Out of all the cases I somehow feel that LB is the one where there is still the most to learn.

Tom Voigt’s being, shall we say, coy about the whole thing… :D

Seems like something is up, but those that know have been told to keep a lid on it.

Where there’s smoke, there’s fire…

I think it’s safe to assume that this isn’t about the identification of a suspect. If it were, the DOJ would be involved. My guess is the discovery of new evidence or the release of information about LB that Napa has previously held under wraps.

well just how long must we wait? Please go to your "sources" and ask them ….otherwise, imo this is just another ruse to keep activity up on these websites. Keep dangling those carrots.

I don’t have a “source”.

This rumor began by a post on the Zodiac Killer Facebook page by a gentleman named Phillip Powers. He is known for his theory that his grandfather Kenneth German was the Zodiac. Normally I would dismiss this out of hand.

But then Eddie Barsh posted that he had heard the same thing. Then Sandy said she had too.

Combine that with Morf’s tweet from two weeks ago and Tom V’s winking response today and I think there’s some smoke here.

Still, you could be right and it could all be crap.

My contact from the Napa PD just said "stay tuned" – I really think something is coming now.

IF an announcement is in the works, my guess is they re-tested the clothesline with modern forensic techniques and may have pulled some genetic material from it.

FINALLY SOMEONE LET HIM OUT OF HIS CAGE….

Don’t live in Dixon but guess there are not too many Phillip Powers living there:

So this ‘credible’ guy is claiming his granddad was the Zodiac? Because he matched his appearance?

LOL.

Thought that they had a blanket taken by Dennis or Ray Land? Why would they take it?

Morf recently posted on the same Zodiac FB page that his sources are calling rumors of an announcement "hogwash", but that he is confident that "progress is being made in the case".

So, it’s possible to speculate that Napa is working on something big, but aren’t prepared to make it public just yet.

Hi,

Well, like I’ve said before there is a photo of Narlow and Lonergan handling the clothesline without gloves a few days after the attack. I wonder how many other people touched that clothesline over the years. Plus blood from two vics is on it. Didn’t Hartnell say that the knots were somewhat easier to undo because the clothesline was slippery with blood?

Touch DNA? Count me skeptical.

If there were a match with someone to DNA from the letters that VPD is analyzing, I assume they’d be involved in the announcement, too.

Let’s wait for the announcement :)

My contact is a lieutenant

Today, Vallejo, Napa, Riverside and SF PD announced a major breakthrough in the criminal case known as "The Zodiac killer":

Although not yet an arrest has been made, Kenneth German has been ruled out as being ‘the Zodiac’. "He just didn’t do it", said Seargant A. J. Fake of the local Dixon authority. "Just an innocent guy, like all of us. Even more innocent than my own wife". The press conference even caught international attention: In Wuhan, Democratic Republic of China, the Major of the city, Mr. In-Flu-Enz said that "there is no SARS around anymore since the Zodiac was caught". Philipp P., a nearby bystander, while grabbing his brown bag commented on it as well, reaching for the microphone: "I always knew it was him: He owned a knife, thread, needle and shoe polish – this could not have been accidential anymore. He even owned clothesline. I have seen it in his garden!". On request, former victim Brian C. H. indicated that he had always known that Kenneth German was not the right guy but had actually feared to talk about it. Authorities continue with the investigation. QT-News, follow us on QTTV.com

If they got DNA from the clothesline and it matched with the DNA from the back of the stamps, it would represent a huge break in the case and a good omen for the viability of genetic genealogy investigations.

It would also put to rest ridiculous theories about the Lake Berryessa attacker being an impostor instead of the same killer.
