Miscellaneous case updates and details
2021-12-22: Tom Voigt implies there is additional undisclosed (to the public) evidence included with Zodiac mailings 2021-12-20: Tom Voigt discloses DNA-related information from unnamed sources.
- The testing of Zodiac evidence produced a DNA profile. That's the good news. The bad news? The profile belonged to an individual who could not have been the Zodiac killer. That's as specific as I can be. One possibility is the profile belongs to an accomplice. Or an unknowing contributor not involved in the crimes. A major complication is during the Zodiac era, a popular form of civil disobedience was to reuse stamps. All of that is under consideration and the process is continuing.
- The original sample (2002) was of a male and still could belong to the actual Zodiac although it was not located where one would have preferred. (Link)
2021-12-01: Mike Morford received details from a Lake Berryessa witness. (link 1) (link 2)
- Hi Mike, Yes I am THAT ******* a possible witness to the Lake Berryessa killer. I guess maybe some statute of limitations has expired because I've had a few people contact me. My identity and testimony at the time was under the agreement of secrecy as for years I was in fear of being identified and at risk. Obviously that criminal must be long dead by now. You didn't name the photo of the man you sent. And of course, 50 years on, I don't know. There are several photos I have been sent that look like the man I saw. Yes the photo you included very much looks like the man I saw, but your photo shows him quite heavy, and the man I saw was thin. A Frenchman has 'identified' the killer as Lawrence Kane, and the photo is similar to my identikit but I don't feel it's him. There is a 1950s photo of Arthur Leigh Allen, and that 50s photo is very strongly similar to who I saw. Photos of Gary Francis Poste show no resemblance. So there's no real answer I can provide. The man I saw stalked 3 of us girls and followed us to the lake. We sunbathed on the cove right next to where the killings took place, and left an hour or so before the attacks began. The man followed us to the shoreline and observed us from the trees. That's about all I can offer. Good luck with your research!
