Hi Sandy Have you ever given a name to the guy you think is the Zodiac or do you know it yet? I know you've posted his picture but I think I read somewhere that you don't know his name. Dave Hi Dave, Sorry it has taken me so long to respond, I haven't been on the message boards very often lately. I have had clues to his name as being Robert. I do have a last name that I have been looking at and that would be Hernandez. In this particular family there are many Roberts! The name Robert Hernandez alone is like John Smith. Other people have told me that he uses the name Anthony or Tony. He was in a bar in Martinez early 90's , he sat next to my daughters boyfriend and spoke to him briefly. The Boyfriend recognized his face from the picture I took. This man said that he had just finished a job in Vallejo that day. The two workers he had with him were Hispanic , they called him Anthony the other worker called him Tony. He drove a white truck with a sign on the door ----"A-1 Plastering". I found a company with that name in Pleasant Hill Ca. I have several names from license plates that I was able to get checked for the owners names , I am still looking at each and every one of those names. I am working with a detective who worked for Pittsburg PD. He is interested in my suspect for the 12+ murders there, where they had a man who told them that he was the Zodiac and is the killer of those women there. His picture has been ID'd by one of the women that escaped his long knife. The picture she ID'd is my suspect. So now we have a suspect who writes just like Zodiac, is the right age and description. Who is more than likely the same man who stole my clothes line in Napa put the killing costume in my car. He is the same man that followed me to Napa in the winter of 1968. Is also the same man that Kathleen Johns and I picked out in a picture line up. Darlene's family swears that he is the man Darlene was so afraid of. He speaks in a slow deliberate manner , very monotoned, like a robot. He has shot at me , tried to force me off of the road at night many times. After taking his picture and telling him that I have given it to the police, that if he kills me , even if they never find my body , he will be caught for my murder. He has not shot at me again, only tormenting phone calls and notes. He likes to drive by my home, to let me know he is still alive and watching me. Thanks for the profile from Kim Rossmo PHD, I have never seen that before. The red line she drew to mag north pointed to where I was working at that time on Andreus Island at the Spindrift Marina ,just to the right of Gressly Island ( not sure of both spellings) Could be just another one of those odd coincidences.

Hey Sandy, I've heard Lake Herman Road described as 'not well known', 'not used often', etc, especially at night. Just how remote was it back in the late '60's? And was the Blue Rock car park remote as well? Cheers Dave.

It wouldn't be a road that a out of Towner would take. I worked in Vallejo and parked with Buzz Gordon (A Vallejo Cop)many times, but don't remember ever going to Lake Herman or Blue Rock Springs. I lived in Napa so I didn't really know all the places in Vallejo, other than the places that I worked. If Buzz took me to Lake Herman road, I probably didn't know where I was. I just went where ever he took me. We did go to areas that he thought Zodiac would strike, to try and catch him. It is my understanding that the teens all know where to go to park.

I have to say that because Lyndon has studied code breaking for many yrs, I believe his is the only solution. Also Lyndon's solution sounds more like what Zodiac would write. It makes perfect sense to me about the slut youth hotel.
Sounds like it could mean that a woman who has a lot of younger men staying at her residence is thought to be a slut because of it. I can relate to that.
I have many young men who are just my friends who stay in my guest room from time to time, Ricardo being one of them.
Anyone on the outside would think that I am a old cougar who sleeps with many young men. Of course that is not true. I have many male friends who are just friends, most live far away , so I offer them my guest room.
Many are from all over the world who are interested in the Zodiac case and can't afford to fly to Calif. and then have to pay for a motel. I have offered them my home and a Zodiac tour to all of the crime scenes while they are at my home.
The truth of the matter is that I admit to being a "cougar" my boyfriend is 12 yrs younger than I. I have always dated younger men because men my age don't want to the things I love to do, like dance, fish , hunt , camp.
Zodiac could have written about someone very much like myself , oddly enough he put it on a card that has "Sandy" beaches on it. The name "Sandy" has come up a few times in the Zodiac case.
Ricardo's suspect Sandy, I think is a very good one. Was the Celebrity cypher a clue to the suspect Sandy? I do believe that cypher was from Zodiac and that it has another clue to his identity. I can see the abbreviation for the name Robert in the cypher, some detectives felt the Zodiac's first name was Robert. That name just happens to fit the "my name cypher" and one other unsolved cypher.
Zodiac could be writing about some other woman like myself who he believes is a slut

The reference to "Sandy Beaches" on the Celebrity Cypher postcard could be a clue. Here is a link to the Project MK-ZODIAC report which was done in 2009 which explained the possible connections between "Sandy" and the Celebrity Cypher. Speculation Based Upon the Story of "Sandy"www.mk-zodiac.com/sandy2.htmlThis report explained that, according to the police reports, there was a person of interest who lived on Sandy Beach Road in Vallejo in 1969. You did not find out about "Sandy" until the Project MK-ZODIAC report in 2009. It is possible that you could have met "Sandy" in the 1960s. You could have met "Sandy" at a cocktail lounge at which you worked. Or you could have met "Sandy" at a sandy beach in California. "Sandy" could have used a different name. "Sandy" may or may not have been the Zodiac killer.

Thank you DavidUK.Here is a link to a Zodiac like communication sent on this past "Thanksgiving". The tone and most of the lettering except for the lower case letter g are like Zodiac's. To top it off I saw that there were two more exact letters mailed , one to San Jose and two more down south. We know that the number 3 was one of Zodiac's favorite numbers and he likes holidays. I don't believe that there is a real threat intended, but I do believe he craves attention and that these letters were to give him that attention. If in fact these letters were from Zodiac? Some of you might say that if he really wanted the attention he would just start writing "This is the Zodiac". But I rather doubt that he would want to come out from under his rock and let us all know that he is still alive and cause LE to take a look at him with fresh eyes and today's technology. He is still a coward and is afraid to be caught. I think he has written many anonymous letters that have gone undetected as coming from Zodiac.Even a few that were thought to be from a copy cat, I think were really from him. abc7news.com/1625906/

WC,That is so unreasonable for anyone in LE to ask Joe public to do their job! Is it any wonder that Zodiac has not been arrested?

Your suspect looks a lot like a older Paul Holes, very handsome man!
Was he about 60 yrs old in 2000? He isn't anyone I remember ever seeing before.
Can you please tell us why you feel he could be Zodiac? Do you have a paper trail on him that shows where he was living at the time of the known Z crimes? Is his voice monotone and was he stocky, barrel chested in the late 60's,did he wear dark horn rimed glasses?
Is his writing a match to the known Zodiac letters? Did he know Darlene? Sorry for all of the questions , but these questions I believe are important in identifying Zodiac.

Yes, he was in his late 20's in the early 1970s. He lived in Marin Co. In the 60's and 70's. He served in the Vietnam War. He was 5'8 and stocky. He spoke in a monotone, upperclass voice. I believe he wore glasses during that time, i know for certain he did at a later age. I know he assaulted a cab driver in Jan 1969 He was very wealthy He owned a restaurant in the Bay Area He was an American citizen but had ties to Scotland I can connect the Mt Diablo map to his address. I can connect the Eureka postmarked Christmas Card to his house. I'm fairly certain he wore a Zodiac watch He moved away from Bay Area about 1980 He had a Jekyll/Hyde rage I've never seen in someone before.

Devezhi, The man I believe to be Zodiac was older than late 20's in the early 70's. He looked to be 30 in 1968. I went to where the address lead for the Eureka Christmas card. We named that person Sam, Sam has passed away recently.
How are you "fairly" certain that he had a Z watch? Either you saw one on him or you didn't? Are you saying your suspect is Scottish?
What sort of work did he do? Lots of questions, but would like to know as much as I can about your suspect.Did he have a lazy eye and talk very slowly?

There has been a female body found this evening off of Camino "Diablo" RD in Bryon Ca. Near a Sand mine covered with a tarp. The woman could be in her early 40's, she was from San Francisco. No mention as to how she was killed.I have traveled that road many times on my way to Modesto.
Her body was found in a area where a few years ago a man was following lone females on lonely roads at night, would flash his lights and try to get them to pull over or tried to force them off of the road.
Reminded me of Kathleen Johns and of Teresa Colleen Brown, who was forced off of HY 4 in Pittsburg Ca. Then was stabbed to death after she crashed. That was the same road where my suspect tried to force me off the road.
