The most interesting part is that it says VPD was going to DNA test the letters. That's news to me.

Vallejo Lt. Rick Nichelman said the SFPD has returned a number of envelopes — possibly those tested in 2002 during the investigation of one suspect, Arthur Leigh Allen, who died in 1992 — to Vallejo for further testing.
"DNA testing of five years ago is not as efficient as it is now," Nichelman said. "It was not as good of a sample as they can test now."
