San Francisco Police sketch of the Zodiac Killer.
Jack the Ripper and the Dusseldorf vampire are continuing in the grand tradition of Peter Kurten - and to remove BTK - Zodiac has sent the press and police a fun and funny letter promoting their murders. "This has become Zodiac speaker" and it has become a crossfire and a cross has divided into four quarters of a circle which has become the symbol associated with them till this day.
Due to its high profile in the media, Zodiac has given rise to at least two copycat killers: Herbereto Ceda in New York and 14-year-old Japanese Butcher, who was given the fake name of "Sito Sakakibara" because he was too young to be formal in the press Can be identified by the form. The zodiac, which has remained unknown and untrained till this day, terrorized San Francisco Bay Area in the late 1960s. The number of responsible victims is different from this murderer and anything can be done from 5 to 37 (if the investigators confirm the murderers being asked in the case, then the claim about zodiac sign is claimed).
On December 20, 1968, the reign of terror began with the assassinations of Betty Low Jansen and David Faraday. The young couple was attacked by a single gunman while they were sitting in a parked car on the Harman Road lake inside Benikiya city limits and both of them were killed. There was no witness, and there was not much evidence for the police on the basis of the investigation. All were quiet until the beginning of July 1969, who brought the assassin attack on Darlingen Ferrin and Michael Callowo in Vallejo. Ferrin died after receiving several gun wounds but Magee survived. The next assault took place on September 27, 1969, on the banks of Lake Berichea and he severely injured Cecilia Shepard and his boyfriend Brian Hartnell. Paul Lee was the next after the death of Stan; Shot in his cab in San Francisco on October 11, 1969. He is probably the last victim of the zodiac and since then this killer has not been credited for more death.

letter written by the Zodiac Killer
The first three zodiac signs were received on August 1, 1969, in three major newspapers in San Francisco. There was a cryptogram in these letters, which Zodiac said, if it is resolved then its identity will be manifested (it was resolved and beyond that nothing of significance was revealed, the frame of the brain's turning point). It was in the fourth letter received by the paper on August 7, 1969, that the killer nominated himself by producing his notorious "This Zodiac Speaking" phrase. Correspondence continued in October 1969 and this time, for the Jolly only, the killer sent a piece of the shirt of Paul Steein in the newspapers with his letter. On November 9, 1969, on November 8, 1969, another cryptogram was included in the growing file (7 December 1969, 20 December 1969, 20 December In 1969 another letter, another letter in which another piece of Stan was included, the shirt
During the 1970s, at least six letters and greeting cards were sent to the press by The Zodiac. Each had signs indicating the killer's previous achievements and future plans, but the police did not have enough information with firm lead or even a potentially suspicious person. Zodiac continued to write until 1978 and investigators also found evidence that put forward for consideration he could be responsible for unconfirmed killings in Riverside, Lake Tahoe and Santa Barbara.
Since receiving the last letter from Zodiac Killer, it is now more than thirty years and the police is finally close to identifying the killer. Recent developments in technology have enabled them to send salts and other samples taken from letters for DNA testing. But the killer has not been identified yet and the legend of Zodiac will continue so and to grow ... at least yet.
