I don’t know how much $$ he is making, but he is getting some major face & air time, he’s all over the place, and so is the story. The publicity machine is running on all cylinders for sure. Hey, if he gets a dollar a book, and sells a million,or $2 a book and selling 500k copies, that’s not too shabby-of course, his reputation is shot, but at that point, he may not care.

His reputation will be shot because of the people who actually know about the case seeing he is a fraud. I’m sure he does not care about that. The people close to him most likely know nothing about the case and I’m sure they believe him. It’s a win-win for this guy. He’s not going to get rich, but I’m sure he will make some decent money from the whole thing. Morf, I have noticed you are on top of this whole thing and calling BS on pretty much everything going on with the story. Good! Someone needs to.

A few minutes ago on a toilet not very far, far away….

Here’s the link on the Book written by the handwriting expert, who examined this POI’s handwriting. Interesting timing as both books are released the same time. Never heard of this handwriting expert, has anyone else?

http://zodiacsolved.com/ . < If you click on more, you can read about the author or even contact him.

I’m not sure how this guy (handwriting expert) wrote a whole book based on those few handwriting graphics, as it appears on his site. And it looks like they used the same designer for the cover art on both books — are they a matched set?

It’s odd that Harper Collins publishing shows no mention of this book on their web site
( that is the publisher right ? As stated on the web . ) This book has 100 times the attention of their other top sellers . I cannot get the new releases page to come up , but their main page has up to today news and new releases too.

Probably some editorial team is getting a epic ass chewing. :lol:

Hmm, according to this ‘evidence’ section on the book’s website – http://themostdangerousanimalofall.com/the-evidence/

And this image – http://themostdangerousanimalofall.com/ … lved-2.jpg

They aren’t even attempting to claim it as an actual solution, or show a method, or a key, or anything. Just saying "LOOK! EARLVANBESTJR is 13 characters and so is the cipher!"

That’s pretty ridiculous. If you could solve a cipher by just taking it and writing whatever the hell you want underneath, we would have HUNDREDS of "solutions."

Oh, wait…

the books web site has a comments section ,with all but one are glowingly positive.
maybe a moderator here or two could change that and save people the cost of the book and time spent reading it.

Here’s a link to the writing samples of his suspect:
http://themostdangerousanimalofall.com/ … riel-2.gif

Some of the writing is similar, but some differences too. One major flaw, he has provided writing from the "1990 card", which I assume is the Eureka card. That is meaningless, and not sure why he included it as his suspect died in 1984.

Yup…. This is what did me in, as far as believing any credibility to the handwriting analysis. You can’t get a more blatant "grabbing at straws" attempt than that right there. :roll:

My first, middle and last name adds up to 13 characters… That must mean I am the Zodiac! Doh! :o

Any body game to help write a book.

I am sure we can find a subject. Got to be millions of high school photos that can pass the wanted poster test.

I want a new 2015 Z06 Corvette.

Don’t get myself wrong this Stewart guy might really believe his research and this story might have something in his story that will break the case. I love see the case solved for families sake if anything. It had to been very hard on victims families, You put yourself in there shoes as we call it in WV.

But some I swear I think its more "Money" than trying to find the honest truth with some of these people. Not naming any names on here, But I am still after way over 5 years still waiting on a book in mail that I paid in full for. Learn valuable lesson on that one.

Us old timers I know 1 name that all of you thinking of right now. But I feel this not proper place to attack other people if you agree with them or not.
