Talon, I think you’re on your own with that theory. While there is evidence to support more than one person being involved, the rest of what you say is just wild speculation. Maybe your homophobia is clouding your judgement. Moreover, when it comes to serial killers, they usually kill their own kind.

Joedetective, I’m not convinced your "homophobic" accusation is warranted, here. I don’t know what would make a gay couple any less likely than a straight one (or platonic friends, for that matter) to murder in collusion — unlikely under any circumstance, of course.

I wonder if Talon is referring loosely to a certain couple of SF characters who were the subject of some taping that was done..

Yes, murray, you’re right about the accusation, and I apologize for that. I was going to edit that part out but now I’ve been quoted. I still think it’s a farfetched theory and he doesn’t back it up with anything. It’s entirely possible I guess but the letters and MO, as well as the victims he chooses all point to a straight guy. Think of the Monster of Florence, and how he wouldn’t even finish the job when he realized the woman in the car was actually actually a man with long hair. Also, if Z used any kind of overkill, it was on the females, which tells me that is where his passion was aimed. Gay guys are indifferent to women. Again, not saying it’s impossible, just wish he could have given some insights into why he felt that way. Everyone’s entitled to their opinions and I hope Talon has no hard feelings.

Thank for the insight’s guys.

Some very interesting analysis.
