man's information, I also had San lua
161
00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:09.559
Quing Valley Transparency respond to me thanking
him for sending viewers my way, getting
162
00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:15.519
new subscribers for the YouTube podcast,
and for being a longtime supporter, and
163
00:12:15.679 --> 00:12:20.159
he actually responded back saying finding the
Zodiac, You're welcome. Just you know,
164
00:12:20.320 --> 00:12:22.679
I was stoked to see you uploading
again after eleven years. I followed
165
00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:26.720
your page years ago, and that
gave me chills because that means that I'm
166
00:12:26.759 --> 00:12:31.759
onto something that makes people pay attention. And I'm really just trying to get
167
00:12:31.840 --> 00:12:35.159
Jack out there as the best suspect
for this. But the fact that people
168
00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:39.799
are actually following it for this long
and are excited to see that the show
169
00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:43.159
is back on and we're presenting the
information on Jack just tells me I'm on
170
00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:48.200
the right track and doing the right
thing that brings us to additional murders.
171
00:12:48.279 --> 00:12:52.480
So right now, I've put up
a map over here to the right hand
172
00:12:52.519 --> 00:12:56.639
side. This is basically kind of
a basic synopsis of Jack's whereabouts in the
173
00:12:56.679 --> 00:13:03.279
Sacramento area during these particular years.
We also see where Carol Hilburn goes missing
174
00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:09.480
the Zodiac bar. We just finished
talking about that with Carol Hilburn and d
175
00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:16.960
Benelac and Hakari also went missing from
the Urden Arcade area. We have Jack
176
00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:22.360
on Auburn Boulevard in nineteen seventy nine. In this area actually was taken over
177
00:13:22.399 --> 00:13:26.159
by the FBI, I want to
say somewhere shortly afterwards they opened up a
178
00:13:26.159 --> 00:13:31.600
new office and it ended up being
on the actual mobile home land in which
179
00:13:31.720 --> 00:13:35.399
Jack lived on. I thought that
was kind of ironic. I think he
180
00:13:35.399 --> 00:13:37.320
would have gotten a kick out of
that. He probably knew it too,
181
00:13:37.480 --> 00:13:43.799
So whatever purpose, they came in
bulldozed that entire area and built the new
182
00:13:43.879 --> 00:13:48.080
FBI building. At that time,
that is now since moved to Roseville on
183
00:13:48.279 --> 00:13:50.960
Freedom Way, so they are no
longer occupying as far as I know,
184
00:13:52.039 --> 00:13:58.120
the building over on Auburn Boulevard.
Now, there was an actual newspaper article
185
00:13:58.200 --> 00:14:03.320
that came out with some different composites. These are police drawings one suspect and
186
00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:07.639
the Benelac killing left, and two
suspects in the Hakari murder case. So
187
00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:13.399
I was really kind of enamored by
the fact that this center one is very
188
00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:18.000
much a likeness of the dB Cooper
composite done by the FBI, So I
189
00:14:18.039 --> 00:14:20.960
want to do a cross comparison to
that and set them kind of side by
190
00:14:22.039 --> 00:14:24.279
side. And then we also had
this one over here with this beard the
191
00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:28.240
black hair. I don't know that
they stated what the color of the hair
192
00:14:28.399 --> 00:14:31.440
was, but they definitely give you
the impression that they are all dark haired
193
00:14:31.519 --> 00:14:35.919
individuals. This one has a part
on one side. And then in nineteen
194
00:14:35.960 --> 00:14:39.399
seventy five, I actually found a
picture of Jack where his hair had been
195
00:14:39.440 --> 00:14:43.480
dyed black. We can see the
gray that's kind of coming through. I
196
00:14:43.559 --> 00:14:48.279
know this is a terrible picture because
it's one of those polaroid pictures and it's
197
00:14:48.320 --> 00:14:52.960
old and it's scanned and then I
blow it up and it's all pixelated,
198
00:14:52.200 --> 00:14:54.840
but you can definitely see the black
hair. You can see the part on
199
00:14:54.879 --> 00:14:58.200
the side, and he is definitely
wearing a full beard, which is not
200
00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:03.360
something we use see Jack doing.
We also see the black and his beard,
201
00:15:03.399 --> 00:15:07.279
and we see the gray that's growing
out. So if in nineteen seventy
202
00:15:07.320 --> 00:15:11.120
one, these murders are being committed
and we've got black hair that is growing
203
00:15:11.120 --> 00:15:13.960
out on Jack by nineteen seventy four, nineteen seventy five, it may be
204
00:15:15.080 --> 00:15:18.000
the way he wore his hair after
being told it changed his appearance and moved
205
00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:22.639
to another town and find a family, and you know the article in the
206
00:15:22.639 --> 00:15:26.120
newspaper that told him to go kick
rocks and find another place to be.
207
00:15:26.960 --> 00:15:30.639
Anyways, Dennis claims that Jack was
constantly growing a beard and shaving and gaining
208
00:15:30.639 --> 00:15:33.919
and losing weight, as if to
be on a constant run to change his
209
00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:37.279
appearance. And I do show a
lot of Jack's pictures back to back.
210
00:15:37.320 --> 00:15:41.679
You wouldn't think that one from the
next was actually the same person, but
211
00:15:41.840 --> 00:15:48.679
in fact is. We also had
some mystery mystery killings, I'm gonna say
212
00:15:48.720 --> 00:15:52.879
accidents, whatever you want to call
them. It was in nineteen sixty six
213
00:15:52.919 --> 00:15:56.960
to nineteen seventy. They called it
Blood Alley. It was a stretch of
214
00:15:56.000 --> 00:16:02.440
Highway thirty seven between Nevado and Balleo, which increased significantly in death during the
215
00:16:02.480 --> 00:16:06.720
period that the Zodiac worked in California. Jack was stationed at Hamilton Air Force
216
00:16:06.759 --> 00:16:11.720
Base at the Nevado end of Highway
thirty seven during nineteen forty eight and fifty.
217
00:16:11.879 --> 00:16:15.519
These cases should be investigated for accidents
that included a third car that fled
218
00:16:15.559 --> 00:16:19.559
from the scene or may have caused
the impeding accident. Zodiac claimed that he
219
00:16:19.600 --> 00:16:23.039
would make some murders look like accidents, so I think that this is worthy
220
00:16:23.080 --> 00:16:27.639
of looking at. Zodiac does not
announce that he will tell about his fake
221
00:16:27.720 --> 00:16:34.360
accidents or crimes in general until October
of nineteen seventy, but that doesn't mean
222
00:16:34.399 --> 00:16:37.919
that he hasn't committed other crimes that
he's not talked about, because it also
223
00:16:38.080 --> 00:16:44.440
isn't until this next letter coming up
that we see he's taking responsibility for any
224
00:16:44.440 --> 00:16:48.440
type of activity in murders down in
the Riverside or Southern California area. So
225
00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:53.000
just because he didn't say he was
going to tell us about them until later,
226
00:16:53.240 --> 00:16:59.600
didn't mean that he hadn't already committed
some as well. This is an
227
00:16:59.679 --> 00:17:03.519
article that's written by Paul Avery,
whom the Zodiac Killer took personal notice to
228
00:17:03.679 --> 00:17:07.839
and wrote the Hall of Wing card
to in October of nineteen seventy, and
229
00:17:07.880 --> 00:17:12.240
it says Riverside slain in nineteen sixty
six Zodiac link is definite. The Zodiac
230
00:17:12.319 --> 00:17:18.720
Killer, hunted for two years for
at least for at least five Bay Area
231
00:17:18.799 --> 00:17:23.440
slains, was linked firmly yesterday to
the knife slain in nineteen sixty six of
232
00:17:23.519 --> 00:17:29.240
co ed sharing Joe Bates in Southern
California. Sherward Moral, the State Crime
233
00:17:29.279 --> 00:17:36.119
Bureau's handwriting expert, said printing specimens
on letters discovered by the Chronicle in Riverside
234
00:17:36.160 --> 00:17:41.200
police files are unquestionably the work of
the Zodiac. Because of the evidence turned
235
00:17:41.240 --> 00:17:44.680
up by the Chronicle, police now
have leads they feel might soon result in
236
00:17:44.759 --> 00:17:48.720
Zodiac's capture. I'm like, wow, they thought they were close. The
237
00:17:48.720 --> 00:17:52.640
clue that excites them most is a
set of initials are an H inscribed beneath
238
00:17:52.680 --> 00:17:59.119
a gory poem which Zodiac scratched on
a library study desk at River City College.
239
00:17:59.279 --> 00:18:02.839
Now they say scratched, but it
is said that he actually used a
240
00:18:02.880 --> 00:18:07.599
pen, a ballpoint pen to write
in. It goes on to say as
241
00:18:07.640 --> 00:18:11.039
Bates was murdered after she left the
library on the night of October thirtieth,
242
00:18:11.119 --> 00:18:15.599
nineteen sixty six, Her killer Sabot
sabotaged her car and then talked her into
243
00:18:15.640 --> 00:18:19.519
accompanying him in the direction of a
campus parking lot, apparently with offer of
244
00:18:19.559 --> 00:18:25.000
a ride. The body of eighteen
year old honors student was found next morning
245
00:18:25.039 --> 00:18:30.599
by a college groundkeeper. Poem several
months later, a college janitor discovered the
246
00:18:30.640 --> 00:18:33.839
strange poem. At the time,
detectives didn't consider it as being connected with
247
00:18:33.920 --> 00:18:37.720
the murder case, nor the three
letters which came to their attention on April
248
00:18:37.720 --> 00:18:41.720
thirtieth, nineteen sixty seven, six
months to the day after the slaying.
249
00:18:42.279 --> 00:18:49.000
The letters for claiming Baits had to
die there will be more routinely tucked away
250
00:18:49.039 --> 00:18:56.000
with dozens of other pieces of crack
pot correspondence in case, oh, I
251
00:18:56.039 --> 00:19:00.880
can't read that were it? Oh? Either way, ended up in the
252
00:19:00.920 --> 00:19:04.160
department's evidence vault. Nobody then took
special notice of the fact that two of
253
00:19:04.200 --> 00:19:08.160
the three letters had been signed with
a Z. It wasn't until mid nineteen
254
00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:12.359
sixty nine that Zodiac began writing to
the Chronicle bragging about his crimes, and
255
00:19:12.400 --> 00:19:18.680
then Riverside investigators had forgotten about the
existence of the z signed notes, and
256
00:19:18.759 --> 00:19:22.440
it does state with the ballpoint pen
it was scratched into the desk. Goes
257
00:19:22.440 --> 00:19:26.559
on to say Riverside's evidence was forwarded
to the State Bureau of Criminal Investigation and
258
00:19:26.599 --> 00:19:32.599
Identification in Sacramento, where Morals spent
four days examining it in relation to Zodiac's
259
00:19:32.599 --> 00:19:37.759
correspondence to the Chronicle. Late yesterday
he made his public made public his findings.
260
00:19:38.279 --> 00:19:41.640
Printing. The handprinting scratched on the
desk is the same as the three
261
00:19:41.720 --> 00:19:45.960
letters, particularly like the one on
the envelope, and his handprinting is by
262
00:19:47.000 --> 00:19:51.759
the same person who has been preparing
the Zodiac letters that have been received by
263
00:19:51.799 --> 00:19:56.559
the Chronicle. Moral stated this finding
doesn't prove that Zodiac murdered Misbates, only
264
00:19:56.599 --> 00:20:00.480
that he wrote the poem and the
notes sent to the Riverside Press Enterprise,
265
00:20:00.920 --> 00:20:06.079
the police, and the slang girl's
father six months later. So I think
266
00:20:06.359 --> 00:20:10.720
I really just wanted to kind of
state that I am getting information from an
267
00:20:10.720 --> 00:20:14.640
individual. She calls herself, Kathy
Kleine. She thinks that they found the
268
00:20:14.680 --> 00:20:18.279
Zodiac in Saudi Arabia and that he
was just a teenager in school at the
269
00:20:18.279 --> 00:20:22.240
time. Well, that would rule
him out if he couldn't have been old
270
00:20:22.319 --> 00:20:26.319
enough or been in the Riverside area. This is typically how I will rule
271
00:20:26.920 --> 00:20:30.839
out of suspect. You have to
have proximity to multiple different cases, because,
272
00:20:30.079 --> 00:20:33.839
like I said, the Zodiac didn't
wake up one day attempt to kill
273
00:20:33.839 --> 00:20:37.720
seven people, write you know,
one hundred messages to law enforcement, to
274
00:20:37.839 --> 00:20:41.440
the newspapers to not have done it
before or to have ever done it again.
275
00:20:41.920 --> 00:20:47.160
So there is going to be these
baby track records of them actually getting
276
00:20:47.200 --> 00:20:53.039
themselves into getting himself up to the
nerve to write a two to three page,
277
00:20:53.039 --> 00:20:59.440
sometimes six page letter, as the
Zodiac did. Meanwhile, Berkeley police
278
00:20:59.440 --> 00:21:03.400
are also considering the possibility that Zodiac
may have tried about two years ago to
279
00:21:03.440 --> 00:21:07.720
attack two young girls whose car was
mysteriously sabotaged in the same manner as the
280
00:21:08.119 --> 00:21:12.799
as was miss Bates the witness.
A Berkeley man who witnessed the incident gave
281
00:21:12.839 --> 00:21:18.119
the Chronicle these details. He noticed
a man somewhere between twenty five and forty
282
00:21:18.240 --> 00:21:22.519
years old. Now that nails Jack
because we got and remember he's approximately forty
283
00:21:22.559 --> 00:21:27.759
forty one at this point in time
old. He guessed helping a young girl
284
00:21:27.799 --> 00:21:33.160
push a Volkswagen near Telegraph Avenue.
We know that there is a relation to
285
00:21:33.319 --> 00:21:37.400
mk Ultrat and Telegraph Avenue. Another
girl was at the wheel steering the vehicle.
286
00:21:37.480 --> 00:21:44.759
The stranger suddenly became obviously enraged at
the intrusion and stalked off. So
287
00:21:45.160 --> 00:21:48.559
basically he got upset because somebody intervened
and got in the way. Clearly.
288
00:21:51.359 --> 00:21:55.960
On November thirtieth of nineteen seventy we
have Ronald Hughes who went missing and did
289
00:21:55.960 --> 00:21:59.240
not show up to the court appearance. He was found in March of nineteen
290
00:21:59.319 --> 00:22:03.680
seventy one. I was hoping to
be able to actually cover this with Nolan.
291
00:22:03.799 --> 00:22:10.519
Hopefully he is climbing on as we
speak. Uh, there we go.
292
00:22:10.519 --> 00:22:15.640
Good morning, area, Hey,
good morning. Sorry about that.
293
00:22:15.720 --> 00:22:18.680
I did not realize that you were
not included in that link. That's horrible
294
00:22:18.720 --> 00:22:26.920
of me. And hopefully so that's
okay. Hopefully Nolan is joining us soon.
295
00:22:29.480 --> 00:22:33.079
Do you get a hair out?
I believe he is. Yeah,
296
00:22:33.519 --> 00:22:37.759
yeah, And this next one that's
coming is actually having to do with the
297
00:22:37.240 --> 00:22:41.440
Manson family murders. So I was
hoping that he was on by the time
298
00:22:41.480 --> 00:22:48.119
that happened. Let me just double
check and make sure. Oh my goodness,
299
00:22:48.200 --> 00:22:52.720
how is your morning going? Oh
it's going actually pretty good. I
300
00:22:52.839 --> 00:22:56.480
was going to try to sit outside, but it was forty two outside,
301
00:22:56.519 --> 00:23:03.799
so well that's not going to work. I like, it's still good.
302
00:23:07.039 --> 00:23:11.599
Yeah, he should be climbing on
quickly, because when he went to reply
303
00:23:11.759 --> 00:23:15.839
to your email, he replied to
me too, So I said, okay,
304
00:23:15.079 --> 00:23:22.319
good morning, there is good morning
Nolan. Hello. Sorry, I
305
00:23:22.680 --> 00:23:25.920
guess I failed to get that link
out you guys, but I'm glad.
306
00:23:26.319 --> 00:23:34.359
I'm glad. I'm glad. What's
that? Okay, Well, I'm glad
307
00:23:34.400 --> 00:23:37.880
you're with us because I was about
ready to climb into another missing person involved
308
00:23:37.920 --> 00:23:47.359
with the Manson Familey and I'm not
froze. Harriet's not frozen froze. Do
309
00:23:47.440 --> 00:23:49.680
I need to go out and back
again? No? I can hear you.
310
00:23:49.720 --> 00:23:56.160
Can you hear us? I can
hear you by Nolan, you can
311
00:23:56.200 --> 00:24:02.440
hear me. Yeah, you're breaking
up though we're not on our end.
312
00:24:02.680 --> 00:24:14.640
Very it's hard to do. Oh
my gosh. All right, So I
313
00:24:14.720 --> 00:24:21.559
was just getting ready to climb into
Ronald Hughes. Wrong Hughes. He was
314
00:24:21.599 --> 00:24:27.079
not a lawyer in the yeah right
right. So one of nineteen seventy Ronald
315
00:24:27.160 --> 00:24:32.680
Hughes went missing and did not show
up to a court appearance. His body
316
00:24:32.759 --> 00:24:37.160
was found in Round Right. His
body was found in March of nineteen seventy
317
00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:42.799
one. He's representing Leslie van Houten
on the Tate Lobianca trial. Last seen
318
00:24:42.839 --> 00:24:48.279
at Sespy Hot Springs in Ventura County, he was found at Burker Ranch,
319
00:24:48.440 --> 00:24:52.559
Inyo County, almost one hundred and
fifty miles away and north wedged between two
320
00:24:52.599 --> 00:24:59.400
boulders. His Volkswagen was found.
Psychiatric report on Leslie van Houten was missing
321
00:24:59.400 --> 00:25:03.880
from his try transcripts, and the
Manson family claimed first of the retaliation murders.
322
00:25:04.599 --> 00:25:07.519
I remember reading that there had been
a phone call, I think or
323
00:25:07.559 --> 00:25:14.880
something to tell the authorities to look
behind a shed on Barker Ranch for the
324
00:25:14.920 --> 00:25:18.359
body, and that's basically where they
found it. And if people aren't familiar,
325
00:25:18.440 --> 00:25:22.079
Barker Ranch is one of the places
that the Manson family actually housed their
326
00:25:22.200 --> 00:25:30.400
scientology people. Right, I'm sorry, Scientology housed the Manson family members who
327
00:25:30.440 --> 00:25:38.119
were part of Scientology. Do I
get that right? It's connected? What's
328
00:25:38.160 --> 00:25:45.319
that I say? Next? Is
Scientology and Ranch? Oh my god?
329
00:25:48.000 --> 00:25:51.160
Oh, I'm getting horrible reception from
you. Now. I don't know what
330
00:25:51.200 --> 00:25:56.079
happened. You were so good a
second ago. Okay, well, Nolan's
331
00:25:56.160 --> 00:26:02.200
back. Oh and now all of
a sudden, you're clear. Yay,
332
00:26:03.000 --> 00:26:10.599
give me one of those days.
Yeah, all right, said that he
333
00:26:10.799 --> 00:26:15.160
was founded between two boulders. Yeah, yeah, I know, I know.
334
00:26:15.279 --> 00:26:21.519
We're just there. Pick up on
that one, two boulders. I
335
00:26:21.640 --> 00:26:26.519
was just discussing that somebody I remember
reading somewhere. Yeah, but you're fine
336
00:26:26.519 --> 00:26:32.720
now, I can hear you.
Can you hear us? I feel like
337
00:26:32.759 --> 00:26:37.240
we're doing an at t Old at
T commercial. Can you hear me?
338
00:26:37.319 --> 00:26:38.720
Now? Can you hear me?
Now? Can you hear me? Now?
339
00:26:41.079 --> 00:26:52.359
I want to break out with monocopise. You can't see us. Maybe
340
00:26:52.359 --> 00:26:59.440
it's for the better. I may
have my warning face. Still, can
341
00:26:59.440 --> 00:27:08.839
you hear us? Something is going
on with his internet. I'm not getting
342
00:27:08.920 --> 00:27:12.799
any response when I when I talk. All right. Anyways, So the
343
00:27:12.880 --> 00:27:18.960
dumb side near the former mansion compound
is up here at Barker Ranch and Sespy
344
00:27:18.039 --> 00:27:27.319
Hot Springs Camp talking. Ah,
maybe I am it's the devil's game.
345
00:27:30.119 --> 00:27:37.640
Oh that was kind of wicked.
Okay, bringing six six six the angel
346
00:27:37.720 --> 00:27:42.359
number. Anyways, go ahead.
The abduction side is almost one hundred and
347
00:27:42.359 --> 00:27:45.720
fifty miles from where the body is
found. This rules out the body being
348
00:27:45.839 --> 00:27:49.480
washed downstream due to floods. Did
law enforcement really want us to believe this?
349
00:27:49.559 --> 00:27:53.720
So evidently there was some information out
there that was stating that the body
350
00:27:53.759 --> 00:27:57.960
had washed downstream when it was found
up at Barker Ranch, or at least
351
00:27:57.960 --> 00:28:02.559
that's what the information and I researched
is telling us. So I went on
352
00:28:02.640 --> 00:28:04.480
a little bit further. Do you
know who this guy is? Harriet?
353
00:28:07.599 --> 00:28:14.079
Uh, what's this? What's the
guy's name? He looks familiar name.
354
00:28:14.119 --> 00:28:18.480
I feel like he was like all
in the family with Archie Bunker. But
355
00:28:18.599 --> 00:28:30.279
I could tell my God, Okay, I's been taking a beating a lot
356
00:28:30.440 --> 00:28:37.400
lately, but it does look like
God. So I'm a little concerted.
357
00:28:38.319 --> 00:28:44.079
The Manson family, come on,
right. I wanted to work out some
358
00:28:44.160 --> 00:28:48.240
of this information with Nolan because this
is what I read and researched. I'm
359
00:28:48.240 --> 00:28:52.000
a little concerned about the backstory on
Ronald Hughes going missing because purportedly Manson had
360
00:28:52.200 --> 00:28:56.839
Hughes killed because Hughes defended Van Houten
with a cold control defense. But the
361
00:28:56.880 --> 00:29:00.720
girls wanted to testify they committed the
murder and Manson had no part of it.
362
00:29:02.680 --> 00:29:06.559
Hughes would not allow his defendant to
testify, and neither would the attorneys
363
00:29:06.599 --> 00:29:11.799
for the other girls. So are
you familiar with that, Nolan, I'm
364
00:29:11.839 --> 00:29:15.039
familiar with that. I don't know
that. I mean, he died under
365
00:29:15.039 --> 00:29:19.680
suspicious circumstances, but it was basically
he was up in the Ohio Valley and
366
00:29:21.000 --> 00:29:23.559
I think it was camping and there
was a flash flood that came through.
367
00:29:23.720 --> 00:29:29.920
And but then the other details about
his car and his papers and they were
368
00:29:29.920 --> 00:29:33.240
found in a different place where they
shouldn't have been. So it's right,
369
00:29:33.400 --> 00:29:37.160
it's really odd. The circumstances were
really odd. Well, and like I
370
00:29:37.200 --> 00:29:44.839
said, I remembered reading that there
too. What's that? But as far
371
00:29:44.839 --> 00:29:48.960
as I remember, Hue, there
was a dispute over trial tactics. Like
372
00:29:48.039 --> 00:29:52.440
you say, right, the girls
wanted to testify and he didn't want to.
373
00:29:52.559 --> 00:29:56.680
Yeah, But but he was doing
a good job. Everything I've read
374
00:29:56.759 --> 00:30:00.480
is that he was a pretty good
lawyer, right right. Evidently he wanted
375
00:30:00.519 --> 00:30:07.839
to go he wanted to he wanted
to defend them with a cult control defense,
376
00:30:07.920 --> 00:30:11.519
but the girls wanted to testify they
committed the murder on their own and
377
00:30:11.559 --> 00:30:15.480
that Manson had no part in it. Hughes would not allow his defendant to
378
00:30:15.519 --> 00:30:18.559
testify, and neither would the attorneys
for the girls. So we have girls
379
00:30:18.559 --> 00:30:25.720
that are willing to testify to committing
that Tate murders themselves, not in implicating
380
00:30:26.240 --> 00:30:29.839
Manson. But someone wanted to see
Manson go down either way. I mean,
381
00:30:29.880 --> 00:30:33.799
the fact that they kept pressing their
own clients for a cult defense when
382
00:30:33.799 --> 00:30:36.680
they were willing to testify that they
committed them on their own, accord,
383
00:30:36.960 --> 00:30:41.599
tells me somebody must have been specifically
after Manson. Evidence supports Manson wasn't there,
384
00:30:41.680 --> 00:30:45.400
but he was convicted as a handler
or a controller. I thought it
385
00:30:45.440 --> 00:30:49.720
was extremely interesting that the entire plea
from the Zodiac was that control he was
386
00:30:49.839 --> 00:30:53.680
under with the use of LSD and
acid. So there is that similar type
387
00:30:53.680 --> 00:30:57.960
connection. And Manson comes off like
he's a little crazy, like he's done
388
00:30:59.000 --> 00:31:08.759
a bit of semesside himself. He
was the government, federal prison, he
389
00:31:08.839 --> 00:31:12.200
was doing my control in federal prison
already experience. Oh yes, that is.
390
00:31:12.279 --> 00:31:17.200
That is one of the places that
mk ulture took place. Psychiatric hospitals,
391
00:31:17.279 --> 00:31:22.880
prison inmates, military college campuses with
co eds and students, socialites,
392
00:31:23.160 --> 00:31:26.599
any place that they could dive in
where they could get more information. They
393
00:31:26.680 --> 00:31:33.319
implemented the program. And the whole
and the whole Bay area, especially San
394
00:31:33.319 --> 00:31:37.880
Francis go right, yeah, Telegraph
Avenue, everything that was going on.
395
00:31:38.240 --> 00:31:42.720
Yeah. Yeah. And so if
Hughes refused to defend a client who is
396
00:31:42.759 --> 00:31:47.519
being pushed out a window, and
Manson told the girls not to testify to
397
00:31:47.559 --> 00:31:52.119
his innocence, then how does the
media's portrayal of Hughes killed by Manson family
398
00:31:52.160 --> 00:31:56.000
for trying to turn Van Houghton against
the group When Hughes and Manson were both
399
00:31:56.039 --> 00:32:01.759
publicly against the tactic. It was
actually a pretty good strategy to have the
400
00:32:01.759 --> 00:32:06.960
girls take the blame and text Watson. Of course, he was a shooter
401
00:32:07.079 --> 00:32:13.599
and he was the kingpin. But
because Manson didn't actually kill any of those
402
00:32:13.599 --> 00:32:19.319
people, right, he was there
at the Lobyanka house and he tied up
403
00:32:19.799 --> 00:32:22.240
the Lobyankas, but he didn't kill
him, and he didn't kill anyone at
404
00:32:22.240 --> 00:32:27.079
the Tate House either. That's just
insane. So in other words, it
405
00:32:27.119 --> 00:32:30.160
makes much sense. It makes sense
that Hughes was killed by Manson members for
406
00:32:30.200 --> 00:32:37.400
segregating his client from them. Yeah. I don't know if I buy that,
407
00:32:37.519 --> 00:32:44.240
but I know the whole thing just
doesn't make any sense to me.
408
00:32:44.319 --> 00:32:49.720
I mean, Manson gets hmmed up
part of a cult. The attorney's defense
409
00:32:49.920 --> 00:32:53.039
is that these girls were controlled by
a cult. The girls wanted to testify
410
00:32:53.119 --> 00:32:55.880
they weren't controlled by anything, they
did it on their own, and that
411
00:32:55.920 --> 00:33:00.559
Manson wasn't part of the killings.
So I'm just a little confused on why
412
00:33:00.559 --> 00:33:05.640
they would try or attempt to go
with the cult control defense. Either way,
413
00:33:05.680 --> 00:33:07.440
we have a good attranny, like
you said, that comes up missing.
414
00:33:07.480 --> 00:33:10.240
So is this I didn't know who
this guy was. Is this the
415
00:33:10.279 --> 00:33:15.480
attorney that went missing, Ronald Hughes. I don't know why I have this
416
00:33:15.559 --> 00:33:21.559
on here. I'm guessing I must
have gotten it, but go ahead,
417
00:33:21.720 --> 00:33:24.319
Yeah, that must be Ronald Hughes. Yes, I would think so.
418
00:33:24.720 --> 00:33:30.599
Yeah, so it makes far more
sense that he was killed by whomever wanted
419
00:33:30.640 --> 00:33:36.279
Manson convicted for these crimes because Hughes
wanted to segregate van Houton and wouldn't allow
420
00:33:36.319 --> 00:33:42.119
her to testify to Manson's innocence.
Who was interested in the demise of Manson
421
00:33:42.240 --> 00:33:44.720
is really where that gets me too, And maybe he had grown a little
422
00:33:44.720 --> 00:33:47.400
bit too big for his riches as
far as Scientology was concerned, and that
423
00:33:47.519 --> 00:33:52.359
his order to hit of the tape
murders violated some man made laws. And
424
00:33:52.480 --> 00:33:55.559
when I say man made, I
mean like in Scientology, they handled their
425
00:33:55.599 --> 00:33:59.960
own laws, they handled their own
punishments, they handled their own peace.
426
00:34:01.559 --> 00:34:06.400
Wow. As late as the day
before the murderers, Manson was up in
427
00:34:06.480 --> 00:34:10.679
big sirve to Escellan Institute. We're
do in seminars and whatnot with the like
428
00:34:12.119 --> 00:34:19.239
underage girl Wow. Well. Also
take being married to a movie magnet and
429
00:34:19.360 --> 00:34:23.320
pregnant is reminissent, very reminiscent of
other murders like Shepherd McDonald and the other
430
00:34:23.360 --> 00:34:29.239
pregnancy killings where it appears as though
there may have been another intended victim other
431
00:34:29.320 --> 00:34:32.119
than the one who died, so
it was meant to hit personally at someone
432
00:34:32.159 --> 00:34:37.119
else through a family member or a
wife or a pregnant girlfriend or whatever it
433
00:34:37.199 --> 00:34:46.719
might be that brings us to pictures
of Jack in nineteen seventy At Jack.
434
00:34:46.880 --> 00:34:53.000
Look at Jack. He looks so
different every time in every picture that I
435
00:34:53.039 --> 00:34:58.239
see him in. This is pictures
with him and his daughter at Christmas in
436
00:34:58.400 --> 00:35:00.760
South Lake Tahoe. So we to
see them in front of the Christmas tree.
437
00:35:00.800 --> 00:35:04.960
We get to see that it's snowing
outside. But he's definitely making his
438
00:35:05.000 --> 00:35:12.199
presence known in South Lake Tahoe.
At this point it is unclear he's still
439
00:35:12.519 --> 00:35:20.480
sinister, hey creepy. So On
February twenty second of nineteen seventy one,
440
00:35:20.559 --> 00:35:23.159
Sharon K. Wilson from Conquered.
She was on her way to Humboldt State
441
00:35:23.239 --> 00:35:27.079
College, a co ed. Her
body was found at the mouth of mad
442
00:35:27.199 --> 00:35:30.320
River near Arcada, two hundred miles
north of Napa, stabbed to death.
443
00:35:31.159 --> 00:35:37.639
Philip Mitchell Kohler was charged with the
crime. I don't show no victims listed
444
00:35:37.639 --> 00:35:40.840
for Conquered on the BETS map,
but could be a Eureka connection as far
445
00:35:40.960 --> 00:35:45.440
up as that is. And we
do know that there is some Eureka connection,
446
00:35:45.719 --> 00:35:50.320
especially with the Adams letter. We
were going to see a little bit
447
00:35:50.440 --> 00:35:54.039
more, including the Keddy Cabin murders
and things that happened or occurred in that
448
00:35:54.119 --> 00:35:58.880
particular area, but I think that
this may or may not have also been
449
00:35:58.920 --> 00:36:05.320
associated with the Santa Rosa hitchhiker murders. On February twenty sixth, nineteen seventy
450
00:36:05.320 --> 00:36:08.320
one, Linda Kynes two miles south
of Anguin, twenty seven miles north of
451
00:36:08.400 --> 00:36:13.880
Napa, California. So again back
in that Napa area where Hartnell was they
452
00:36:13.880 --> 00:36:17.719
were a PUC student again. Body
was found in a ravine covered by logs
453
00:36:17.719 --> 00:36:22.800
and debris, just like Marie Antsey. I'm sorry, anstay two hundred and
454
00:36:22.800 --> 00:36:28.480
fifty feet from the car off Howell
Mountain Road. The car was unlocked,
455
00:36:28.480 --> 00:36:31.920
with small portable radio still playing in
the front seat. There is a radio
456
00:36:32.400 --> 00:36:37.679
relation. I believe that Jack's radio
license is expired by nineteen seventy one.
457
00:36:37.239 --> 00:36:42.199
The purse found inside of the car
bra found neatly folded in line on top
458
00:36:42.239 --> 00:36:45.880
of her windbreaker a few yards away
from the body, which is kind of
459
00:36:45.920 --> 00:36:52.559
like the laundry murders and coats that
I've been tracking throughout these crimes. Parents,
460
00:36:52.639 --> 00:36:57.760
mister and missus George Kaynes, work
at Porterville State Hospital. They are
461
00:36:57.800 --> 00:37:00.880
supposed to show up for a job
at Metal would come club near Saint Elena
462
00:37:01.559 --> 00:37:06.440
or she was supposed to show up
for a job at Meadowood Country Club near
463
00:37:06.480 --> 00:37:10.719
Saint Elena. Her found near her
body was a forty eight star American flag,
464
00:37:12.119 --> 00:37:15.760
two gallon fuel can with the residue
gas and oil mixture, half a
465
00:37:15.800 --> 00:37:21.039
military barracks bag, and a length
of Manila rope. I told myself the
466
00:37:21.079 --> 00:37:23.440
research and fill in the Walter B. Williams, the woodcutter, is a
467
00:37:23.559 --> 00:37:30.920
suspect, so they say noose killed
Linda Napa. A wire was found tightened
468
00:37:30.920 --> 00:37:34.840
around the neck of Linda Christine Kane's
twenty year old co ed whose body was
469
00:37:34.880 --> 00:37:40.119
found Friday. Sheriff Earl Randalls said
on Saturday, although she had been murdered,
470
00:37:40.199 --> 00:37:44.840
he said the specific cause of death
will not be determined until an autopsy
471
00:37:44.880 --> 00:37:47.599
report is made. The body of
miss Cane, Pacific Union College student was
472
00:37:47.599 --> 00:37:52.320
found covered with logs and debris in
a ravine about two miles southwest of the
473
00:37:52.360 --> 00:37:55.320
campus at Anguin. She had been
missing a week. The girl's body was
474
00:37:55.360 --> 00:37:59.760
found about two hundred and fifty feet
from where her car was located off of
475
00:37:59.800 --> 00:38:02.679
how Mountain Road. She was the
first mist She was first missed when she
476
00:38:02.719 --> 00:38:07.519
failed to show up for her part
time job at Meadowood Country Club. About
477
00:38:07.559 --> 00:38:12.000
five hundred students and faculty members from
the college joined in a search of the
478
00:38:12.000 --> 00:38:16.400
brushy hills around Anguin a renewed search
by deputies discovered one foot sticking out from
479
00:38:16.400 --> 00:38:21.400
the ravine debris. Officers said there
was no connection between the death of Miss
480
00:38:21.519 --> 00:38:24.599
Keynes of Porterville and that of another
co ed, Sharon K. Wilson.
481
00:38:24.920 --> 00:38:30.039
The body of Miss Wilson, twenty
of Conquered and Humboldt State College co ed,
482
00:38:30.360 --> 00:38:32.360
was found last Tuesday at the mouth
of the Mad River near Arcada.
483
00:38:32.519 --> 00:38:37.719
Arcada is about two hundred miles north
of Napa. Philip Mitchell Kohler, eighteen
484
00:38:37.760 --> 00:38:40.760
year old dairy worker, is charged
with stabbing Miss Wilson to death. I
485
00:38:40.960 --> 00:38:45.440
don't have any information that suggests whether
or not they were able to secure that
486
00:38:45.480 --> 00:38:50.400
conviction and that he was actually imprisoned
for this. It just kind of goes
487
00:38:50.440 --> 00:38:54.920
blank at that point. Well,
and that just on the onset of seeing
488
00:38:54.960 --> 00:39:00.559
all this, it looks like that
is quite the kodabules. So this is
489
00:39:00.559 --> 00:39:05.400
probably going to be on a very
near future list to do that now,
490
00:39:05.480 --> 00:39:09.239
because I know I've done Marion State
and Marion state he has his reasons.
491
00:39:09.480 --> 00:39:14.519
But anyway, so here we are
well. That brings us to the March
492
00:39:14.559 --> 00:39:17.599
thirteenth, nineteen seventy one, Los
Angeles letter that was mailed stating that there
493
00:39:17.599 --> 00:39:23.960
were seventeen minus seventeen or plus or
I would look at it because he's always
494
00:39:23.960 --> 00:39:27.719
put the hyphen in there, even
if he put a zero for the police
495
00:39:27.760 --> 00:39:31.679
department. So I look at that
like seventeen plus victims. This letter purports
496
00:39:31.719 --> 00:39:36.199
to be written nine days previous to
the Donna last card on March twenty second
497
00:39:36.239 --> 00:39:39.360
of nineteen seventy one, which states
twelve victims. So that must mean that
498
00:39:39.360 --> 00:39:44.320
the Zodiac is taking credit for the
known murders of five people that were found.
499
00:39:44.800 --> 00:39:50.199
There are five murders between the Halloween's
number fourteen and this letter number seventeen
500
00:39:50.480 --> 00:39:53.280
that I was able to track.
On March thirty first of nineteen seventy one,
501
00:39:53.480 --> 00:39:59.599
Stephen Dewhurst writes in his book about
Gladys Gresham in Valeo, I do
502
00:39:59.679 --> 00:40:01.320
have that information that we're going to
come up on, but let me read
503
00:40:01.360 --> 00:40:06.760
this letter from the Zodiac. This
is the Zodiac speaking like I've always said,
504
00:40:06.920 --> 00:40:09.320
I am crack proof. If the
blue mienis are ever going to catch
505
00:40:09.360 --> 00:40:14.119
me. They had best get off
their fat asses and do something, because
506
00:40:14.119 --> 00:40:16.840
the longer they fiddle fart around,
the more slaves I will collect for my
507
00:40:16.960 --> 00:40:22.760
afterlife. I do have to give
them credit for stumbling across my riverside activity,
508
00:40:22.000 --> 00:40:24.920
but they are only finding the easy
ones. They're a hell of a
509
00:40:24.920 --> 00:40:32.159
lot more down there. The reason
that I'm ooh, I hate it ready,
510
00:40:34.400 --> 00:40:38.239
the reason I am writing to the
Times is this. They can't bury
511
00:40:38.280 --> 00:40:44.000
me on the back pages like some
of the others. SFPD hyphen zero,
512
00:40:44.280 --> 00:40:50.599
zodiac hyphen seventeen plus. This letter
was actually accepted in the FBI Foy of
513
00:40:50.639 --> 00:40:53.519
Files as an accepted letter. And
I think I want to go ahead and
514
00:40:53.559 --> 00:40:57.800
do your solve before I read my
information. That way we can get it
515
00:40:57.840 --> 00:41:00.800
in because we've only got about seven
minutes. But Harriet, you have done
516
00:41:00.840 --> 00:41:06.760
a decode on the air mail envelope? Correct? Yes? Yeah, I
517
00:41:06.800 --> 00:41:15.679
did, Okay, this is pretty
yes, well, the airmail envelope came
518
00:41:15.119 --> 00:41:39.199
out as it just says, uh
oh no. Why why she believes that
519
00:41:39.280 --> 00:41:45.599
the airmail envelope actually says I kill
last state Line, Nevada? Who get
520
00:41:45.719 --> 00:41:50.960
Darlene to shoot Attorney General Kennedy got
to get half the next so it was
521
00:41:50.960 --> 00:41:55.000
evidently a very short message, in
which case he's already now taking claim for
522
00:41:55.039 --> 00:42:00.400
having killed Last, which this coincides. It comes after her Last goes missing,
523
00:42:00.760 --> 00:42:05.159
and he's now stating he's already killed
her and that he has to get
524
00:42:05.199 --> 00:42:10.719
half the next. We do know
that we've long suspected that he was responsible
525
00:42:10.760 --> 00:42:15.920
for Last, and the finding her
skull near where he lived, uh is
526
00:42:16.519 --> 00:42:23.880
good evidence that supports our thesis right
exactly, And that's what just happened,
527
00:42:24.159 --> 00:42:28.639
you know, a month ago.
So yeah, all right, now,
528
00:42:28.719 --> 00:42:32.800
where does that you want to tell
us? I know, we just covered
529
00:42:32.840 --> 00:42:38.880
that. You want to tell us? Your take on this is that he's
530
00:42:40.199 --> 00:42:46.199
saying that he did kill Last state
Line no Vada, near the roundabout because
531
00:42:46.440 --> 00:42:52.719
she helped get starting to shoot,
you know, his boss, the Attorney
532
00:42:52.760 --> 00:42:57.800
General, General Kennedy. And then
he's saying that they got to get Happa
533
00:42:57.960 --> 00:43:01.320
next as soon as possible. So
that's that's looming in the next couple of
534
00:43:01.440 --> 00:43:07.719
years. He wasn't Attorney general anymore. He was a senator in New York.
535
00:43:07.760 --> 00:43:13.400
Now he's still calling him, he's
still calling him. Technically he was
536
00:43:13.679 --> 00:43:19.000
sator at that point. That's presidential
candidate. Of course. Well, and
537
00:43:19.079 --> 00:43:22.360
I know that we talked Harry.
You had mentioned that the you thought that
538
00:43:22.519 --> 00:43:29.639
the letters you have been decoding were
being misrepresented to us as being a nineteen
539
00:43:29.679 --> 00:43:32.960
sixty nine or nineteen seventy letter when
it was really a nineteen seventy four letter.
540
00:43:34.280 --> 00:43:38.639
But recently you discovered that what's happening
in nineteen seventy four is he's recycling
541
00:43:38.679 --> 00:43:44.400
these messages. Can you explain to
us I've got Can you explain to us
542
00:43:44.440 --> 00:43:50.159
why he's recycling them? It looks
like some of them were part of a
543
00:43:50.199 --> 00:43:54.679
plan A because of what they were
originally doing that goes back decades, and
544
00:43:54.719 --> 00:44:02.599
then something is happening, especially at
Nixon, and so they're recycled, recycled
545
00:44:02.679 --> 00:44:07.239
quite a few. Well, you
told me that you believed. You told
546
00:44:07.280 --> 00:44:09.719
me you believed that he was recycling
them because he's now trying to get Ford
547
00:44:09.880 --> 00:44:14.679
up to date after Nixon's out of
all. That's what I got. That's
548
00:44:14.679 --> 00:44:20.480
what I got just recently for it
is now the vice president and you know
549
00:44:20.559 --> 00:44:27.480
late nineteen seventy four by us Wigson
is resigned, it quits. That's what
550
00:44:27.559 --> 00:44:32.960
I'm seeing I got some amazing,
amazing work coming. All right, well
551
00:44:34.039 --> 00:44:37.159
let's go ahead and let's go ahead
with your solve on the actual letter.
552
00:44:37.239 --> 00:44:40.599
So you did a grill cipher of
the La Times letter? Correct? Yeah,
553
00:44:40.719 --> 00:44:45.679
that one actually didn't take me too
long. Okay, can you read
554
00:44:45.719 --> 00:44:50.920
that. We're down to about four
minutes? Oh sure, it's basically saying,
555
00:44:51.280 --> 00:44:55.639
last now, a big dough r
n C men, cool rock,
556
00:44:55.840 --> 00:45:02.559
state line. Y, So tell
us what that means. That's around about
557
00:45:04.360 --> 00:45:07.800
No, but you you then broke
that down. Tell us what all of
558
00:45:07.840 --> 00:45:14.639
that actually means the full message.
It's it gonna be uh that it's state
559
00:45:15.440 --> 00:45:23.960
okay, yeah, last now a
big big national committee, Republican National Committee
560
00:45:24.039 --> 00:45:31.360
men, state line? Why at
the east line? Roundabout it? So
561
00:45:31.519 --> 00:45:38.880
he's he's saying again, I'm seeing
several times she's a big rock there,
562
00:45:39.800 --> 00:45:45.840
gotcha at least. So it's just
been basically repeating messages that we we have
563
00:45:45.199 --> 00:45:53.159
discovered in other saulves correct. Yeah, that I believe that that's it.
564
00:45:53.320 --> 00:45:58.199
Yes, okay, So I'm gonna
go ahead on then, with the information
565
00:45:58.320 --> 00:46:04.440
I have on this particular letter.
Crackproof is what Zodiac thinks he is.
566
00:46:04.559 --> 00:46:07.639
Now even though he knows there was
no intentional solve to the three forty cipher.
567
00:46:08.000 --> 00:46:13.440
The unusual reference of fiddle and fart
around Jack is from Texas. Salt
568
00:46:13.440 --> 00:46:17.159
beef and fiddle fart around are things
that are well known in it may even
569
00:46:17.239 --> 00:46:22.559
have emanated from Texas. I don't
know. He admits to the Riverside activity.
570
00:46:22.599 --> 00:46:27.239
He's upset because he wasn't on the
front page. The count is now
571
00:46:27.280 --> 00:46:31.760
seventeen plus, leaving you guessing who
he confirms linked to Riverside activity In this
572
00:46:31.880 --> 00:46:36.440
letter, he claims he's crackproof.
He talks about the blue Meanies. That's
573
00:46:36.440 --> 00:46:42.800
going to be a theme in future
future communications. He says, get off
574
00:46:42.840 --> 00:46:46.280
the fat asses, which is like
the gold mining greeting card of your asses
575
00:46:46.400 --> 00:46:51.760
dragging. So we know there's a
definite connection there, fiddle fart around being
576
00:46:51.800 --> 00:46:58.480
a Southern reference, and we're only
finding the easy ones. Yeah, he
577
00:46:58.519 --> 00:47:05.320
gets that from the feetles yellow submarine. What's that you submarine? The cops?
578
00:47:05.719 --> 00:47:08.679
Oh gotcha? So Tim Miller and
the so only finding the easy ones
579
00:47:08.800 --> 00:47:13.000
alludes to Tim Miller and the Zodiac. And for all those that go missing
580
00:47:13.039 --> 00:47:15.960
to never be found, they're a
hell of a lot more down there,
581
00:47:15.000 --> 00:47:20.199
which is more reference, which is
consistent all the way back to Lipstick Killings,
582
00:47:20.800 --> 00:47:23.920
which concludes that seventeen is not the
true number. Author doesn't like being
583
00:47:23.960 --> 00:47:30.360
buried on the back page like others
like who the Patsy's and the suspects,
584
00:47:31.079 --> 00:47:38.559
So I didn't like that. I
did list out all the difference, and
585
00:47:38.599 --> 00:47:43.960
then they pepple from Lompo too.
There's many, he says, others and
586
00:47:44.039 --> 00:47:47.840
more he says, others and more
since nineteen forty five in his communications,
587
00:47:50.559 --> 00:47:53.280
I did. I did break down
the letter, the spelling errors, and
588
00:47:53.480 --> 00:47:57.800
the use and and who he sent
it to. That all of the systems
589
00:47:57.800 --> 00:48:01.079
were the same and consistent with every
thing that we have in the Zodiac communications.
590
00:48:01.599 --> 00:48:05.000
And that pretty much ends it for
