“Part of the reason why the Zodiac case was not solved was due to a lead detective’s obsession,” Davidson said. “I can’t reveal too much more because, actually, there’s an element in the Zodiac case that’s really not been talked about before that we uncovered and got people to talk about how that explains why it wasn’t solved in the 1970s.”

Davidson went went on to say that there existed a “culture within the (San Francisco) police department that you don’t talk, you don’t rat out your fellow officers. I wouldn’t go as far to say that there was a cover up, per se, but there is certainly information that these former detectives were not talking about that I ultimately did get them to talk about.”

Filmmakers promise new info on Zodiac Killer case
Vallejo Times-Herald
Detectives in Northern California are trying to get a DNA profile on the Zodiac Killer to track him down using the same family-tree tracing technology …

To avoid spoilers, the filmmakers didn’t go into details. But they revealed that much of their new information is connected to how investigators handled — or mishandled — the case. “Part of the reason why the Zodiac case was not solved was due to a lead detective’s obsession,” Davidson said. I can’t reveal an extreme quantity of additional because of, actually, there’s a element throughout the Zodiac case that’s really not been talked about sooner than that we uncovered and obtained people to discuss how that explains why it wasn’t solved throughout the 1970s.”

After marketing gag ‘the book’ now the marketing gag ‘the movie’.

Hard to watch people trying to make money on the victims of Z.

Ironic that you would make such a statement while linking to Butterfield’s site, as he tried for years to get a Zodiac book deal, aka "make money."

They might compete to each other in doing so, who knows, there is a lot of books I wouldn’t read (we burnt them in Berlin, didn’t we ;)). So far none convinced me of their theory.

But for sure it is ok to have one’s poi or suspect, of course.

Geez when I started to read this thread, I thought we would be getting some new exciting news break soon! Then I read its about EVB, that was a huge disappointment for sure.
Most of us know about EVB and Gary Stewart, there is no real meat to his story. Not a one shred of tangible evidence. There are suspects who have so much more circumstantial evidence.

All Stewart had to do is get his DNA tested against what they have on the Zodiac ,to prove or disprove his claim. The handwriting that he said was a match to Zodiacs, was in fact the preachers writing who filled out the marriage certificate.

Hi,

Let’s see, the handwriting went down in flames. The "reversed bloody fingerprint" exploded like a cigar. What’s left? The name in the code and he knew Anton LaVey? Oh yeah, looked like the sketch and his name is in the code.

These people contacted me and talked about having me explain on camera how I threw cold water on the handwriting but when they realized they’d have to fly me to LA and pay to put me up in a hotel I never heard from them again. So I wonder who is refuting the writing and print evidence on screen, if anyone.

They didn’t fool you with the book, so they’ll try to fool you with the documentary.

BTW, if the "obsessed Inspector" was Toschi, I wonder if that makes him a better candidate for having written the forged letters. I also know that Bawart was very much into Allen, maybe obsessed, IDK. But my friend Jim knows how into Allen Bawart was. In fact, he was the one who showed Allen’s picture to Lindsey and Fouke in the 1980s

I was told the documentary will be very skeptical of Stewart’s claims that EVB Jr is Zodiac, which is repeated in this reporting:

The producers were also interested in my views of Stewart’s code claims.

Guess we’ll have to wait and see how much actual skepticism survives the four-episode run. Honestly, a series about how someone can get so wrapped up in a Zodiac delusion would be compelling, since it’s such an epidemic condition.

Hi David,

I am guessing the EVB documentary producers did not approach the foremost expert on the Zodiac Killer codes to appear in their documentary?…..that being you.

Tom said he was approached to play devil’s advocate (which sounds like the gist of the documentary) but refused to participate.

It will be interesting to see a psychological profile of someone (Gary Stewart in this case) who gets hooked on a suspect and connects dots because the more you know of a suspect, the more dots you can connect in favor of your suspect being the Zodiac. (like with any suspect).
At the same time ignoring or brushing over everything that eliminates the same suspect.

Shawn

I don’t know why the hell they even bothered with this. EVB is NOT the damn Zodiac.

They did. I gave them my analysis of why Stewart’s code claims are wrong, for whatever that’s worth.

Cool, I was going to watch anyways.

Having at least one rational voice in the crowd makes me want to watch more.

I have wonder if the producers are downplaying the documentary with (the cops were not doing their job properly) and
(analysis of Gary Stewart’s obsession of his father as Zodiac). While holding ground breaking ace cards close to their vests until the
show airs.
