August 2nd August 3rd August 9th I would like to note that in the first two articles it is reported that LE is not convinced that whoever was the killer at LHR and BRS was the writer of the letters and cipher. It was felt that the infomation contained in the letters could have been obtained from witnesses at the two crime scenes. A couple more articles that appeared in the Chronicle about the 408. The first one is from Aug. 10, 1969 page 26 and mentions, towards the end, that a letter was received by the Examiner following the letter with the portion of the cipher. I was not able to find any other mention of the Aug. 1969 letter in the Chronicle. The second article was written Aug.12, 1969 page 6 and delves into the Robert Emmett the Hippie as the solution of the last 18 letters and symbols of the cipher controversary. ]]> 7/31/69 Letter/Cipher to the SF Chronicle Seagull https://forum.zodiackillerciphers.com/community/7-31-69-letter-cipher-to-the-sf-chronicle/sf-chronicle-articles-about-the-july-31-letters/ https://forum.zodiackillerciphers.com/community/7-31-69-letter-cipher-to-the-sf-chronicle/back-of-chronicle-and-examiner-envelopes/ Mon, 15 Apr 2013 06:12:06 +0000 7/31/69 Letter/Cipher to the SF Chronicle Wier https://forum.zodiackillerciphers.com/community/7-31-69-letter-cipher-to-the-sf-chronicle/back-of-chronicle-and-examiner-envelopes/ https://forum.zodiackillerciphers.com/community/7-31-69-letter-cipher-to-the-sf-chronicle/dna-in-ink/ Wed, 03 Apr 2013 08:26:30 +0000 8/16/2010 It was obvious in this letter Zodiac's (felt-tip) pen was running out of ink. This was apparently the first letter he wrote. http://zodiackiller.com/SFCL2HR.html - High Res @ zodiackiller.com The pen runs out of ink, then got strong again, then fades. I have often used felt-tip pens and when they start to run dry, you dab it on your tongue to refresh the ink. Many do this. It will get you a bit more life out of the pen. Not much, but it works...as it did here, I believe. He continues doing this on the envelope, until it runs out altogether and he changes writing utensils. My question is, "with all this DNA stuff--touch DNA etc, would they be able to find DNA on the letter if he did lick the tip"? Of course more DNA would be on the pen, but could there be DNA from the pen/ink on the paper? I think it might be worth looking in to.]]> 7/31/69 Letter/Cipher to the SF Chronicle Tahoe27 https://forum.zodiackillerciphers.com/community/7-31-69-letter-cipher-to-the-sf-chronicle/dna-in-ink/ https://forum.zodiackillerciphers.com/community/7-31-69-letter-cipher-to-the-sf-chronicle/7-31-69-letter-to-the-sf-chronicle-cipher-photos/ Mon, 01 Apr 2013 04:11:43 +0000 ]]> 7/31/69 Letter/Cipher to the SF Chronicle morf13 https://forum.zodiackillerciphers.com/community/7-31-69-letter-cipher-to-the-sf-chronicle/7-31-69-letter-to-the-sf-chronicle-cipher-photos/
