You Ache to know My Name, And so I'll clue you in. . .

7/22/2016

 
This article was written by Alex Lewis (Welsh Chappie), whose own site detailing Zodiac suspect Lawrence Kane, can be found here.

I said long before ever knowing the Name Xenophon that that "Sorry, No Cipher, Sorry, No Cipher" Message written in the form of an X has to be some sort of cryptic clue or message itself because it's a 'Double Cross', the Double Cross is the claim that after an Apology, He claims there is no cryptic clue or Message with this Card when, in fact, this very message is likely the clue itself. 

Now that I know of Xenophon, who's name was regularly shortened to 'XEN', it could very well be A 'X' on the ENvelope  = X EN to form the Name XEN, and that this is the Cryptic message where the writer truly is does "Clue you in". 

Now this is all pure speculation and opinion obviously but it's speculation and opinion I can show several pointers for in order to offer it as at least potentially credible. 

 The message on the card itself. . 


"I feel it in my bones, you ache to know my name, and so I'll clue you in."

The clue is in the Sorry, No Cipher written in the shape of an X on the inside of the ENvelope. X E N, is the 'Cipher' clue He apologizes about, it is the place where He clues us in on who He Is. He tells Us on the cards message "I feel it it My bones, You ache to know MY NAME, and so, Ill clue you in...." Many then think they need open the card for the 'Big Reveal' but that is not where the reveal of the name is hidden. It's Hidden in the X message of the ENvelope, that is where We'll find He clues us in!

1. "Sorry No Cipher, Sorry No Cipher" is not written on the Card itself, but rather, the inside of the letters envelope. Now some may argue this is of no significance but I would counter that, actually, it is because He's never done this before nor since the reception of this one single communication. He could, and I see no reason why He wouldn't do there was a reason not to do so, wrote this on the actual card itself as He wrote much else on it.

2. Zodiac makes a point, for some reason, to point out or make a claim that 'Sorry, No Cipher' which for me has always led me to suspect that there is one in this card and/or letter itself, we just have to find it. Now this apology would be insignificant to point out as anything meaningful if, up to this point, Zodiac had either, A) Sent a cipher with every single letter and/or card he'd ever sent this far and thus justifying an apology for His breaking His own 'Status Quo' or...

B) Every other letter in which He does not include a cipher He writes an apology for not including one. 

Case and Point, as simple example: He wrote numerous times post The Stine Murder and Initial Letter where He includes a swatch of shirt, even later enclosing a piece in a later communication. But the letter's in-between, He never once said "Sorry, No Blood Soaked Piece of Victom's Shirt" because He know's He isn't expected, nor has He said, He will always enclose a piece with every letter thereafter.

Then there's the little FACT of little Significance that this Man, Xenophon Lusby Anthony, is THE ONE AND THE ONLY MAN, ever Named by A Witness at the scene of an undisputed Zodiac Homicide as the "Possible Subject (responsible) in this Matter." The first piece of actual, not circumstantial, but actual evidence in the form of a positive Identification made by a witness that said Xen Anthony is the man who Murdered Paul Stine the Cab Driver.  No Other Identifications, no other solid  evidence found or put forward to link any suspect to the Zodiac Crimes exists, with this being the sole exception and if that is not enough to make Xen Suspect No. 1, at least until evidence is shown to significantly rule Him out, then I don't know what more could be.

  It's been shown time and time again in cold cases that go cold even for decades that within the original investigative files, the offenders name, or evidence linking Him to the crime at least, was there all along with Green River Killer Gary Rigeway as prime suspect, prime example. He passed a Lie Detector when originally questioned and had a (false) alibi. But His DNA sat in a storage evidence room for over a decade after DNA became possible to test.  It took a dogged Investigator in Dave Reichert to be promoted to Sheriff to solve it. His first, very first thing He did as newly elected Sheriff, was announce the reopening of the Green River case and later gave His reasons why as: "I went to that river time and time again to pull young girl after young girl out of it dead. That Had such an impact on Me, I swore I would never forget them and when I was in a position to be able to do it, I ordered that investigation be reopened." When Dave was told of the DNA from three victims being from the same man, and that that Man was in the DNA database and they got a Hit, He cut the Forensic Lab Lady off mid sentence on the phone to say: "It's Gary Rigeway, isn't it?" The reply was "Yes, Did you already know?" "No" Dave replied, "I've always just felt it was Him."

 Why won't SFPD agree to test the Partial DNA Sample they lifted from a Z letter when an outside agency offers to pay, such as a TV Show. They are offering the Dpt. the chance to potentially solve a long running cold case at no expense to their own budget, a budget in difficult financial times where Forensic Testing of evidence is selected sparingly in each case.

I absolutely know, without a shred of doubt, that if the Release had stated "Witness in murder of Cab Driver Identified Gaikowski as Possible Subject in this matter" then Tom would have banners all over His site claiming "ZODIAC: SOLVED." or "Proof Conclusive, Gaik named by Witness" and all that and there would be an absolute push for publicity of it. I don't want this for myself, don't mention me at all, but I don't get why nobody has picked this up and ran with it! It's a positive witness Ident for God Sake! Someone saw Zodiac murdering Stine, or at least in and around His cab at the scene, and then subsequently identified by Name the person responsible.

I mean, for God sake, when will the truth ever be of concern, when will justice for the victims be the main goal? If it's ego and personal agenda in play, more important for purposes of pride to prove your right and someone else isn't, then My God what is wrong with these people? You will never be able to prove a negative so if 'Your Suspect' wasn't Zodiac in 1968 and 69, He won't be 'The Zodiac' today, wasn't Yesterday, and still won't be tomorrow no matter how much self convincing, self denial and wishful thinking you engage in! The truth is the truth, and unlike a Lie or Falsehood, it never changes nor can be changed.

I just want the truth, if that means Xen is ruled out beyond a reasonable doubt, so be it and I accept in advance. But the one lead that has physical, not circumstantial, grounds and nobody is jumping on the SFPD about it = Not Understand. If I were in any position to do it myself, if I were a US Citizen and lived near SF, I'd be badgering SFPD, FBI and everyone else until I got answers.

I, like you have always placed great significance in the 'sorry no cipher' on the envelope inner, as its sole intention was to create either a letter X or a multiplication sign. It certainly wasn't there for decoration. The cross it forms is similar to what he does with PARADICE and SLAVES, this is the main cryptic message. It may not be a cipher, but nevertheless there has to be some logic to the 'sorry no cipher' construction, along with his paradice/slaves design. It is not inconceivable these two features are interconnected and this is where I would be looking next to develop your theory.

Alex Lewis
7/23/2016 04:09:09 am

Very Possibly. But the theory I originally put forward Rich you can attest to it yourself: How long have I said that reading between the lines of what Fouke said and the way in which He said it, I believed He knew who it was He spoke with, and that the person He spoke with Lived in the area?

I maintained that Fouke's reply on why He didn't think A suspect going toward a house was important to report said: "I didn't think about it in the report because I assumed He (The suspect) didn't live in the Neighborhood." I always believed Here He is saying He didn't think about the WMA in His report because He knew after speaking to Him that He was a genuine resident of the area and He therefore wouldn't be who He was out there seeking for A Cab Robbery/Homicide. Fouke even states Later "I think I second Guessed Myself that Night."

He doesn't come out and physically say He determined the WMA He encountered lived close by, but He hinted at it in so many statements He made.

I also said I believed that, based on Zodiac directing Paul to drive along Washington St rather than Jackson St that this is illogical for a man heading for The Presidio, there is absolutely no reason to direct Paul to Washington and have to then Backtrack not to the Presidio via Cherry, but along Cherry and then down Jackson if again He was headed for the Presidio.

The only answer to Why Zodiac, or any Homicidal Nut for that matter, would do this most counter intuitive of things that would make any sense at all is if He lived close by on Jackson somewhere and thus, knew that killing Stine there would be far too risky because He could likely not just be spotted, but spotted and recognized as a local resident.

And Rich You and I even then had a discussion on How far would be a safe distance away from His Home if He lived on Jackson to the actual site of the Crime, one street over on Washington, but how many blocks away? One? Two? Three?

I know this may just sound like a brag "I'm right" but that is not any part of why I say this. I mention it because all these things were things I put forward as a theory based on what I believed the most logical conclusions were to several known facts and details. Then My Theory of a Zodiac choosing Washington and Not Jackson must mean He lived on Jackson, that's the most logical answer because He was observed heading down Jackson meaning He ignored Cherry's Entrance to the Presidio.

He has to be heading somewhere on that street was the only answer for me. Then that FOIA came back and I had no way of knowing that the person ID'd by the Eight Year Old would turn out to reside on Jackson, but it didn't surprise Me and just confirmed what I had always believed and stated regarding Fouke and His seeming to hint that He eliminated the WMA that night as being involved because He seemed to suggest without actually saying it that He knew the fella lived in the area, which for Zodiac to direct Paul to Washington one street over and away from Jackson, would make perfect sense if Zodiac lived on the latter of these two streets.

This doesn't mean I'm right, nor that Xen is Zodiac. But when you have a theory based on several circumstantial factors can be shown to be factually accurate, then surely that theory has become to be one that's credible because the newly discovered evidence begins to corroborate and substantiate it.

If the 8 year old witness was the person we identified, then his confirmation would go a long way to explain where the sighting occurred. Without it there is impasse.

Alex Lewis
7/24/2016 05:26:57 am

It's funny you should bring up this because this very Eight yr old witness and their location and/or that of the WMA He/She Identified as Xen was when the observation occurs.

I think it's a safe assumption to make given the witness is stated as being Eight yrs & the Darkness of Night falling hours ago that evening that this witness was not out playing and/or wandering around the streets. As such, the observing of the WMA by witnesses would overwhelmingly have been from the confines of His or Her residential home.

I've been championing all along, given the specific words or terms used in the Document that there is no other scenario or available option as to where this witness saw the Suspect other than at the Cab/Scene itself because it is simply not possible to Identify anyone as the individual they believed was responsible for a homicide unless that witness see' s the person there at the scene itself.

However. . .

I have been sat browsing an old Zodiac book and just tyrying to think extensively whether there are any other ways or scenarios open to allow Said witness to see Xen, or a person He/She believes is Xen at anywhere other than the scene itself and still justify that witness stating Xen is the Man He/She believed was the possible responsible and I have though of one other potential that could allow this to happen and that is:

Eight yr old is in Residence, maybe even Bed, when *Crash* or *Smash* or maybe even a simple side gate that's been opened now shutting and is recognizable as His or Her own gate. Curiosity peaked, id get's up, walks to the window overlooking His/Her own rear Garden and see's come into view, head over to an area by the rear garden fence where He appears to be crouching.

All above is written as an off-hand example, but it's an example in which the child would be justified, or have good grounds for doing so, informing LE He/She believes the man observed in their garden was Xen, which would then Justify SFPD's statement of the witness identifying Xen as the 'Possible Subject in this matter."

I mean, Police would investigate any such report of that nature, a WMA coming off street appearing to be attempting to Hide, and would most obviously logically conclude that He, WMA is not there to plant some Conifer Trees but is extremely likely to be their guy.

I personally still am going with the sighting of Suspect by witness as suspect is either In the cab, maybe exiting it, or at very least is wiping it down and clearly associating His Person with the actual scene for witness.

What do you think Rich?

Alex Lewis
8/7/2016 09:45:17 am

"If the 8 year old witness was the person we identified, then his confirmation would go a long way to explain where the sighting occurred. Without it there is impasse."

Well, the idea or concept of contacting this witness if it is discovered who this witness is without an doubt that is, I wouldn't be opposed to an attempt to cntact them be it by Telephone, Mail or any other means. Would I would say, and people are free to do as they wish obviously, what I'd advise then is that if you get silence as a response, or a response of 'Please don't contact me regarding this, go away' sort of thing mate then, whoever this eight year old is, thy should immediately be left Rich. That's just a personal Moral perspective mate because I don't think it's right, nor fair to them, to have Me come along and start bringing up extremely traumatic events and memories they have from one Night in their childhood.

This kid was Eight ears old mate, Eight, they did not campaign for their street to star in the next episode of Homicidal Rage. They didn't put in a personal request for a personal appearance from the Celebrity Nut Case of the time, Zodiac and chose to see what they saw that night. They were just in a time and space occupied by themselves and someone else who represented the manifestation of what Evil is, conjured up from the bottom of Humanity's pit where the sociopath & psychopath crawl out from and spill into our paths.

They, the witness, don't require us to put a question to them before they can speak as to the events of Oct 11, 1969 Mate, they are free to use places such this very site to come forward and they have chosen not to do that. For me, that's not accidental.

I am fairly confident that 'witness in the murder' seems to indicate some form of direct line of sight with the taxicab, close enough to recognize the said subject. It must be an amazing coincidence the 3898 Washington Street house overlooking the crime scene just happened to have a young lad aged 8 years and 2 months living there in 1969. No doubt if a gunshot was fired here, you may not hear it, but it may be the trigger that wakens you, or possibly a door slamming. Or you may be just nosing, like young kids do.
You have to be fairly close to the subject to recognize him, so if the Zodiac did spend a minute or so in and around the taxicab, then the 8 year old sighting carries greater weight and the likely identification of the subject too. If only we had more context to the sighting. If this is a significant sighting, then I am disappointed by the amount dedicated to it in the FBI files. By recognizing this sighting but then dedicating just five lines to it seems dismissive. The 8 year old holds the key, we're fairly sure who it is, and it's this person who can give us the context of the sighting.

Richard
7/24/2016 06:13:57 am

I am confident the document I have requested from the FBI ie; the follow up page to the one you secured will reveal the name you found (Xen). This had four redacted names, but only one with FBI attached to it.This was 16/41 on PDF2. This redacted section is identical to the length of the redacted section you revealed. It is also the follow up in comparing fingerprints, that may suggest how seriously they took this sighting. Also were the other three names somehow connected, either family members or Jackson Street residents.

Alex Lewis
7/30/2016 12:40:44 pm

"It is also the follow up in comparing fingerprints, that may suggest how seriously they took this sighting."

Well I would say Rich that it's already safe to assume that the fingerprint comparison for all named suspects will be 'Negative' because if any had been matched, we'd obviously not be here now discussing the Zodiac case as Unsolved.

With Zodiac Rich and what He asserts, claims and declares I take with a pinch of salt and do so with His claim of 'Contrary to what the police say I have left no fingerprints behind..." and claims He was planting fake clues. But this fingerprint, I really don't know/can decide if it's His left at the scene via mistake. Now I may appear to be explaining away the print evidence for fear that it will not atch Xen, and I can see how it looks but this I say with absolute truth... If someone said to me "They've compared Gaik's print to the one at the cab and it doesn't match" I would give exactly the same response of "Well that's interesting to note, but I am not discounting Him or ruling Him out based on it."

The truth is that the fingerprint is a print that, at face value, seems to have been left by the offender. It's not a Latent Print but one visible to the eye due to it's coating of Blood. This would seem to be highly suggestive of a print that could only have been left by one Zodiac Serial Nut. And, there is my issue.....It's possible suggestion at play again. That print is just begging them who discover it to be accepted for what it appears to be, just like a child in a classroom who knows the answer to the teachers question and is waving their hand in suspense hoping the teacher will see and pick them to give the answer.

Zodiac addressed this fingerprint directly in His response/rebuttal to Chief Lee which, had that print been His, I wouldn't have thought He'd happily bring up in a letter. His tone in addressing this fingerprint comes across, on paper at least, as being written by a man who is not in the least bit worried nor concerned as He addresses the potential evidence that could lead to His downfall and capture. He doesn't write as a desperate Man trying His best to convince the readers not to accept that this is His print, to the contrary, He addresses it, casually dismisses it as nothing more than a fake clue to amuses Himself with by watching cops run all over town using it to try to out Him.

Now if, on the other hand, the DNA partial Profile was compared with the DNA of Xan,or a close relative of His and subsequently found Xen has zero chance of contributing that DNA found behind the stamp on Z's letter, now that would lead Me to conclude that, based on the preponderance of evidence, Xenophon isn't Zodiac.

"I am fairly confident that 'witness in the murder' seems to indicate some form of direct line of sight with the taxicab"

I've been 99.9% sure of that from day 1 of coming across that Document. That in and of itself Richard was why I was so focused on getting the name released. I knew instantly when reading the statement "FOR INFO IDENT DIVISION: SAN FRANCISCO PD ADVISED EIGHT YEAR OLD WITNESS IN MURDER OF TAXI DRIVER IDENTIFIED * * * * * * AS POSSIBLE SUBJECT IN THIS MATTER" that just from the wording alone here this witness not likely, not probably, but had to have seen 'SUBJECT' mentioned in that statement at the scene or at the very least, saw something that was incriminating because to identify someone as possibly responsible for a crime, you'd have to see them committing it or see something that incriminated/implicates them in it.

There's no other option for Me Rich, He/She saw Zodiac at the cab and if He/She is ever willing to come forward, I am absolutely confident this will be clarified.

Richard
7/30/2016 12:55:30 pm

I agree that the fingerprint on the taxicab is not to be given a 100% backing to it being Zodiac, it may be likely, but without details of who was around the taxicab that night, whether all exclusion prints were taken and how the taxicab was preserved, it is impossible to say with certain. However fingerprint comparison wasn't just used in the San Francisco case. Suspects fingerprints, such as Xen, would have been compared to fingerprints lifted in the other cases and the letters, although whether any of these were Zodiac's either is doubtful, after countless people handling the letters. The best evidence may come from the Exorcist letter with the palm print. Many criminals if not all knew about fingerprint identification, but palm prints were another matter. Unfortunately not many would be present in old records.

Richard
7/30/2016 12:59:52 pm

I wrote this on another article. How about this for a wacky idea.
I don't necessarily subscribe to this, but I will lay it out nonetheless. I shall work backwards through the events that night. Donald Fouke spots a man walking on Cherry 35-45 years of age, 5'10", blond hair, brown wool pants, he described as older and heavier. The teenagers describe a man 25-20 years of age, 5'8"/5'9", reddish-brown hair, dark trousers. Let us assume these are separate individuals both connected to the taxicab. The young suspect spotted by the teenagers and the older suspect who effectively implicates himself by sending the coppers off looking for a man with a gun and stating he saw the police by Jackson and Maple in the letter, which turned out true. So both can be traced back to the taxicab. The teenagers never heard a shot and only came to the window when the 'assailant' was seen leaning over Stine on the front seat. We don't know the time that had elapsed from the taxicab arriving to the time the teenagers looked out of the window. The two accomplices arrive at Washington and Cherry in the taxicab, one of the occupants shoots Paul Stine, likely the older man and leaves with the firearm up Cherry and travels along Jackson where he stumbles into Donald Fouke and directs him away from the taxicab, the second younger man enters the front of the taxicab to remove the piece of shirt, Stine has been shot, but this subject has no weapon. If anybody arrives he can simply say he saw the shooting and entered the taxicab to help the driver, removing the shirt piece to plug the wound, or ripped it in trying to haul Stine from the floorboard, whatever. He has the perfect cover story, he has no weapon on his person. If police now arrive he can direct them away from his partners direction. They didn't however so he didn't need the cover story and departed up Cherry. The teenagers never saw the first man leave the cab, only the second. The shirt piece was the prized souvenir to send to the Chronicle, so the key was to separate the gun from the scene as quickly as possible, leaving the co-conspirator to remove the shirt piece with a back-up cover story just in case. The older man spotted by Fouke inadvertently helped the accomplice by directing Fouke away from Cherry. But regardless, the younger accomplice left shortly after his cohort, maybe even saw his friend stopped and concealed himself somewhere, possibly behind a car on the south side of Jackson, had he even got that far. The younger man could easily have stuffed the shirt piece down his trousers or underwear, again if the worst was to happen, he was stopped and had been patted down no weapon would have been felt by the police. To have killed Paul Stine and removed the shirt, while still holding the smoking gun seems the less desirable option. This however is just a throw away idea, not to be given too much consideration.

Richard
7/30/2016 01:07:05 pm

What this actually does is separate one person from the fingerprint anyway. So if the younger man inadvertently puts his blooded hand on the taxicab, the actual murderer doesn't, so a suspect in the case may not be matched despite committing the crime.

Alex Lewis
7/30/2016 04:07:46 pm

Well that's not such a wacky idea if you look at the SOS case, a case which has an almost identical MO to the Zodiac's. SOS's victims were almost always young couples in vehicles. Shot by unknown lone gunman. Gunman wrote letters taking credit as a long nut and so on. Well as you know, Berkowitz has since stated there were several others involved with Him, and has named names and offered evidence which has been confirmed and some NY Detectives are in no doubt that David did not act alone. He stated that on a night where a Kill was planned in a certain area, there'd be the actual shooter, and several what He referred to as 'Spotters' dotted in and around the area.

In Z's case, you mention the possibility of the 2nd man leaving the cab before witnesses have chance to look out and see Him. Possible. Maybe He was let out at Maple?

But going back to the print, there are some who suspect that Hal Snook is somehow involved in the Z Crimes based on His hand printing looking almost identical to that of Zodiac's (which I Myself, to my untrained eye, totally agree with that concept).
Well if We imagine for a moment He is involved, then Zodiac has hit the Jackpot as far as landing a co-conspirator goes.

Hal's Obit. declares:

"He specialized in crime scene and narcotic investigations and was IN CHARGE of the crime laboratory. He was recognized by the U.S. Supreme Court as an EXPERT in narcotics and FINGERPRINT IDENTIFICATION."

Well if anyone knows how to plant a fake print, Hal certainly does. Plus, if He's co-conspiring with Zodiac the killer then Zodiac is right that police shall never catch Him because He's been too clever because Zodiac could deliberately become a POI by one means or another, knowing the police will ask for His fingerprints, and He could gladly give them over to NAPA PD for comparison knowing His buddy and co-conspirator Hal Snook is in charge of the very lab that will be conducting the comparison thus, declaring Him 'No Match' when and essentially eliminated from the list of suspects.

Just a thought.

The reason I bring this up, being open minded, is the bullet removed from David Faraday did not show the same class characteristics as the other seven bullets, and the DOJ report only tested 9 of the ten casings, and you can likely guess which casing went missing.

Ray Grant has kindly sent off a request to the DOJ enquiry about this discrepancy. It's a long shot, but you never know.

Alex Lewis

"
The reason I bring this up, being open minded, is the bullet removed from David Faraday did not show the same class characteristics as the other seven bullets"

Well there was one media report immediately after LHR Happened that made the claim that the first shot was likely fired from a snipers rifle, and made mention of the dark foliage on the other side of the gated area where an odd, out of place depression (such as would be seen if a rather heavy man was kneeling down on one knee) was discovered in the Earth.

If your setting yourself to take a shot at a target using a rifle with scope, then finding this impression in the Earth would make perfect sense because the shooter would likely kneel to take aim and in doing so transfer the majority of His weight to the right leg & knee if right handed and vice versa.

No I certainly have never discounted the theory of more than one person either involved ie, A killer and Writer, or even more than one active Zodiac Killers. You can't go from a brown wavy haired man (hungdown across forehead) and 220 - 250lbs of, in Cecelia & Bryan's words 'Overweight, bulky and blubbery fat looking' in the dying days of Sept. then two weeks later almost to the day show up and have the same man described as having lost His fringe to a widows peak and also lost His fat bulky frame replacing it now with a Medium Heavy/Stocky Build, 180 -210lbs with a barrel chest.

Either it's the known unreliability of witness recollections at play here because if both descriptions are accurate in each case individually, then both descriptions seem to have to be of two different individuals.
