I agree.

In 1998 I was told by the Napa County Undersheriff that Sullivan had been ruled out. I believe he said it was via fingerprints. Perhaps Toschi got them compared afterall. Maybe not.

I’m curious as to why so much emphasis is being placed on his handwriting? How many times so far has a document examiner found matches between Zodiac and assorted suspects? Five? Six? It’s been rendered meaningless.

Most recently it was the bizarre alleged match to the Albany letter.

Welcome Tom. Happy the hear your info on RS.

I agree, handwriting alone is not going to cut it for most suspects. As for Ross, we want to look at whatever we can. We have no information as to what he was up to during the 69-71ish Zodiac era. We didn’t up until the Ham year book findings, have much of any of his handwriting to look at. Many interesting similarities have been found from all sources. Printed writing can all look the same, but Ross has samples of stylized writing. For example, the "n" from the the Red Phantom letters matches Ross’s own signature.

There is great evidence that the Riverside writings were the work of Zodiac. So any suspect with a connection as close as Ross should get a good look. Good to know Napa looked at Riverside suspect, however they were probably unaware of both Ross’s connection to CJB and his connection (brother Tim and wife) to SF.

Yes, it would be nice to see what he has, but if it’s groundbreaking, it should go to law enforcement. Not the History Channel.

It would be a good idea to post it first, peer review is a good thing before getting LE involved. It might even be info that has been discussed before.

*BUT I AGREE with Tahoe, findings end up here to be discussed and should avoid "exclusive rights." Findings build upon past information, and information sharing only helps the case.

A bombshell find would be a piece of Stine’s shirt or his wallet and keys.

Bingo.
Or the key to the ciphers or dna match,

…a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma

I spoke to a good contact I had in Napa County about 4 years ago, and he could not even find Ross Sullivan in the Suspect reports, on the list of ruled out POI’s or ones that were still considered POI’s. Vallejo as well did not have him

They also had nothing on Rick Marshall, who was Narlow’s main guy. I went through all their boxes in 1998. All they had on Allen were photos of his palmprints.

I’m starting to doubt he’ll be sharing anything else.

They’ll be reasoning…The History Channel, a book, the cops. ;)


…they may be dealing with one or more ersatz Zodiacs–other psychotics eager to get into the act, or perhaps even other murderers eager to lay their crimes at the real Zodiac’s doorstep. L.A. Times, 1969

I believe tahoe is anticipating the possible excuses.
