Hello all, it’s been a while. My question is… Can anybody confirm or has seen a letter supposedly mailed by z on June 30, 1972 to the sports editor at the Marin IJ? If yes can you point me in the direction.
The article from the link above me:
Interesting topic..haven’t seen it, yet, guess it’d be necessary to request it from the FBI. It even contains a – presumably short – cipher.
The time given in the letter is odd, anybody an idea why the time is given so precisely?

There are some people that suspect that Salmina could be a z suspect. There are pics of him floating around.

Here is his pic, from 1964 when he was 19 years old. Not a good full face photo but he is wearing those glasses.
So let me get this straight…
In order to be killed, he had to leave his house at 3:13:47 for 10 Saturdays in a row? Did this so-called Zodiac do any proofreading before he wrote that?

A date maybe. 3/13/47.
Salmina was a Vietnam War veteran. Died young in 1995. A big baseball fan (possibly like Zodiac who allegedly included Oakland As tickets with a death threat). https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/995 … rd-salmina

If it’s a date (american style), it’s unclear why that date – Salmina was born in 1945,
so that date doesn’t seem to have any applicability to him.
The use of the word "past" before the "3:13:47" numbers could be taken as an
indication of some thing in the past that could have struck a chord with Salmina
– is it possible it’s a reference to some past baseball game ‘statistic’, home runs
hit, team runs made, that sort of thing – unfortunately I don’t know enough about
baseball to recognize what specific type of game statistics it could be referring to.
The suggestion is that that set of numbers could act as a possible identifying
statistic (of which there may be a number of possible matching statistics from
a number of past games) whilst at the same the number does double duty as a
time on Saturday (but as a time, it has no particular relevance except as some
time on a Saturday when Salmina could be expected to be coaching/managing
a baseball team in a game).
My guess is that if from the Zodiac, the intention was to hopefully scare Salmina a
bit so that he might not effectively coach or manage the next 10 games of a baseball
team (Salmina was involved with several Marin County baseball teams) that in only one
of those games, was due to play against an opposing team that the Zodiac supported
– so Zodiac was doing a bit of supporting of his preferred team, in a way that he could,
in a what-the-hey whimsical threatening effort, by sending that letter.
The "next ten Saturdays" wording ensures that no specific opposing team is identified,
as if one specific Saturday/game had been identified, that could act to indicate what
area Zodiac resided in – (a reasonable assumption being that Zodiac would have a
preference for whatever team that was local to the Zodiac’s area of residence).
