      I lived in the East Bay (1982 to 1990ish). There is a theory that the killings were done by a small group of "dedicated" Satanist. They had connections with crimes on the Presidio. And the connections get really strong as the "peek thru the pines" postcard location is investigated. Kathleen Johns (kidnapped with her infant daughter by the Zodiac) told police that he kept referring to "we, and us" when talking to her....

    Scared out of his mind he got on the radio. The police were called, but it turned out the shooter was an armed security guard in the industrial park next to the refinery who was shooting at jack rabbits. He didn't know anything about the killings that had taken place just up the road.

    I think the Zodiac was a few people under 1 alias.
    Firstly, it would make the letter talking about control make sense. The letter could have been written by a member of the group that didn’t want to continue and only had one chance to show his regret.
    Secondly, his multiple different ways of killings could be the different styles of killing across different people.

      Star.....HIS BROTHER TURNED HIM IN. It was ONLY after his family reported that it might be the brother did they tie him to the letters. Then where he lived, what they found where he lived. His writings as a college instructor and writings found where he lived in that shack. The police profile was so off that it was basically useless. Take a look at that police profile from so-called "witnesses" and take a look at the killer when he was arrested. Not even close. In fact eye witnesses actually hampered the search.

    In my opinion, the Zodiac killer was a cultist. In both cracked ciphers he referred to his victims as his slaves in the afterlife. Perhaps he was part of a cult or neopaganism group in San Francisco. He also references "The Dangerous Game" as if he was a hunter hunting humans as elusive beasts. I think that locating the cult that shares his beliefs and seeing if they had a following in San Francisco in the 1960s and 70s might help investigators find him. Perhaps (though it's unlikely) the cult has a ledger of members with donations. Cult leaders are often frauds who manipulate vulnerable and impressionable people to pay them money and serve them as gods. If you locate the cult you may locate the Zodiac.

      THIS IS A GREAT STRATEGY FOR CATCHING THE ZODIAC KILLER. ALONG WITH MY SUGGESTION. JUST LIKE THE LOCAL F.B.I. AND THE POLICE DETECTIVES FOUND THE BOSTON MARATHON KILLERS. USING THE LOCAL BUSINESS CAMRAS. FRAME BY FRAME. THE F.B.I. AND TOP DETECTIVES CAN ASK NASA TO BACK TRACK ON TOP VIEWS OF EARTH. FROM EXACTLY WHAT TIMES THE SHOOTINGS TOOK PLACE OF THE COUPLE IN LOVERS LANE. FROM WHERE THE ZODIAC KILLER WALKS FROM. WHERE THE ZODIAC KILLER WALKS TO AFTER HE SHOOTS THE VICTIMS. WITH TOP VIEWS OF THE ZODIAC KILLER. IF HE GO'S TO A CAR. FROM TOP VIEWS FROM THE NASA SATALITES THEY CAN FOLLOW THE CAR. THEN USE ALL LOCAL BUSINESS CAMRAS TO GET A VIEW OF THE FACE OF THE ZODIAC KILLER. I DON'T BELIEVE THE ZODIAC KILLER WAS WEARING A FACE MASK WHEN HE USED THE PAY PHONE TO CALL THE NEWS CHANNEL. THAT WOULD HAVE LOOKED TOO SUSPICIOUS. BY USING THE TOP VIEWS FROM THE NASA SATALITES. THIS IS HOW ACTOR BILL COSBY FOUND OUT WHO EXACTLY KILLED HIS SON ON MULHOLLAND DRIVE. NOW THEN ALSO USING ALL LOCAL CITY CAMERAS THIS IS HOW THE POLICE DETECTIVES AND THE F.B.I. FOUND THE BOSTON MARATHON KILLERS. THE ZODIAC KILLER MIGHT STILL BE ALIVE. ALTHOUGH HE MIGHT BE OLD. HE STILL NEEDS TO BE ARRESTED. ITS UNKONWN HOW MANY INNOCENT PEOPLE HE HAS KILLED SINCE HE STOPPED CALLING IN HIS CRIMES. THIS IS MY TAKE ON HOW THEY CAN CATCH THE ZODIAC KILLER. PLUS ONCE THEY ARE GETTING CLOSE TO FINDING THIS SUSOECT. THEY CAN INVESTIGATE AT ALL LOCAL PEOPLE THAT ENJOY DOING CEPHERS OR USING CODING TO SPEAK IN WRITTING.

    A lot of times when there's a long break in murders and then start again is usually when they are incarcerated on non related charges.. creepy!!

    I've heard so many different theories on why he stopped killing but I've never heard anyone say this. Maybe he was like terminally sick and knew he only had so long left to live so he figured he was gonna do anything at all that he wanted to do since there'd never be any repercussions for him, even if he had gotten caught what would it have mattered if he was terminally sick? So he decided he was gonna try killing as many people as possible and send the cops and the media ciphers that even if they were solved still wouldn't be helpful cause he knew that by the time they cracked the codes if they cracked the codes he'd already be dead.

      Interesting idea. My theory is that he realized how lucky he had gotten to not be caught and quit while he was ahead.

    Maybe the Zodiac Killer was a serial killer who actually got caught, but under a different identity, but if that's not the case and someone would want to continue the investigation, they should look for someone who's around 70-90, seeing as he was described as "around the 20s or 30s". OR maybe they are well and truly dead, because it's suspected he belonged in the rubber room, he could have committed suicide once he decided he had enough slaves.

    In my theory... I believe Zodiac Died in the 70s, In saying that possibly someone continued his work.

      I think one day Science will prove that it was in fact Gary Francis Poste. Remember and mark my comment.
