Episode Notes We return from a LONG break to finish up our look at the murder of Cheri Jo Bates, about whether or not it was related, and what it meant. Find out more at https://zodiac-speaking.pinecast.co
Was this murder in Riverside related? Is Bates the model for so many murder victims in popular culture? Did Zodiac do it? The first part of three.
A review of the four attacks in Benicia, Vallejo, Lake Berryessa, and San Francisco, and what they as a whole might tell us.
We look at the letters following the murder of Paul Stine, the reasons these feel like Zodiac knew that he wasn't going to do it again, how Melvin Belli fit in, and why would he be so poor at spelling.
A look at the Stine murder theory as to why the car went an extra block, about what might have happened, and a lot of talk about whether or not Zodiac simply stopped.
A look at the murder of Paul Stine, and the beginning of a discussion of why Zodiac stopped here. We're looking to interview anyone who knew Paul and could give us some more insight on him.
The path I'll be taking towards the discussion of the murder of Paul Stine is laid out.
A final wrap-up of the Lake Berryessa attack, as well as a look at the rest of the path of the podcast
A look at the clues from the Lake Berryessa attack, and if Zodiac left some behind on purpose.
Today, we look at the words of Bryan Hartnell, what they meant to the idea of Zodiac and how they have moved the case along. we also touch on details defining how a timeline is build, how unreliable details can often be as important as verifiable, and we give a shout-out to the amazing Ashley and Bay Area Mystery Club!
We start our look into the attack at Lake Berryessa with a few snippets from the police reports.
A first look at the first attack following the Zodiac giving himself a name. Here, I lay out what I'll be talking about for the rest of the set of episodes, and exactly what it might all mean. You can read my issue of Claims Department on Zodiac at http://efanzines.com/DrinkTank/ClaimsDepartment22.pdf You can read my issue of Exhibition Hall on Jack the Ripper at http://efanzines.com/ExhibHall/ExhibHall-21.pdf
We look at the first two letters written to newspapers, the strange spelling, and why they may, or may not, be authentic.
Through the police report and my random thoughts, I look at Michael Mageau, how it fits into the case at large, how his survival may have changed the path of the murders, and more.
A look at Darlene Ferrin and the stories that have grown around her. Was she the key to everything? Was Zodiac after her and her alone? Was she stalked? What were the calls to her family about?
You can say that the attack on Michael Mageau and Darlene Ferrin on 4th of July, 1969 is what took a pair of murders and turned them into one of the most famous set of killings ever. We look at the two victims, and what we'll be looking at in the coming episodes, starting in late May
A look at encountering Michael Mageau, and an introduction to why this might be the most significant attack of all.
We take a last look at Faraday and Jensen with a consideration of a further-out theory, a look at what happened after in the community, and more.
A look at two of the major pieces of coverage of the Faraday-Jensen murders and what the pieces were saying about the murdered, as well as about the reason for the tone of the coverage.
We look at Betty Lou Jensen and David Faraday, the first two victims of Zodiac, that last night, and what may have happened on December 20th, 1968.
What we are going to do. How we are going to do it. why it matters.
