Pax,nice theory, but if you are going to put forth such a theory you need to come up with victims. Are there any that meet you theory ?

EastCoast,Thanks for your reply.I don't know of any Zodiac victims as far as August 1969.I wanted to point out that- 1. There was a possibility of a window of opportunity for Zodiac to murder on that...

I like the theory, Pax, but it's hard to connect Z to murders that didn't happen. The notion of the August, 1969 victim(s) is certainly a mystery. Perhaps he just invented a new victim couple while...

I agree with Deo. The extra victims probably did not exist - Zodiac just cooked them up for shock value, and to keep everyone playing the guessing game. Manipulative bastard.

Maybe Z is including the surviving victims? If not, and we take Z's claim at face value, then 2 are missing. Bates could be one- from Oct which is one of the months listed I believe. Perhaps the...

Paradice,I think that from December 1968 to October 1969, Zodiac was in full bloom as a murderer.I think he totalled his victims as murders after he adopted the nickname "Zodiac" and...

Very nice theory, and maybe you are right about the murder of Tate-LaBianca. Why would he wait? - No one knows unless the Zodiac self. But he could have waited for the media could calmdown, and then...
