00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:55.759
Good morning, True seekers and true crime junkies. Welcome back
9
00:00:55.759 --> 00:00:59.079
to another episode of Hit the Roadjack Finding the Zodiac.
10
00:00:59.399 --> 00:01:02.320
I'd like to welcome Harriet Soouchet to the show today.
11
00:01:03.799 --> 00:01:06.480
Yes, good morning, Good morning.
12
00:01:06.560 --> 00:01:07.400
How are you doing.
13
00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:12.519
Oh I'm doing fine, but my phone is acting weird
14
00:01:13.280 --> 00:01:13.760
right before.
15
00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:18.719
Hopefully, well, hopefully it sticks with us. We can't have
16
00:01:18.799 --> 00:01:20.599
that going on the fritz. It's all we've got.
17
00:01:21.920 --> 00:01:24.560
Yeah, it wanted me to play the candy app games.
18
00:01:24.719 --> 00:01:27.439
I was like, what, I had to turn off the phone.
19
00:01:27.719 --> 00:01:30.799
I don't do those things anyways, you have We're gonna
20
00:01:30.840 --> 00:01:31.879
have a great show.
21
00:01:33.400 --> 00:01:35.920
Yes we are. We have some very interesting things going
22
00:01:35.959 --> 00:01:38.400
on today. At the top of the laundry and research
23
00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:41.000
list is a YouTuber comment. Now, of course I don't.
24
00:01:41.159 --> 00:01:43.519
It doesn't actually give me a name for this individual.
25
00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:46.799
It's at user FH four NB. I like that my
26
00:01:46.879 --> 00:01:51.120
initials are in their username eight x W three V. Anyways,
27
00:01:51.159 --> 00:01:54.719
they said, been saying it for years, Zodiac cases is
28
00:01:55.079 --> 00:01:59.319
FBI cases. Good job, na net. Now I'm not sure
29
00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:02.040
what they mean by Zodiac cases is FBI?
30
00:02:03.959 --> 00:02:09.520
That was That was my comment. That's your comment, Yeah,
31
00:02:09.680 --> 00:02:12.439
and let me put in my name. But anyways, yeah,
32
00:02:12.479 --> 00:02:13.319
that's my comment.
33
00:02:14.439 --> 00:02:19.439
Oh nice, Well then I'm asking the right person. What
34
00:02:19.479 --> 00:02:21.919
do you mean, yes cases.
35
00:02:23.400 --> 00:02:25.719
Well, we've been saying that for the longest time, and
36
00:02:25.800 --> 00:02:28.680
every time it shows up, you got the you know,
37
00:02:28.919 --> 00:02:31.919
even Dennis was saying these these been e f site
38
00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:35.719
cases because he got the FBI biles that have all
39
00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:45.000
the evidence. So people were look, well below. What I'm
40
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:48.000
going with is that, you know, tom Boy and Crew
41
00:02:48.680 --> 00:02:51.840
and all these other people were claiming that it's only
42
00:02:52.080 --> 00:02:56.840
San Francisco, Nea, you know, local jurisdictions cases, but you know,
43
00:02:56.919 --> 00:03:00.520
you keep saying that the FBI has the evidence, so
44
00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:02.840
it's their cases all along.
45
00:03:03.919 --> 00:03:07.719
Right, right, and and literally speaking, when you cross reference
46
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:11.960
these letters from different states, once it crosses the state jurisdiction,
47
00:03:12.080 --> 00:03:16.080
it becomes FBI to begin with. So a serial killer
48
00:03:16.319 --> 00:03:20.240
would also be would also be FBI. You know, they
49
00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:23.479
would have automatic jurisdiction. It's no longer a case of
50
00:03:23.479 --> 00:03:26.759
a single killing that occurred in a town for local jurisdiction.
51
00:03:27.240 --> 00:03:31.680
We have multiple killings in several jurisdictions, and I would
52
00:03:31.719 --> 00:03:33.960
think that that's when the FBI is actually called in.
53
00:03:35.439 --> 00:03:35.960
Mm hmmm.
54
00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:39.280
And it's funny that you mentioned and brought up Tom Voight,
55
00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:42.159
because you're gonna love this. So I'm sitting here the
56
00:03:42.199 --> 00:03:46.280
other day and I get I get a notification from
57
00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:49.680
my message board and it's Tom. It says it's Tom
58
00:03:49.759 --> 00:03:55.039
Voight who is requesting membership to the board. And I thought,
59
00:03:55.560 --> 00:03:59.199
that's rather that's rather odd. First off, we are not
60
00:03:59.400 --> 00:04:01.919
Tom Voyd's favorite people by any means. He did not
61
00:04:02.039 --> 00:04:05.599
give two x or shits about Dennis Kaufman. He doesn't
62
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:09.360
believe Jack Terrence is the suspect or a good suspect,
63
00:04:09.439 --> 00:04:12.159
if you will, for the Zodiac killer cases, even though
64
00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:15.879
we have the most evidence on any one person there is.
65
00:04:17.079 --> 00:04:21.160
So I emailed and I asked, you know, what's your intentions?
66
00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:24.600
I know we're not your favorite people, what are your
67
00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:28.560
intentions for applying to my message board? Which I did
68
00:04:28.600 --> 00:04:30.560
not get a response to, and I thought it was
69
00:04:30.600 --> 00:04:33.319
interesting because the email address that's being used for this
70
00:04:33.759 --> 00:04:38.560
is posting hyphen sinker zero. It looks like zero l
71
00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:45.279
or zero I at iCloud dot com. So clearly posting
72
00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:49.040
sinker sounds like somebody nefarious who wants to come in
73
00:04:49.240 --> 00:04:50.720
and sink our posts.
74
00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:58.480
Right, yes, yes, you know the old time of inflaming
75
00:04:58.519 --> 00:05:03.959
the message board. That was their tactic.
76
00:05:05.360 --> 00:05:08.160
Well, so either this so either this isn't tom vod.
77
00:05:08.279 --> 00:05:10.680
I mean, I highly doubt he's requesting to be on
78
00:05:10.800 --> 00:05:12.759
my message board. There's not a lot going on there.
79
00:05:12.839 --> 00:05:14.839
Terry does some posting still, and I put up the
80
00:05:14.920 --> 00:05:18.160
new videos each time they come out, but I don't
81
00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:21.160
really actively use it anymore since I'm doing the podcast
82
00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:24.720
and getting the information out this way. People are welcome
83
00:05:24.759 --> 00:05:27.000
to go to the message board and ask questions. I'd
84
00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:32.360
be happy to answer them. It's at web. Uh what
85
00:05:32.560 --> 00:05:38.480
is that toolbox? Website? Toolbox? Yeah, yeah, you can look
86
00:05:38.519 --> 00:05:43.120
at a while, but I know it, right, Yeah, I
87
00:05:43.199 --> 00:05:46.199
don't know it. Like I said, everything is on auto right.
88
00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:48.639
You just click a bookmark and it takes you to it.
89
00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:50.240
And I don't even have to know it anymore, but
90
00:05:50.319 --> 00:05:54.720
I believe it's a netb website toolbox. But either way,
91
00:05:54.920 --> 00:05:56.959
I thought it was interesting. If it's not Tom Voyd,
92
00:05:57.079 --> 00:05:59.240
he is welcome to reach out and say somebody's trying
93
00:05:59.240 --> 00:06:01.639
to scam us, but that's typically what's going on. Like
94
00:06:01.720 --> 00:06:03.920
I said, I don't believe that Tom Vod is actively
95
00:06:03.959 --> 00:06:06.079
attempting to be a member of my message board by
96
00:06:06.079 --> 00:06:09.319
any means. It's just interesting that the person has used
97
00:06:09.360 --> 00:06:11.839
Tom Voight's name, and I'm not sure if they've spelled
98
00:06:11.879 --> 00:06:14.079
it correctly. How do you spell Void's last name?
99
00:06:14.120 --> 00:06:20.839
Again, I believe it's the OIGT, but I've also seen
100
00:06:20.920 --> 00:06:25.360
it spelled b O I G HD, and I think
101
00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:27.279
that's how Jack spelled.
102
00:06:26.920 --> 00:06:27.639
It too, so.
103
00:06:29.160 --> 00:06:32.319
That's how it's spelt on this particular request v O
104
00:06:32.480 --> 00:06:34.399
I g h T. And I do have the option
105
00:06:34.519 --> 00:06:36.959
to ban this person because clearly, I mean, if it's
106
00:06:37.040 --> 00:06:39.920
Tom Voyd and he wants to have some questions answered,
107
00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:42.240
then I am not opposed to that. But if it's
108
00:06:42.279 --> 00:06:44.759
somebody pretending to be Tom Voyd just to inflame us
109
00:06:44.920 --> 00:06:48.360
or to you know, cause more drama, be one of
110
00:06:48.399 --> 00:06:51.000
those trolls that we talk about, than Tom BOYD should know,
111
00:06:51.079 --> 00:06:53.959
somebody's out there impersonating him and attempting to, you know,
112
00:06:54.199 --> 00:06:58.279
mess with us again. Anyways, next order of business. At
113
00:06:58.319 --> 00:07:00.839
this point, I was extremely excited. I received a letter
114
00:07:00.959 --> 00:07:03.000
back from somebody who has been in prison for more
115
00:07:03.040 --> 00:07:06.839
than thirty years. I did a handwriting case that identified
116
00:07:07.000 --> 00:07:09.839
a police officer who had removed a vial of blood
117
00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:17.000
from evidence and in the case that actually where he
118
00:07:17.160 --> 00:07:21.319
was convicted, they had used DNA and found or claimed
119
00:07:21.319 --> 00:07:23.439
to have found his DNA at the scene of the crime,
120
00:07:24.040 --> 00:07:28.600
and he had in the testimony the technician who had
121
00:07:28.920 --> 00:07:31.680
withdrew the blood had indicated there were two vials that
122
00:07:31.720 --> 00:07:34.360
were taken, one for DNA typing and one for whether
123
00:07:34.439 --> 00:07:36.720
or not there was drugs and alcohol in the person system.
124
00:07:36.839 --> 00:07:40.680
So two vials had been taken. However, the police officer
125
00:07:40.759 --> 00:07:43.000
who had removed one of the bials, and that's the
126
00:07:43.079 --> 00:07:46.160
handwriting that I made. The identification on the evidence logs
127
00:07:46.199 --> 00:07:50.480
were completely skewed. There was more than one, there were rasures,
128
00:07:50.600 --> 00:07:54.519
there was wide out, there was replaced information. So I'm
129
00:07:54.519 --> 00:07:57.199
looking at three different evidence logs, but the one that
130
00:07:57.480 --> 00:08:02.279
is really in question has the police officer's handwriting on
131
00:08:02.399 --> 00:08:05.079
it stating that he removed one vile of blood and
132
00:08:05.240 --> 00:08:07.800
then attempted to state there was only ever one vial
133
00:08:07.879 --> 00:08:11.680
of blood that had been withdrawn. However, the technician indicated
134
00:08:11.800 --> 00:08:14.199
in his own testimony, and I was sent that testimony
135
00:08:14.279 --> 00:08:17.040
to see it, that two vials had actually been drawn.
136
00:08:17.759 --> 00:08:20.839
So where did the second vile go? Is the question? Well?
137
00:08:21.120 --> 00:08:25.680
The individual had also sent the DNA reports to an
138
00:08:25.759 --> 00:08:30.199
independent lab who found that the degradation of the blood
139
00:08:30.279 --> 00:08:33.279
sample was identical between what was left at the crime
140
00:08:33.360 --> 00:08:35.559
scene and what was in the vial. And the only
141
00:08:35.600 --> 00:08:37.879
way this could be possible for them to have exactly
142
00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:41.120
the same degradation is if the blood at the scene
143
00:08:41.120 --> 00:08:43.279
of the crime was the actual blood that was in
144
00:08:43.399 --> 00:08:46.000
the vial. So I got a letter from him. I'm
145
00:08:46.159 --> 00:08:49.519
very excited. It's giving me goosebumps, it says dear miss Bartow.
146
00:08:49.639 --> 00:08:52.639
On seven fifteen, twenty twenty four, I filed petition for
147
00:08:52.759 --> 00:08:55.720
writ of habeas corpus in the Santa Clara County Superior
148
00:08:55.799 --> 00:08:59.279
Court to vacate my conviction under newly discovered evidence of
149
00:08:59.360 --> 00:09:02.159
actually innes since and I want to thank you again,
150
00:09:02.279 --> 00:09:04.279
Thank you so much, and I will write you more
151
00:09:04.320 --> 00:09:07.600
when I receive a response from the court. Oh, my goodness.
152
00:09:07.799 --> 00:09:11.320
If I am able to assist this individual in any
153
00:09:11.399 --> 00:09:15.480
way of clearing himself of it and him actually being
154
00:09:15.559 --> 00:09:18.360
innocent of a crime that he has spent more than
155
00:09:18.440 --> 00:09:21.399
thirty years in prison for, then I think that I
156
00:09:21.519 --> 00:09:24.600
have actually done my job, and I feel great about that.
157
00:09:24.799 --> 00:09:27.720
So I'm looking forward to his response once he gets
158
00:09:27.759 --> 00:09:28.840
a response from the court.
159
00:09:30.480 --> 00:09:34.559
Well, great to you girl. Okay, Well, all I did
160
00:09:34.720 --> 00:09:35.200
was my job.
161
00:09:35.759 --> 00:09:38.120
I mean, I don't even want to have All I
162
00:09:38.200 --> 00:09:40.960
did was my job, which was identify the handwriting. And
163
00:09:41.279 --> 00:09:43.399
I hope that that is in some way going to
164
00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:45.919
at least get him before the court again to be
165
00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:48.200
able to present the evidence of the DNA and the
166
00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:51.759
things that clearly are going to show that he was
167
00:09:52.039 --> 00:09:55.159
set up, basically, that this vile of blood had been
168
00:09:55.240 --> 00:09:59.480
taken and used at the crime scene, then recollected and
169
00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:04.679
presented as evidence for him being culpable for the murder
170
00:10:04.720 --> 00:10:08.279
when he wasn't. All right, So that brings us to
171
00:10:08.360 --> 00:10:11.919
the SLA letter. Yeah, this is where things start getting interesting.
172
00:10:12.480 --> 00:10:15.840
So February fourteenth of nineteen seventy four, the SLA letter
173
00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:19.519
is received. It's postmarked February third of nineteen seventy four,
174
00:10:19.960 --> 00:10:22.480
and it says, dear mister editor, did you know that
175
00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:30.159
the initials SLA Cymbionese Liberation Army spell sla an old
176
00:10:30.320 --> 00:10:33.879
Norse word meaning kill a friend. And it's sent to
177
00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:38.600
the editor of the San Francisco Chronicle, San Francisco, California. Now,
178
00:10:39.720 --> 00:10:41.840
this is at the point in time when we see
179
00:10:41.919 --> 00:10:46.000
Patty Hurst being abducted by this SLA. This is when
180
00:10:46.080 --> 00:10:48.320
we start to see the letters going out to Hurst
181
00:10:48.360 --> 00:10:51.399
about where we know where your daughter is, all of
182
00:10:51.480 --> 00:10:53.320
the great things that are going on at this time.
183
00:10:53.399 --> 00:10:56.320
That wraps up the Zodiac around the media and Hurst,
184
00:10:56.519 --> 00:10:59.759
like we've been talking about. So the initials SLA is
185
00:11:00.039 --> 00:11:04.360
were the Symbionese Liberation Army the Norse word for kill
186
00:11:04.600 --> 00:11:08.919
a friend, so we again a citizen a friend. Like,
187
00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:11.919
the sign offs were all pretty much similar to what
188
00:11:12.000 --> 00:11:15.080
we're seeing going on with the Zodiac, and the writing
189
00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:19.000
is most like the Scorpion writings to John Walsh, but
190
00:11:19.200 --> 00:11:25.360
also like the nineteen letter, Yeah, SLA equals well. Now,
191
00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:28.600
was there a Manson family connection to the s l A.
192
00:11:30.240 --> 00:11:32.919
There's a lot of people that say there were. It
193
00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:36.840
seems to be an indirect connection, especially in my view now,
194
00:11:37.360 --> 00:11:40.519
because he was known as you know, like the family,
195
00:11:40.960 --> 00:11:44.240
and then you have Lightning amen as being brought up
196
00:11:44.320 --> 00:11:47.519
in a lot of the ones that I've done recently,
197
00:11:47.600 --> 00:11:50.200
We've done a show or two that brings up Lightning
198
00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:56.480
amen the family. So there's there is an indirect connection.
199
00:11:56.840 --> 00:12:01.320
You know, Manson was down there with lightning a man
200
00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:04.759
his ranch, you know, pretty far apart, I think, but
201
00:12:04.960 --> 00:12:10.799
still in the San Bernardino Bernardino County region. So yeah,
202
00:12:10.960 --> 00:12:14.720
the long winded answer is there seems to be some
203
00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:17.559
kind of connection right.
204
00:12:18.000 --> 00:12:20.600
Well, and and here when it signs off a friend.
205
00:12:21.399 --> 00:12:24.279
We saw that in Black Dahlia and in I labeled
206
00:12:24.320 --> 00:12:26.720
it as cute twenty. I'm not sure what communication that
207
00:12:26.879 --> 00:12:28.759
is anymore, but I believe it was the arm und
208
00:12:28.840 --> 00:12:33.480
Roebliss connection where he signed off a friend, the fellow
209
00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:38.320
students to Patricia Howtse and a citizen by Zodiac. So
210
00:12:38.440 --> 00:12:42.200
all of these are wrapping themselves around each other. Now.
211
00:12:42.279 --> 00:12:46.559
The envelope itself, like I said, it is sent to
212
00:12:46.639 --> 00:12:50.440
the editor San Francisco Chronicle, San Francisco, California. There is
213
00:12:50.759 --> 00:12:52.919
a date at the bottom left hand corner that says
214
00:12:52.960 --> 00:12:55.799
February nineteen seventy four. I'm not sure if this is
215
00:12:56.320 --> 00:12:59.200
Zodiac's writing it is similar to the writing that is
216
00:12:59.399 --> 00:13:01.840
on the act ctual letter itself, or if it was
217
00:13:01.919 --> 00:13:05.440
something that was written by law enforcement or FBI afterwards.
218
00:13:05.720 --> 00:13:08.120
But I still did make a comparison with that. It
219
00:13:08.279 --> 00:13:10.679
is a twenty six year anniversary note of the Gladys
220
00:13:10.799 --> 00:13:14.840
Kern's death. Zodiac is gone until September of nineteen seventy four,
221
00:13:14.960 --> 00:13:17.039
and Patty Hurst was a huge story maker in this
222
00:13:17.200 --> 00:13:20.360
movement and Daddy Hurst, as I wrote, Daddy Hurst made
223
00:13:20.399 --> 00:13:23.080
a huge amount of money selling papers over it. I'm
224
00:13:23.120 --> 00:13:26.039
sure now this letter is not on the confirm list
225
00:13:26.120 --> 00:13:29.600
of the FBI FOYA communications from the Zodiac Killer, but
226
00:13:29.919 --> 00:13:32.720
everybody has agreed, or at least the document examiners had
227
00:13:32.759 --> 00:13:35.879
agreed that this was another communication written by the Zodiac.
228
00:13:36.600 --> 00:13:39.919
The SLA Manifesto for sale in a magazine store in Stockholm,
229
00:13:39.960 --> 00:13:43.240
Sweden in August of two thousand and eight. So we
230
00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:46.200
see things that have happened in Sweden, though I have
231
00:13:46.360 --> 00:13:49.559
not introduced those into this podcast. There were murders over there.
232
00:13:49.919 --> 00:13:52.759
They were camp murders where bodies were stacked on top
233
00:13:52.799 --> 00:13:56.919
of each other. They were couples that were murdered. I
234
00:13:57.000 --> 00:13:58.720
want to say there was four or six of them
235
00:13:58.799 --> 00:14:01.320
that were camping that were killed, but I didn't actually
236
00:14:01.480 --> 00:14:04.000
enter that. And then I told myself to research Patty
237
00:14:04.080 --> 00:14:07.320
Hurst's involvement since this maybe a news promoting and newspaper
238
00:14:07.399 --> 00:14:12.679
selling event. Did this was this something collectively decided to
239
00:14:13.000 --> 00:14:17.080
have happened with Patty Hurst just to make more money,
240
00:14:17.399 --> 00:14:20.840
just to sell more newspapers. And I don't put anything
241
00:14:20.879 --> 00:14:23.480
past these people, even this whole Trump thing that has
242
00:14:23.519 --> 00:14:25.600
gone on. It's not that I've been listening to the news.
243
00:14:25.720 --> 00:14:28.000
I barely heard about it from a friend my text
