8
00:00:52.679 --> 00:00:55.679
Good Morning, True Seekers and true crime junkies. Welcome back
9
00:00:55.719 --> 00:00:59.079
to another episode of Hit the Roadjack Finding the Zodiac.
10
00:00:59.520 --> 00:01:01.759
Let's WelCom Nolan del Kampa to the show.
11
00:01:02.759 --> 00:01:05.239
Good morning, everybody, Good morning.
12
00:01:05.879 --> 00:01:09.159
I thought I would start out with some interesting information
13
00:01:09.439 --> 00:01:12.120
or a bit of research based on a new case
14
00:01:12.159 --> 00:01:14.519
that i'd oh, not a new case, I suppose a
15
00:01:14.599 --> 00:01:17.760
continued case. Should I say? I actually had a letter
16
00:01:17.799 --> 00:01:22.000
from nineteen fifteen that was being asked to be authenticated
17
00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:24.120
for its time frame, in which case I did what
18
00:01:24.200 --> 00:01:27.000
I could do without them actively sending me the letter.
19
00:01:27.079 --> 00:01:31.359
But they ended up actually sending it overnight for me
20
00:01:31.400 --> 00:01:33.560
to do an examination on it, which caused me to
21
00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:40.280
deep dive into paper research. Yeah, and I've been talking.
22
00:01:40.599 --> 00:01:42.680
I'm pretty sure that I've discussed it on the show.
23
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:47.079
A few times about having been the primary use for
24
00:01:47.159 --> 00:01:53.680
paper before Hurst had gotten his hands on, demolishing basically
25
00:01:53.719 --> 00:01:56.519
that particular part of the market and farms that raised
26
00:01:56.560 --> 00:01:59.719
him way back in the day. Have you heard me
27
00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:02.120
talk about that a little bit.
28
00:02:02.879 --> 00:02:06.560
Yeah, I forgotten that hemp was a big product back
29
00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:10.520
in the day, right, And it was also in our
30
00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:14.280
mainstream food because as it was on the farms, the
31
00:02:14.360 --> 00:02:18.599
animals would actually graze on it, So yeah, it was
32
00:02:18.639 --> 00:02:19.960
literally already.
33
00:02:19.599 --> 00:02:21.879
Being fed through the system, and of course we're eating
34
00:02:21.919 --> 00:02:24.759
those foods, so we're getting these cannabinoids. Like, all the
35
00:02:24.840 --> 00:02:28.719
interesting factors about what hemp used to do really kind
36
00:02:28.719 --> 00:02:30.639
of fell to the wayside because I'm more or less
37
00:02:30.639 --> 00:02:33.800
focused on, you know, the dirtiness of Randolph Hurst in
38
00:02:33.840 --> 00:02:36.439
his logging industry because he made more money off of
39
00:02:36.439 --> 00:02:40.400
wood because hemp was so cheap to farm and make.
40
00:02:42.120 --> 00:02:46.319
So in my particular research that I was looking for,
41
00:02:46.360 --> 00:02:48.560
I'm trying to identify the paper that I'm dealing with,
42
00:02:48.599 --> 00:02:50.759
of course, because it has a very odd pattern to
43
00:02:50.840 --> 00:02:53.400
it which I'd not seen before, very different from the
44
00:02:53.400 --> 00:02:57.599
seventeen eighty seven letter that I authenticated, which that was
45
00:02:57.639 --> 00:03:00.000
actually from a government official. So there was plenty of
46
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:03.039
telltale signs like watermarks from the company that made it.
47
00:03:03.800 --> 00:03:07.439
The actual process of the fiber pressing and the tools
48
00:03:07.560 --> 00:03:10.560
used to make the paper was apparent in the actual
49
00:03:10.960 --> 00:03:13.800
pressing of the paper, so it really allows you to
50
00:03:13.800 --> 00:03:16.879
time date it very accurately. But then as we see
51
00:03:16.879 --> 00:03:20.280
the changes that are happening in paper, they're less identifiable
52
00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:24.240
as they continue to change the process and introduce new things.
53
00:03:24.759 --> 00:03:28.199
But the article that I read that I found in
54
00:03:28.240 --> 00:03:32.159
regards to the hemp, it says that during the eighteen fifties,
55
00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:35.039
a mill in Chatham four Corners, New York, diverged from
56
00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:38.680
the conventional straw rag mix and using the haulings Worth
57
00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:41.719
widening process, they began making a new variety of straw
58
00:03:41.759 --> 00:03:45.400
manila papers called Bogus Manila. Bogus Manila was made of
59
00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:49.919
twenty percent straw and eighty percent hemp or burlap. I
60
00:03:50.000 --> 00:03:55.159
was like, wow, that's a large percentage and really kind
61
00:03:55.159 --> 00:03:57.159
of just took me back to if they were using
62
00:03:57.199 --> 00:04:00.319
that much. And then they go and introduce wood pulp
63
00:04:00.479 --> 00:04:03.800
as a part of the process in making paper. But
64
00:04:03.960 --> 00:04:06.240
it's the wood pulp and the acid in the wood
65
00:04:06.240 --> 00:04:09.560
that actually causes papers to yellow. Become brittle over time
66
00:04:09.639 --> 00:04:14.120
and break and fall apart. So the process that that
67
00:04:14.280 --> 00:04:16.800
Hurst pushed for so that he could make more money,
68
00:04:17.079 --> 00:04:22.800
you know, logging trees for paper, it actually causes the
69
00:04:22.839 --> 00:04:27.120
papers to diminish yellow and become brittle. So I thought
70
00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:29.399
that was all misdirectly.
71
00:04:29.399 --> 00:04:30.600
I've used some resources.
72
00:04:31.399 --> 00:04:34.160
Absolutely as a society, it would have been so much
73
00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:35.040
easier to stay with her.
74
00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:39.399
Yeah, I mean, because it's used for so many things.
75
00:04:39.519 --> 00:04:42.879
And more environmentally save.
76
00:04:43.680 --> 00:04:47.160
Correct and of course we you know, we went through
77
00:04:47.160 --> 00:04:51.519
that whole entire period where lumber pricing went straight through
78
00:04:51.560 --> 00:04:54.759
the roof. So once he gets these farmers so heavily
79
00:04:54.920 --> 00:04:57.920
tact that they can't afford to farm anymore, it's kind
80
00:04:57.920 --> 00:05:02.439
of like, you know, keeping water from our farmers, you know,
81
00:05:02.759 --> 00:05:05.279
midway through the Bakersfield area and stuff like that. Like
82
00:05:05.319 --> 00:05:07.959
they're constantly complaining, like our water needs to stay here
83
00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:10.360
kind of thing, because they're basically a dust bowl. They
84
00:05:10.360 --> 00:05:13.319
don't get enough water and we're giving it to someone
85
00:05:13.319 --> 00:05:17.959
else kind of thing. So I guess Randolph Hurst lobbied
86
00:05:18.000 --> 00:05:21.120
to have hemp taxed, and then evidently it became so
87
00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:23.920
expensive on the farmers they had to just basically quit
88
00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:26.839
doing it altogether, and then it becomes illegalized all the
89
00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:29.639
way up until Trump comes out and was that the
90
00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:34.600
Farm Act was? What was that Act in Trump's first term?
91
00:05:35.319 --> 00:05:38.480
He passed it shortly after coming into his first term,
92
00:05:38.879 --> 00:05:43.199
basically legalizing hemp and the manufacture of hemp so the
93
00:05:43.240 --> 00:05:48.120
farmers can actually manufacture, manufacture all this stuff. Again, it
94
00:05:48.240 --> 00:05:50.800
is definitely cheaper to produce. Again, it was in our
95
00:05:50.839 --> 00:05:53.800
mainstream food because the farm animals were grazing on it.
96
00:05:55.079 --> 00:05:59.680
And obviously since Hurst found it to well, I think
97
00:05:59.720 --> 00:06:02.480
it just goes back to his dirty journalism. Like everything,
98
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:04.920
it seems like this man gets his hands into his
99
00:06:04.959 --> 00:06:09.680
dirty eh my little rant. I mean, get is that
100
00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:18.240
a new chair? It's the same one color. Yeah. I
101
00:06:18.279 --> 00:06:21.439
took the white one up upstairs because I wanted something
102
00:06:21.480 --> 00:06:26.639
that the arms flipped up on for my vanity. Nice
103
00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:32.879
nice catch. I did too. I even got one for
104
00:06:33.000 --> 00:06:34.879
my son in law for his birthday because they were
105
00:06:34.920 --> 00:06:41.920
on sale. I was like, let me take two. Let's see.
106
00:06:42.439 --> 00:06:46.319
Let's move along here, folks, we are on I don't
107
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:50.680
know where Harriet and Lindsay is. Neither have responded. I
108
00:06:50.720 --> 00:06:53.439
hope everybody is okay, but we're going to have to
109
00:06:53.480 --> 00:06:59.399
continue without them. Okay, all right, now, why.
110
00:06:59.319 --> 00:06:59.560
Is my.
111
00:07:01.959 --> 00:07:03.199
I guess you got to turn it on to net.
112
00:07:03.279 --> 00:07:06.000
There we go. Okay, all right. So we left off
113
00:07:06.079 --> 00:07:09.480
last week on Rupert Murdoch and his happenings. I wanted
114
00:07:09.480 --> 00:07:11.879
to continue on with that. Continued to read some of
115
00:07:11.920 --> 00:07:15.639
the history of Murdoch. He seems to fall right in
116
00:07:15.720 --> 00:07:18.839
line with people such as Hirst, so I didn't think
117
00:07:18.879 --> 00:07:22.600
that that research was out of the ordinary to somebody
118
00:07:22.680 --> 00:07:26.000
another news person to complain about. Oh and I did
119
00:07:26.040 --> 00:07:30.720
actually get to at least the John Benet Ramsey article
120
00:07:30.920 --> 00:07:35.680
in the True Crime magazine from people. I'm not going
121
00:07:35.759 --> 00:07:37.959
to really cover it all right now, because I literally
122
00:07:38.040 --> 00:07:39.879
ended up with an entire page of notes on it.
123
00:07:40.279 --> 00:07:42.879
But I did want to say that the individual who
124
00:07:43.040 --> 00:07:46.120
was reaching out to me, I think his name was Casbah,
125
00:07:46.279 --> 00:07:49.199
was trying to convince me that this guy that played
126
00:07:49.240 --> 00:07:54.000
Santa Claus at John Beney Ramsey's house was the killer
127
00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:56.560
he believed he was, even though he had no handwriting
128
00:07:56.680 --> 00:07:58.560
for me to look at to even determined. So I'm
129
00:07:58.560 --> 00:08:03.680
not sure what evidence he thinks makes this guy the well.
130
00:08:03.959 --> 00:08:07.839
I think that Lindsay had said she was speaking to
131
00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:11.399
him in our comments on the show, and she had
132
00:08:11.439 --> 00:08:13.959
said that he mentioned that he had worked with or
133
00:08:14.120 --> 00:08:19.319
was working with, Rupert Murdoch. I was like, hmm, that's interesting.
134
00:08:19.439 --> 00:08:21.879
So we've got somebody who's watching the show. And he
135
00:08:21.920 --> 00:08:23.879
seems a little quirky, like I seen one of his
136
00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:28.279
videos and he's posted up in barely nothing and what
137
00:08:28.360 --> 00:08:30.920
looks like a kid's fort. But he's very much an
138
00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:34.039
older gentleman saying that, you know, things like he doesn't
139
00:08:34.039 --> 00:08:39.559
want people to know he's there. I'm like, oh my gosh. Yeah.
140
00:08:39.759 --> 00:08:40.720
So his his.
141
00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:46.720
On the Ramsey note. My take on that is it
142
00:08:46.759 --> 00:08:49.879
looks like someone was disguising their writing. It's all where
143
00:08:49.960 --> 00:08:50.320
it's not.
144
00:08:53.080 --> 00:08:55.919
No and and that's absolutely true. It isn't until you
145
00:08:55.960 --> 00:08:58.679
get to the third page and about the last paragraph
146
00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:02.360
you see some actual writing that you can tell is
147
00:09:02.559 --> 00:09:06.240
obviously the author's true form of handwriting. It's very much
148
00:09:06.279 --> 00:09:07.519
different pretty much.
149
00:09:07.879 --> 00:09:10.120
I want to say it says something like common sense
150
00:09:10.240 --> 00:09:13.799
or or something like that. But the formation of the
151
00:09:13.960 --> 00:09:17.039
capital letter MS in the middle of lowercase printing, the
152
00:09:17.120 --> 00:09:22.480
size of the lowercase letters, but their capital ms are
153
00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:26.200
consistent with the way Jack writes. And again they're very
154
00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:29.840
different from every other m that's in the actual ransom note.
155
00:09:30.240 --> 00:09:33.120
And that was one of the one of the point.
156
00:09:32.960 --> 00:09:35.000
Is that there's always a possibility too that the person
157
00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:37.320
who wrote the note wasn't the actual killer.
158
00:09:38.559 --> 00:09:41.080
Correct, Absolutely, were people involved.
159
00:09:41.159 --> 00:09:44.679
He knows exactly. I did note that when I was
160
00:09:44.720 --> 00:09:48.799
watching the documentary that they indicated that the killer started
161
00:09:48.799 --> 00:09:51.720
to write the note and he actually addressed it in
162
00:09:51.759 --> 00:09:56.320
the first case to mister and missus Ramsey. Then he
163
00:09:56.480 --> 00:10:00.879
stops writing and begins in the next page with just
164
00:10:01.080 --> 00:10:04.840
John Ramsey. So tells me that John was the hit,
165
00:10:05.120 --> 00:10:09.559
not Patsy, because as he started to write it to them,
166
00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:13.440
then he turns around any directs it just at John Ramsey.
167
00:10:14.480 --> 00:10:17.200
But Bill, it says Bill McReynolds. And that's the guy
168
00:10:17.279 --> 00:10:20.639
that this Kasbob or I think that's what his YouTube
169
00:10:20.720 --> 00:10:25.120
name is believes is the suspect of the Zodiac. But
170
00:10:25.799 --> 00:10:28.200
when I read the article, it actually shows in the
171
00:10:28.320 --> 00:10:32.720
article that he was cleared of DNA. So blatantly ignore
172
00:10:32.840 --> 00:10:36.759
that in lieu of wanting to fit this guy into
173
00:10:36.879 --> 00:10:40.360
your suspect pool is no different than what the entire
174
00:10:40.480 --> 00:10:44.559
article on the Ramsey's really kind of entailed. Or made
175
00:10:44.559 --> 00:10:46.919
me think is that they're there just to muddy the
176
00:10:46.960 --> 00:10:50.480
waters because they report a timeline, but they don't discuss
177
00:10:50.559 --> 00:10:54.120
that they had been excluded from DNA in nineteen ninety seven.
178
00:10:54.519 --> 00:10:57.759
And then they flip flop back and forth. They'll tell
179
00:10:57.799 --> 00:11:00.519
a piece of the Ramsey stories where they, you know,
180
00:11:00.759 --> 00:11:03.399
are claiming they didn't do this, and then they'll flip
181
00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:06.080
over to you know, but this investigator said they had to.
182
00:11:06.200 --> 00:11:08.799
I'm like, oh my gosh, you guys, this is twenty
183
00:11:08.840 --> 00:11:13.039
twenty one. They've been cleared not once but twice by
184
00:11:13.080 --> 00:11:16.759
the DA and charges were never brought against them. And
185
00:11:16.799 --> 00:11:19.519
while they say that they were cleared from DNA in
186
00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:23.039
two thousand and eight, they follow that with a statement
187
00:11:23.159 --> 00:11:28.679
that the some his name's Baden, I don't know who
188
00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:33.279
Baden is, but states that Baden says that DNA's not reliable.
189
00:11:33.360 --> 00:11:37.000
So why do you follow they've been cleared by DNA
190
00:11:37.320 --> 00:11:42.240
with something as confusing as as DNA's not reliable. It's
191
00:11:42.279 --> 00:11:44.639
like you're just purposely confusing America.
192
00:11:45.519 --> 00:11:48.759
Yes, and I think by that time was reliable.
193
00:11:49.679 --> 00:11:52.600
Exact well, and ninety seven it was as well. And
194
00:11:52.679 --> 00:11:55.559
I think the guy's take on it was, oh, well,
195
00:11:55.679 --> 00:11:59.720
DNA could come from the packaging from China. So when
196
00:11:59.720 --> 00:12:03.000
the some packages these clothing and ships them over here,
197
00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:05.600
their DNA could be on it. I mean, come on now,
198
00:12:05.919 --> 00:12:09.399
as seriously, the DNA was found in her underwear and
199
00:12:09.559 --> 00:12:12.279
inside of her long John's that matched. You're telling me
200
00:12:12.360 --> 00:12:15.039
that one person in China packed both these items and
201
00:12:15.240 --> 00:12:21.360
John Benay just happened to have received them. I don't know,
202
00:12:21.399 --> 00:12:27.919
it's ludicrous. Anything to confuse society, I suppose, so activities
203
00:12:27.919 --> 00:12:30.679
in the United States for Murdoch, he says, made his
204
00:12:30.720 --> 00:12:33.639
first acquisition in the United States in nineteen seventy three
205
00:12:33.679 --> 00:12:37.159
when he purchased the San Antonio Express News. In nineteen
206
00:12:37.200 --> 00:12:39.759
seventy four, Murdoch moved to New York City to expand
207
00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:43.000
into the US market. However, he retained interest in Australia
208
00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:48.720
and Britain. Soon after afterwards, he founded Star, a supermarket tabloid.
209
00:12:48.759 --> 00:12:56.759
Go figure. I was I always but yeah, yeah, And
210
00:12:57.039 --> 00:12:59.720
I think that many of the articles that I have
211
00:12:59.799 --> 00:13:02.759
from I'm the nineteen ninety six era, nineteen ninety seven
212
00:13:02.840 --> 00:13:05.159
era in regards to John Benny Ramsay, like I said,
213
00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:09.759
they were one of those fake tabloids, you know, fake news.
214
00:13:10.960 --> 00:13:12.240
Who are in the Star?
215
00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:16.120
Yeah? Yeah, who gets involved with that? If you're a
216
00:13:16.200 --> 00:13:20.120
serious person about wanting to report the news, I don't
217
00:13:20.200 --> 00:13:24.919
understand any That's all they care about. And in nineteen
218
00:13:24.919 --> 00:13:28.519
seventy six he purchased The New York Post. On fourth
219
00:13:28.559 --> 00:13:31.840
of September nineteen eighty five, Murdoch became a naturalized citizen
220
00:13:31.879 --> 00:13:35.200
to satisfy the legal requirement that only US citizens were
221
00:13:35.200 --> 00:13:37.360
permitted to own US television stations.
222
00:13:38.159 --> 00:13:42.559
But the New York Post does have to reputation.
223
00:13:43.159 --> 00:13:45.639
Well neither does Rupert Murdoch. Every time I mentioned is
224
00:13:45.639 --> 00:13:48.279
that name to somebody, they're like, oh, he's a crook.
225
00:13:48.360 --> 00:13:52.279
I'm like, I wouldn't have known any of this if
226
00:13:52.279 --> 00:13:55.919
it wasn't for Lindsey, I tell you what. In nineteen
227
00:13:55.919 --> 00:13:58.960
eighty seven, Murdock created as global television special the World
228
00:13:59.039 --> 00:14:03.639
Music Video War Words Wow, a special music ceremony award
229
00:14:03.639 --> 00:14:07.679
where winners were chosen by viewers in eight countries. In Australia,
230
00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:10.320
during nineteen eighty seven, he bought The Herald and Weekly
231
00:14:10.399 --> 00:14:14.519
Times Ltd. I guess Australia must not have that same
232
00:14:14.559 --> 00:14:18.279
requirement to be a citizen. In order to control news
233
00:14:18.320 --> 00:14:26.639
media's and outlets because he had to you know, yeah, yeah,
234
00:14:27.120 --> 00:14:33.480
just to be able to own newspapers. Here thought that
235
00:14:33.799 --> 00:14:36.919
the company that his father had once managed. Rupert Murdoch's
236
00:14:36.919 --> 00:14:40.120
twentieth Century Fox bought out the remaining assets of Four
237
00:14:40.159 --> 00:14:45.840
Star Television from Ronald Perlman's Compact Video in nineteen ninety six.
238
00:14:46.360 --> 00:14:50.159
Most of Four Stars Television's library of programs are controlled
239
00:14:50.159 --> 00:14:54.639
by twentieth Century Fox Television today. After Murdoch's numerous buyouts
240
00:14:54.720 --> 00:14:58.120
during the buyout era of the eighties, News Corporation had
241
00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:02.039
built up financial debts of set billion, much from SkyTV
242
00:15:02.159 --> 00:15:05.399
in the UK. Despite the many assets that were held
243
00:15:05.399 --> 00:15:08.120
by News Corps. The high levels of debt caused Murdoch
