Trudy Ann Hiler killed in Tahoe, compared to Donna Lass case. I don’t think she’s been mentioned on the forums.

Trudy’s killer has just been paroled, and will be back on the streets in about 30 months, after serving part of a sentence for attempted escape. Michael Anselmo was the 19 y.o. hotel bus boy who originally reported seeing her being bundled into a car. He had only been in the area a couple of days before killing Trudy. His lame excuse was that he was high on LSD.

Sure – looks like there were two (one was in "Datebook").

How the hell can they let someone back into the public who has committed such a horrid act?

This one turned out to be interesting. The number in the ad, "130-07-1079", happens to match the social security number for a deceased man named Thomas Dougherty, born 13 February 1915 and died July 1979. He lived in San Francisco at the time of his death.
A man named Thomas Dougherty, perhaps the same man, had a Zodiac code theory that he pestered a federal judge with. I wrote an article about him a while ago:

The code work in his letters mentions Donna Lass at several points. It also mentions "Coda" which is mentioned in the ad.
Interesting find!

If Zodiac ever joined a Z forum, I’m sure he would have been banned for not following forum rules. Zam’s/Quote

The number in the ad, "130-07-1079"
It reads as though it would be a phone number, but that’s not a phone number. Is it supposed to be an address?

Yes, I believe he is using it instead of his name for the first line of the address. Strange that he would give up his SSN so easily. But he was a strange guy.

I’m assuming his address, the Warfield Hotel, was a flophouse?
From the stuff at Dave’s site, it sure seems this guy has mental health/drinking problems, what with his delusional tale linking Zodiac and Donna Lass to Howard Hughes Jr., Louis Gottlieb (limelighters/digger farm) and bringing the killers, Juan Corona, Willie The Woodcutter etc. into the tale.
Sounds like the overactive imagination of a guy no doubt considered at the time a "crazy bum"; concocting a conspiracy using (in)famous characters in the papers.
At least the 340 helped the guy pass the time, I suppose.
Hi Dave, was the December 16th Fairfield letter ever released in the newspapers in 1969 or 1970.

So far, I have had no luck finding any mention of it in the papers.
