More than one of Zodiac's prints on the cab?

I don't think any of the prints are the Zodiacs. How stupid would he be to leave prints, esp. if he was in the military? No one should be eliminated because their prints don't match.

The Robbins kids who observed Z in and around the cab stated that Z was wiping down the cab with a rag, so why
would he take the time to do that if he was certain he had no prints on the cab ?

It's been said that all the prints in this case are partials. So, even if they have Zodiac's prints, they might not be sufficient to make a definite match.

Armond Pelissetti is on tape, stating he saw the blooded taxicab prints on the dividing panel between the driver side door and rear door as he ushered the kids back across the street. This means (assuming Pelissetti is telling the truth) that those blooded fingerprints weren't deposited by any ambulance crew, reporters or errant wandering bystander, as people with suspects would like you to believe. Anybody who has a suspect with fingerprints on file, have set the default position to discrediting this partial fingerprint on the dividing panel, just in case it is able to eliminate their suspect from being the donor. Discredit this blooded fingerprint, by pouring doubt on its origin, and your suspect is kept in the frame.



Whether enough detail exists on this partial fingerprint to rule out people comprehensively, I don't know. But just in case, discredit it first and you have no worries. Did you notice the two Napa bookstore videos got removed from Youtube just prior to September 27th 2018?

NAPA bookstore videos ??

Who's book was released on this date and what do you think those videos said about the blooded prints?

Hewitt's?

Exactly

Why would he be so worried about his prints that he wiped down the cab? He knew he was going to kill Stein. He would have planned ahead about the prints not wipe them down after. Maybe he was getting more blood on the shirt (rag) for affect. If he was in the military, as suspected, his prints would have shown up in military records by now. I just cannot rule someone out because their prints don't match. Interesting, worthwhile but not conclusive.

Does the print in the cab match prints found at other murder sites or phone booths? I guess if its just one finger print it might not as the same finger may not have left a print anywhere else.

Nope. A different part of the hand. Palm print and fingerprints.

If they had matching prints from different crime scenes belonging to the same person, clearly would be no room for argument or doubt.

The fact they have never been able to match different prints from different crime scenes etc is why there is some reasonable doubt if the prints belong to Zodiac or not.
