the first kill
This is a true story
The San Francisco Zodiac killer in the late 1960′s early 1970′s was never caught. There was a suspect named Arthur Lee Allen but he was never charged because there was no evidence. Over the years, other suspects have been put forward but none have been linked to the crime by actual evidence….
The Zodiac Killer is the pseudonym of an unidentified serial killer, who operated in Northern California in the late 1960s. The case has been described as the most famous unsolved murder case in American history. It became a fixture of popular culture and has inspired numerous amateur detectives to attempt to solve it…
Hi, I'm Detective Caleb Romans. I am here to tell the story about the Zodiac Killer… P.S'm not a real detective OK im a kid writing a story about these killers and trying to solve it i give full credit to the guy who wrote these blogs... https://zodiackiller.com/zodiac-killer-victims-david-faraday-and-lou-jensen/
On December 20th the Zodiac Killer killed 2 people male and female their names were David Faraday and Betty Lou Jensen…
David Faraday, age 17, was shot once in the head at point-blank range and died within minutes. Betty Lou Jensen, age 16, was shot five times in the back and killed instantly. The weapon was a .22 caliber semi-automatic pistol. The ammunition was a Winchester Western Super X copper-coated long rifle. There was no indication of robbery or sexual molestation. While there were no witnesses, several vehicles were seen in the area just prior to local resident Stella Borges discovering the crime scene. The place where they were attacked was a gravel parking area along remote Lake Herman Road on the eastern outskirts of Vallejo, Calif.
Details: According to the police report, the victims were apparently approached while occupying Faraday’s station wagon. Shots were fired into the vehicle in an apparent effort to force them out. Jensen exited the front passenger door first, followed by Faraday. Faraday was shot as he emerged from the car, Jensen was then shot as she fled on foot. It was the first date Jensen had ever been allowed on and the crime shocked the community. The shooting could not be explained by Faraday’s family. Jensen’s family was equally dumbfounded. Conclusion: While Faraday and Jensen are traditionally considered definite Zodiac victims, there have been many other suspects in this case. In the early 1990s, former Vallejo Police Department detective John Lynch said the couple was killed because Faraday had learned of a major drug deal and had been talking openly about who was involved. Other sources have speculated that Zodiac wasn’t responsible because no taunting letters or phone calls were received until months after the murders. However, when Zodiac finally took credit for this attack, he provided many details that were not known to the general public. Perhaps Zodiac’s sense of fulfillment following the Faraday-Jensen murders was so strong that he didn’t feel the need to immediately brag to the news media. More than 30 years later, local residents still haven’t forgotten this crime. And the secluded area of the murders hasn’t changed very much at all.
There were thousands of suspects since 1968 but so far none of them were the killer this was the first time he had killed them if it was him…
The zodiac killer wrote most of his letters in cryptograms down showing you what cryptogram…
After killing The Zodiac would often send letters to the local press, demanding they be published or there would be more killings. He sometimes included evidence from a crime scene or a cryptogram. Only two of the four cryptograms sent were ever decoded. The contents were disturbing but unfortunately did not reveal the killer’s identity. Below is what experts believe one of the decoded messages to say;
“I LIKE KILLING PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS SO MUCH FUN IT IS MORE
FUN THAN KILLING WILD GAME IN THE FORREST BECAUSE MAN IS
THE MOST DANGEROUS ANIMAL OF ALL TO KILL SOMETHING
GIVES ME THE MOST THRILLING EXPERIENCE IT IS EVEN BETTER
THAN GETTING YOUR ROCKS OFF WITH A GIRL THE BEST PART OF
IT IS THAT WHEN I DIE I WILL BE REBORN IN PARADICE AND THEI
HAVE KILLED WILL BECOME MY SLAVES I WILL NOT GIVE YOU MY
NAME BECAUSE YOU WILL TRY TO SLOW DOWN OR TOP MY
COLLECTION OF SLAVES FOR MY AFTERLIFE
EBEORIETEMETHHPITI”
