(P.s.: also a Ken Bloch is present there…Bloch was the name of the youth probation service family living in the building in Presidio, the one where Z had been going up those 4-5 steps after the Stine murder"

One of the Guys on this list wound up living in the SF Bay area. He was stocky, wore glasses , had a full face,looked similar to the Berryessa sketch, was in the service, and most interesting of all, in 1967, his parents lived within 1 mile of these Kathleen Johns like attacks that happened in Fall,1967-
viewtopic.php?f=34&t=44

I started a thread about him, and included a edited photo of him here a week or two ago,but deleted the thread for reasons I cant discuss. I am VERY INTERESTED in him as a suspect! If you want his name, PM me. He appeared in the 66 Ramona HS yearbook,but he did NOT graduate there,instead, transferred to a high school in the Van Nuys area.

By the way, we should be considering guys with those initials from 64-66 in my opinion,at Ramona HS, Riverside Polytechnic HS,and Riverside City College

Okay, here is one guy off your list,real interesting:

Name:
Robert Lee Howard
Birth:
28 Jul 1947 – Riverside, California

Name:

Robert L Howard
Social Security #:
557682689
Gender:
Male
Birth Date:
28 Jul 1947
Birth Place:
California
Death Date:
7 Apr 1975
Death Place:
San Francisco

Its the same guy, died pretty young. I would love to know how he died at age 28. Born in Riverside, died in SF, which yearbook is he in,year,class,etc???? His year of death also lines up with the end of confirmed z letters

DEAD END, this guy was a black guy. Back to the drawing board!

Morf:
I think I can share this much with you safely: rh attended Ramona High in the Bates Era; he joined the Navy Reserve after graduation and was stationed near Vallejo; according to Student Records in ’91, he attended RCC in the Fall of 1966; and, after graduating, moved to the Bay Area and attended SF State.

Can you PM me the one you are talking about, and I can tell you which one I am talking about?

Please, me too…promise to be a braaave Z researcher in the future..

QT

DEAD END, this guy was a black guy. Back to the drawing board!

You meaning the Robert Howard from Ramona High or from SF? Cause I think the Robert Howard at Ramona High was not black..

I think you’re wrong, he was definitely black. If you think I aam wrong, find his picture. I located his sister’s photo too,and she too is black.

The guy at Presidio Heights was temporarily black. Should we be looking for a shape shifter?

Maybe the initials "rh" simply stood for Ramona High (as in Occams’ razor)!

I just Googled "nursing programs Riverside City College" and they do have them (LVN and AA). The nursing programs in the ’60’s if any may have been different, however. If the librarians can be contacted, they would remember.

I’m wondering if the gory poem could have been written by a nursing student, in which case such student would probably have been female but could have been male. Can the fabulous researchers who listed all the male names starting with the initials "RH" check nursing students for these initials.

There is something posted (sorry I don’t remember just where) about a man and a woman being seen around the library the night of the murder and I think they were said to be missing during the re-enactment by LE.

Cheri had just become engaged. Could there be a jealous former girlfriend of her fiancée ("beware the wrath of a woman scorned") involved along with a male companion? The note written with the words "Bates Had to Die" make me wonder what other motive there could be if there was any at all.

In re-reading this topic from the beginning and the discussion of names beginning with rh as being the author, I wondered again why anyone would be so foolish as to leave their real initials.

Then, wondering what rh could refer to other than music, right hand (already discussed somewhere) the thought came that maybe the author meant "rh" as in BLOOD. That would fit in with the theme of the poem imo.

Rh is part of anyone’s blood type and is either positive or negative. It is referred to as the RH factor. It stems from the Rhesus monkey IIRC.

If it wasn’t written by a murderer, just someone who wrote a poem, I could see someone staking claim to their "work".

It’s only foolish if they possibly killed someone, otherwise..it might be their own little masterpiece.

In the TOP SECRET Suspect section, there is a lengthy list of RH students & people of interest

Sorry, must have missed that, over and out.

The most obvious explanation is that "rh" refers to the author’s first and last name. But it’s not inconceivable that it refers ONLY to his/her first name (Rhonda, say) or a first and middle name combo: Roy Harold Smith.

I doubt it’s a clue, at any rate – that is, I doubt it’s anything but a name of some kind (first, middle, surname, nickname – whatever).
