This thread is for the most important evidence regarding Ted K and Zodiac. And questions or comments. Dan G your posts had nothing to do with Ted K so please don't post off topic here.
Some different facts, evidence and ideas...
I think it was TRAV who did a screen capture of this image from the German documentary on the net, computers, lsd and Ted.
This shows that Ted was burying ammo as early as 1973. Which fits with his writings that he was expecting shootout with the police this early, which is odd, because the first unabomber crime was in 1978.
So in 1971 when Ted says he has "violently rebeled" against society, what is he talking about?
---------------------------
The Zodiac = This is the murderer of the 2 teenagers last Christmass at Lake Herman & the girl on the 4th of July near the golf course in Vallejo.
To prove I killed them I shall state some facts which only I & the police know. Three-Part Cipher, 1969.
FC aka Unabomber =
To prove that we are the ones who planted the bomb at U. Of Cal. last May
we will mention a few details that could be known only to us and the FBI who investigated the incident. S.F. Examiner Letter, 1985.
The Lords Avenger = "
I built with these hands the bomb I placed in the car of Judi Bari. Doubt me not for I
will tell you the design and materials such as only I would know."------------------------------
Did Zodiac have an unusual or distinctive walk?
If he did that may be an interesting factor to consider when looking at potential suspects.
In the first report of Officer Fouke, he wrote that the man he saw walking away from the Stine crime scene - who was probably the Zodiac - had a "shuffling lope". The key line in full is:
"Subject at no time appeared to be in a hurry walked with a
shuffling lope, slightly bent forward head down."
It is not quite clear exactly what Fouke means, but apparently the walk of Zodiac was distinctive enough that he remembered it and felt it worthy to note. Fouke later amplified on this somewhat ambigous description in the documentary on the Zodiac 2 Disc DVD. From a transcript provided by Doug Oswell and on the Howard Davis site, Fouke states it was a:
"
lumbering gait, sort of
stumbling along, like a
semi-limp."
See documentary video at 1:27:17.
On 9/27/69 three college girls at Lake Berryessa felt they were being watched by a man who behaved oddly, hiding in his car and then behind trees. Some think this man could be the Zodiac. One of the girls, called "Lorna" by Robert Graysmith in Zodiac Unmasked, gives an interesting description on pp. 395-396, parts of which I relate here, with the key part emphasized:
He was not distinctive, just an average, normal plain person, other than he gave us the creeps...I remember his face as square, all sides symmetrical. I don't remember him being pudgy, just compact...stocky, solid. The minute you mentioned the suspect was a swimmer, that felt so right about his body type.
I wouldn't say he had a limp, but he favored one leg when he walked. He was clean-cut, nice-looking, and wearing dark blue pants, pleated like suit pants, and a black sweatshirt with short sleeves, knitted at the ends."
So with these descriptions of an unsusual or distinctive walk by Zodiac we should consider if this matches any of the known suspects.
Credit to Doug Oswell for the following discovery.
In terms of Ted Kaczynski, David Kaczynski told the FBI in his Declaration of February 18, 1997:
"The FBI asked me if there was anything unusual about my brother's gait. I replied that his left foot is noticeably pigeon-toed and affects the way he walks."
