I can’t even begin to comprehend how difficult it must have been for those detectives working these cases to deal with them psychologically. These cases are absolutely brutal. The assailant threw some of them hogtied and still alive down embankments. Total psychopath. No regard for any life but saving their own. For any homicide detectives to have gone through all that it is just incomprehensible how they must deal with it all. I can’t even begin to imagine or even relate to it and I just do surface skimming stuff which chills me to the core at times. If it wasn’t for the victims it’s hard to imagine why anyone would even want to look at this case. It’s evil wicked stuff. Much more shocking than Zodiac. More like EARONS shocking.

There are many assumptions made about Zodiac. Including that there was no sexual aspect to his crimes and that his killings were not sadistic, in the vein of Dennis Rader or JJD, but merely a means to end for publicity and attention seeking. But if he had anything to do with the SHRM cases then those conclusions are thrown out the window. In the case of Davis, which included the witchcraft symbol, she was poisoned with the pesticide strychnine. An utterly horrific and twisted way to kill someone.

That’s a functional assessment and correct. The Zodiac is not the SRHM on the face of it. They are different types of offenders. The Zodiac’s M.O. changes so much that he can’t be identified with it. He can only be identified by his emotional signature – his need to communicate his homicides while taunting LE and including something cryptic alluding to his identity. That is why Oceanside is so fascinating. Zodiac is also a terrorist. None of that can be congruent with the SRHMs. There seems hardly any reason at all to bother thinking they are connected. The Zodiac said he would change his M.O. and some symbol stuff. That’s about it. However, there is one thing that stands out in all this. The elephant in the room. It has to do with chronology and geography. Proximity. Time.

Oceanside (1962), Lompoc (1963), Riverside (1966), Zodiac (68-69), SRHMs (72-78?). It’s like south to north pathway moving through time.

Yes, many offenders were operating in California. I can only imagine all the things we know nothing about and missing people. Yes it has an air of just being a statistical anomaly, but the contemporary Zodiac investigators worked those cases as possible Zodiac cases. So we aren’t seeing things. No doubt they would have been heavily interested in Oceanside if they knew about it. They seem interested enough today to have talked together going by the interviews and reports.

I can also look at all this as just another anomaly that they also happen to guess the ones that would stay unsolved as a group fifty years ago. Very old cold cases. Forensic quality at the time. Ways in which we can explain why that group they looked at still remain unsolved.

Or it’s the one person and like JJD is VR and EAR and ONS? Going from fetish break-ins to kidnapping to rape to sexual homicides. Yet that model can’t explain Zodiac to SRHM any better.

If we accept the forensic psychology and how the traits of a thrill killer and sexual sadist aren’t compatible within one person, then we need to posit more than one person. Meaning the Zodiac is more than one person and the SRHMs is a split off from that original grouping. One stopped the other did not. That may be a way to bridge them if there is some evidence of a connection.

I sometimes speculate that Manalli being good at literature and English possibly spotted the Zodiac in a friend of his, like handwritings and thought patterns. An early linguistic hit on the Zodiac. Even how he looks compared to composites. Things lining up. A real case of the Don Cheneys. Maybe he confronted his friend over it. However, instead of killing Manalli for getting too close and things too hot, being a friend, the Zodiac instead got him into a spot of trouble. That being some of SRHM crimes. That way, they had Manalli’s silence. If Zodiac is involved in LE then it’s possible he had enough inside knowledge to make it look like an SRHM crime.

Your correct though. On the face of it, no connection. It’s all that other stuff though that never makes it fully dissuasive and hence why it persists even with the best of sleuths at this case.

By the way when it comes to strychnine and supernatural symbology one can’t help but notice that there are Christian sects which drink poison and handle dangerous snakes. That same year there was a case where Church goers had committed suicide by drinking strychnine. The judge said he couldn’t stop them drinking poison but he could stop them giving it to someone else and he could stop them handling snakes (I am guessing on some animal welfare grounds). Also in another case in Santa Rosa that same year a woman was on trial for sending sweets laced with strychnine to a lawyer’s secretary and found guilty the following year. They found her typewriter was used to type the label on the package. Also in San Francisco someone was going around leaving food laced with strychnine on the streets poisoning dogs there. It was isolated to two big streets on one block though. Reminds me of how dogs were targeted by EARONS. Kill off the animals so they don’t disturb nightly stalking efforts or wear dog repellent which he seems to have gone with. Then you have this stuff to kill off gofers like in Caddyshack. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9Nl39uWEYk

For the guy I am talking about a few pages page back with a Magnolia Ave. address. That was just one of their places I can place him.

Another place I should have mentioned is that if you go around the corner, you are standing in front of a school that some of those abducted victims attended.

There are tons of Magnolia streets throughout California. Even the Napa State Hospital borders Magnolia. It’s meaningless.

That is quite interesting BD.

A street he lived on once was called Capricorn. I found that interesting also.

So for people who may have been following things here. Basically if you went looking with that information you would have found yourself here…

Whoever has ears, let them hear.” 10 The disciples came to him and asked, “Why do you speak to the people in parables?” 11 He replied, “Because the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. 12 Whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them. 13 This is why I speak to them in parables: “Though seeing, they do not see; though hearing, they do not hear or understand. 14 In them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah: “ ‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding; you will be ever seeing but never perceiving. 15 For this people’s heart has become calloused; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts and turn, and I would heal them.’ 16 But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear.

Francine Trimble would spend time with her grandparents down in Greenbrae. They would travel from Forestville.

Greenbrae is an 8 min drive to Larkspur. It is across the Corte Madera Creek.

As a note Francine’s brother Andy attended El Molino High School in Forestville.

Forestville is 14 min drive from Sebastopol.

Is a possible serial killer William Richard Bradford victim in fact suspected SR Hitchhike Murder victim Jeanette Kamahele ?

Nr 49 in this link is a womans photo found at serial killer William Richard Bradford house.
IMO she could indeed be suspected Santa Rosa Hitchhike Murders victim 20 year old Jeanette Kamahele.
I actually do belive it is her.

Here are photos of Jeanette Kamahele to compare with woman nr 49 in the previous link :

Could be the same person, at least a very close match. Eyebrows are a bit stronger, so is the front of her upper mouth part but could be age related.

Anyone who would have showed me those photos side by side in any context, I would have said "this is the same person". You should definitely contact them, better than not. Interesting that this guy is known as "the death row poet".

This might not be what you were hoping for but look up "Babette Bombshell Jeannette Kamahele".

Has a date of Apr 25th 2016.

Dont understand what you mean?

It is obvious that @babettebombshell who posted that have added the photo of possible victim nr 49, who is a possible victim of serial killer William Richard Bradford.

If you read further down this instagram post another poster names buried_cold_cases has posted this reply to @babettebombshel :

@babettebombshell Where did you get this picture for Jeannette Kamahele? This picture is actually one of the pictures of unidentified women known to be in the possession of serial killer William Bradford (she’s #49). It certainly does look like Jeannette. Someone has contacted law enforcement a month back to alert them to this apparent connection, but the only picture stating that this is Jeannette that I could find online with a quick search was your post here and on Pinterest. Is there a chance that this picture could just be a mix up?

But at the end of the day it seems like, as I posted in my first post, that serial killer WRB’s possible victim photo nr 49 and suspected Santa Rosa Hichhike victim Jeannette Kamahele (who is still concidered missing) are the same person.

That’s what I am getting at. It seems someone made this connection 5 years ago and reported it.

So why isn’t it resolved if they are the same person? Why are they still looking for who this person is?

Number 40 on that list looks exactly like Eileen Francis hynson IMO, if I remember she went missing from Lake Tahoe area?

BTW, don’t let my finding mean you shouldn’t ask. You should certainly go find out.

Gray George in his 2016 book LOST COAST HIGHWAY doesn’t mention Bradford and that’s the most up-to-date book on the SRHMs I have read.
