Il Primo Omicidio del Zodiac Killer – Lake Herman Road, 1968 | Il Mistero Inizia Il 20 dicembre 1968, sulle tranquille strade di Lake Herman Road in California, si consuma un delitto che darà inizio a uno dei misteri criminali più inquietanti della storia americana: il primo omicidio attribuito al famigerato Zodiac Killer. In questo video ripercorriamo i fatti di quella notte: l'assassinio di David Faraday e Betty Lou Jensen, due giovani studenti in cerca di un momento di intimità, brutalmente uccisi a colpi di pistola da un killer senza volto. Analizziamo i dettagli della scena del crimine, le prime indagini, le contraddizioni, e le piste seguite dalla polizia. Inizia la nostra serie dedicata al famigerato Zodiac Killer, uno dei più misteriosi e spietati assassini seriali della storia americana. In questo primo episodio, ricostruiamo il primo omicidio a Benicia, avvenuto nel dicembre del 1968, quando David Faraday e Betty Lou Jensen furono brutalmente uccisi in una tranquilla strada di campagna. Attraverso testimonianze, documenti originali, audio narrativi e ricostruzioni approfondite, ripercorriamo ogni dettaglio dell'attacco e delle indagini iniziali, che segnarono l'inizio di una scia di sangue e paura in tutta la California. Chi era davvero lo Zodiac? Perché ha scelto le sue vittime? E cosa possiamo capire oggi, decenni dopo, su uno dei casi irrisolti più famosi al mondo?
Who was The Zodiac? Did he kill Cheri Jo Bates? And how did three hobbyist cryptographers crack his ‘impossible' code 50 years after it was written? These are just a few of the questions we answer in our final episode on The Zodiac Killer. Join us as we try to conclude the inconcludable, cold case that has haunted California for half a century.Exclusive bonus content:Wondery - Ad-free & ShortHandPatreon - Ad-free & Bonus EpisodesFollow us on social media:YouTubeTikTokInstagramVisit our website:WebsiteSources available on redhandedpodcast.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
By now, all the good "criminal nicknames" have been taken: Scarface, Jack the Ripper, the Zodiac Killer, Bonnie & Clyde, the Wet Bandits. But the "Bathroom Vanity Villains" is still available.

Der Zodiac Killer ist einer der mysteriösesten Serienmörder der US-Geschichte. In den späten 1960er Jahren versetzte er Nordkalifornien in Angst und Schrecken – mit einer Reihe brutaler Morde und verstörender Briefe an Medien und Polizei. Bis heute ist seine Identität ungeklärt. Seine verschlüsselten Botschaften, das Spiel mit der Öffentlichkeit und die ausbleibende Festnahme machen den Fall zu einem der faszinierendsten Kriminalrätsel der modernen Zeit.In dieser Folge beleuchten wir die grausamen Taten des Zodiac Killers, seine kryptischen Botschaften – und die fieberhafte Jagd nach seiner Identität.In dieser Folge erfährst du:
Here's a movie based, on a book written about a true wave of crime. Here is a 2.5 hour movie that doesn't feel like it 2.5 hours long. David Fincher takes this Crime wave and makes even more interesting then the real life mystery. We go back to the 1960-1970s to look at what went on when the Zodiac Killer was hunting people in California. Come hear how this 2007 film holds up in 2025. Come hear what we have to say.

Last week we left you with the absolutely massive cliffhanger of a 408-character cipher, which in theory contained valuable information on the Bay Area's most infamous killer “The Zodiac”. But first it needed to be solved. And amazingly it wasn't cracked by the police, or the FBI: it was solved by a 41-year-old history teacher and his wife, and we're going to tell you exactly how they did it. In this week's episode, the Zodiac's killing spree continues – claiming the lives of young lovers Bryan Hartnell & Cecelia Sheppard, along with San Francisco Taxi driver Paul Stine – while the police work furiously to beat the cyphers, and uncover his identity once and for all.Exclusive bonus content:Wondery - Ad-free & ShortHandPatreon - Ad-free & Bonus EpisodesFollow us on social media:YouTubeTikTokInstagramVisit our website:WebsiteSources available on redhandedpodcast.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Violent attacks, sadistic taunting, and uncrackable puzzles; in some ways “The Zodiac” laid the foundations for every murderous TV psychopath and movie villain of the next half-century. For our 400th episode we decided to dedicate three whole episodes to the potentially the most famous serial killer in history: how he operated, how his puzzles were solved, and who he might have been.In part one we're going to tell you everything you need to know about the Zodiac's first four victims: David Farady, Betty Lou Jensen, Darlene Ferrin, and Michael Mageau.

More than 50 years after the Zodiac Killer mysteriously vanished, his crimes and letters still haunt the world.The Zodiac Killer conducted a campaign of terror in the late 1960s, killing seven victims before taunting investigators through a series of cryptic letters, clues and coded messages sent to local newspapers.For more than five decades, investigators have searched for the identity of the Zodiac Killer. Hoaxes and forged letters fueled an ongoing media circus while the mystery inspired TV documentaries, feature films, books, websites, podcasts, and even copycat killers.This compelling biography is written by Michael Butterfield, a writer and researcher who has been investigating the Zodiac case for more than 30 years. He separates fact from fiction and lays out what we know about the crimes, the mysteries and the theories surrounding the case, its legacy in popular culture, and where the investigation stands today.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio.

We have guest on today's episode is hoping to bring attention and light to a very cold case. A few weeks ago, I had the honor and pleasure of speaking to 11 time Emmy award-winning (to name a few) creative composer, producer, multi-instrumentalist and NOW filmmaker, Dan Brown Junior. Because you listen to this podcast and many other podcasts across the true crime landscape, I can say with a reasonable degree of certainty that you have most likely heard Dan's work…somewhere…on networks such as ABC,CBS, NBC, Disney, A & E, Investigation Discovery, Hulu, Netflix, YouTube, History Channel, Hallmark, NFL, HBO, TLC, HLN, Oxygen,, BET, AMC, Apple, Crime & Investigation… on shows such as Dateline, Snapped, Unspeakable Crimes, The Hunt for the Zodiac Killer, Pitbulls & Parolees, Killer Beside Me, Catfish, The Hunt with John Walks, Deadline Crime with Tamron Hall, Wives with Knives, American Greed, The Disappearance of Maura Murray, Very Scary People, Forensic Files II, The Disappearance of Crystal Roberts, A Current Affair…to name a few…there are literally thousands of places where you've heard his work and today, we will put…at least a voice to the musician who woke up one day and decided he wanted to “write the music you hear on the crime shows”. With that, Dan created Crimesonics in 2018 with a singular goal in mind…to take over the sound of crime television, films and games worldwide by supplying the globe with exquisitely criminal production music. Since then, Crimesonics, under Dan's creative vision and leadership, has amassed an eclectic repository of criminal and investigative music and sound effects, redefining what Crime TV could sound like. Dan has since crossed over into filmmaking with a project that is also a passion, with his documentary Girl Forgotten: What Happened To Brianna Wells. You heard the trailer of Dan's film at the opening, a link to which is in the show notes where you can watch and subscribe to Crimesonics on YouTube…which you're going to want to once you learn who Brianna was and is…and the ongoing efforts to solve her murder. With his documentary, Dan hopes to bring light to a case that has been languishing in darkness for more than a decade.

Having never been caught or identified the myths and conspiracies surrounding the Zodiac Killer are plenty.Today we look at the credible and not so credible conspiracies and theories that surround the infamous Zodiac Killer.Was it one person?

Throughout the 1960s and 70s, from Los Angeles to San Francisco, Californians were terrorized by multiple killers including notorious serial killers like the Zodiac Killer, the Hillside Stranglers, Herbert Mullin, and Ed Kemper. While the decade may have ended with these killers disappearing or apprehended, the threat of violence and murder simply moved north.Though less known than his contemporaries, David Carpenter was no less prolific and frightening a killer than those men mentioned above. Nicknamed “The Trailside Killer” by the press, Carpenter terrorized Point Reyes and Santa Cruz County for a decade, assaulting, kidnapping, and killing at least eight people, but he was suspected of more. Like those other killers, Carpenter had a long history of violent and antisocial behavior going back to his childhood, including multiple arrests and incarcerations. How was it that a man with such an alarming history of violence could go uncaught for a decade?Thank you to the Incredible Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research and Writing support!ReferencesAssociated Press. 1980.

Throughout the early 1970s, California's Bay Area was in the grip of terror as multiple serial killers operated at the time same time and in more or less the same space. In time, some of these killers, like Ed Kemper, would be caught, while others, like the Zodiac Killer, would remain unidentified. Yet it was the ones who appeared to kill at random, without any preferred victim, that would prove the most terrifying and most difficult to catch. Herbert Mullin was one such killer, and while he may have been active for a very short period, he managed to do a tremendous amount of damage in such a little amount of time.Over a five-month period in late 1972 and early 1973, Herbert Mullin killed thirteen people, including a college girl, a Catholic priest, and a former high school friend and that friend's neighbors. To investigators, Mullin's victims appeared to be—and indeed largely were—chosen at random and the weapons used were chosen more out of convenience than pathology. Had Mullin's final murder not been committed in full view of witnesses, there's a very good chance he would have gone on to kill many more people before being caught, if he ever was.Thank you to the Incredible Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research and Writing support!ReferencesAssociated Press. 1972.

The Zodiac Killer's reign of terror might be one of America's greatest mysteries, but beneath the chilling letters and unsolved murders lies a web of speculation, contradictions, and the haunting possibility that the truth is far more elusive than we imagine.Darkness Syndicate members get the ad-free version. https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateInfo on the next LIVE SCREAM event. https://weirddarkness.com/LiveScreamInfo on the next WEIRDO WATCH PARTY event. https://weirddarkness.com/TVIN THIS EPISODE: A man starts to dig a swimming pool in his backyard – and unearths numerous human corpses. The resulting story is so incredible that it inspired the film, “Grave Secrets”. The true story behind the “Black Hope Horror”. (Black Hope Horror) *** America… the home of baseball, apple pie, jazz, and… the birth of spiritualism. (Spiritualism) *** From the spirits of famous female historical figures, to the girlish ghouls of urban legend, female ghosts are some of the scariest spirits out there. (Ghoulish Ghost Girls) *** Was the legendary serial killer the Zodiac a hoax? (Zodiac: The Phantom Killer) *** A hundred years ago, the Spanish Influenza epidemic ripped through the United States, with fatalities reaching as high as 1,000 per week. We'll look at what happened.

(The Claims of Christina Crawford) *** Along with sightings of Bigfoot, extraterrestrials, ghosts, and shadow people, there is a growing number of reports of entities which appear to be wearing futuristic armor, or high-tech suits.

In the 1970s, shortly after the horrific reign of the Zodiac Killer, another serial killer wreaked havoc on San Francisco, killing as many as seventeen men he'd met at bars and nightclubs across the city. Intriguingly, the killer reportedly sketched his victims before stabbing them and leaving their bodies to be discovered in public places - most commonly on a beautiful beach along the city's edge. This is the story of The San Francisco Doodler.
We all know the story of the Zodiac Killer, the mysterious psychopath who terrorized Northern California in the late 1960s. But what many don't know is just how many legitimate suspects there are in America's most baffling serial killer case.
In 1969, the Zodiac Killer sent the San Francisco Bay Area into terror. In this second part of my 2-part series, I tell you what happened next. I also tell you who I think is the most likely suspect.
