A MEMORIAL FROM ZODIAC

4/10/2019

 
PictureDonna Ann Lass
I would like to expand on a previously discussed topic, regarding two cards likely mailed by the Zodiac Killer on March 22nd 1971 and July 13th 1971, dubbed the 'Pines' and 'Monticello' cards respectively. The March 22nd 'Pines' card contained the phrases [1] Sierra Club  [2] Sought Victim 12  [3] Peek through the pines  [4] pass Lake Tahoe areas and [5] around in the snow. The 'Monticello' card stated "Near Monticello Shought Victims 21 ...... In The Woods Dies April." One can see the similarities, with "sought" and "shought", "woods" and "pines", as well as "near Monticello" and "pass lake Tahoe areas". They were both directions to the location of a murder victim, but crucially, both postcards held the victims forenames within the design of each. They were so cleverly designed, it is difficult to believe they were not authored by the same individual, with two words linking both cards - Memorial Park. A memorial park is a designated area for remembrance of the departed. 

In the case of the 'Pines' card, the author chose a postcard of "an artist's rendition of houses among the trees at a Boise Cascade Company project at Incline Village, where construction has just begun on the development". He then directed us to "pass lake Tahoe areas" to an area by the "Sierra Club". If we follow these simple instructions we find ourselves at two locations in close proximity. The first is Clair Tappaan Lodge on Donner Pass Road - but more importantly - the second is Donner Memorial State Park (preserving the site of the Donner Camp, where members of the ill-fated Donner Party were trapped by weather during the winter of 1846–1847, resulting in 39 deaths). Bearing in mind the 'Pines' card was thought to have been mailed by the murderer of Donna Ann Lass, this may be the motivation behind its design. The author was pointing us towards the Donner Memorial to signify the forename of his murder victim. Of course, this could be a simple coincidence and not the intended meaning behind the postcard. Therefore, if we can find the identical design or meaning within its sister card, mailed on July 13th 1971 (just 4 months later), then we can just call it a double coincidence, or quite possibly accept that the designer fashioned them both with the intention to give us the forename of the murdered women in question.

Picture
The July 13th 1971 'Monticello' card stated "Near Monticello Shought Victims 21 ...... In The Woods Dies April." So we need to be looking for a woman who was murdered in April, in the woods and near Monticello. On Sunday, April 11th 1971, Kathy Bilek (18) visited Villa Montalvo in Saratoga, having planned to read a paperback book (The Gabriel Hounds) and engage in a spot of bird watching​ in the seclusion of a remote, wooded portion of the park, near a small stream. Her body was found the next day by her father, Charles, while Santa Clara County Sheriff's deputies searched nearby. She had been stabbed 17 times in the back and 32 times in her chest and stomach. Villa Montalvo is situated 9 miles west of the neighborhood of Monticello. The author of the 'Pines' card directed us to a Memorial Park called Donner. In the case of the 'Monticello' card, the author didn't need to direct us to her body, because she wasn't missing - and therefore we have to discover the purpose behind him choosing Monticello. This has to be the clue to the woman's forename, as well as the destination of a Memorial Park, if we are to satisfy the template of the 'Pines' card. 

Fortunately for us, another coincidence exists. Sitting in the Monticello neighborhood is Oak Hill Memorial Park, where one of Zodiac's previous claimed victims is interred. The Zodiac Killer insinuated his involvement in the brutal stabbing of Deborah Gaye Furlong (14) and Kathy Ann Snoozy (15), who were found murdered on August 3rd 1969 in the Bay Area of San Jose. By writing "Aug" on the November 8th 1969 'Dripping Pen' card, he was effectively laying claim to the Furlong and Snoozy murders - and the very reason he chose the location of Monticello on the July 13th 1971 postcard. Not only was Kathy Snoozy buried at Oak Hill Memorial Park, but she shared the same forename as Kathy Bilek. The Zodiac Killer was leading us towards a memorial park and forename in both postcards - Donna and Kathy.

Richard this made me think of all the numbers associated to LaVey.
April 11th 1971, Kathy Bilek is murdered by stabbing 17 times and 32 times these are Zodiac numbers. They also correlate to The Church of Satan. Anton Lavey's birthday was April 11th. Although his time of death is a question Oct.29,Oct.30, or the 31st.- the date the media reported for selling papers they connected the Halloween date to his death - missing the greater significance of the date of October 30 being the same day of Cheri Jo Bates death - Walpurgisnacht. Anton's birthday is not a mystery though, born Howard Stanton Levey 18 letters in the state of ILL on April 11, 1930 - One of the 52 days every year referred to by the perpetual 13 Moon Calendar as Daliday. Another common mistake made is the referring to Oct.30 as Halloween forgetting that October has 31 days. It is clear Anton was obsessed with dates and numbers He was linked to the number of the beast 666 and therefore the numbers 18 which is 6+6+6 and the number 37 as 18x37=666 hence; Me-37 SFPD-0

Incline Village hosts the popular Ullr Fest in February to honor the Norse God of the Snow Ullr. His name is an epithet of an important god. He is continued in Old Norse tradition as Ullr, a god associated with skiing and archery. Old Germanic/Norse hunter hero and warrior god. Is said to have carried a sword in one hand and a Bow in the other .

AKA - Ull, Ulln, Ulle, and others. - pronounced - ool or oolar depending on the time period nad dialect.

https://www.britannica.com/topic/Ull


While snow is water - just in hard frosted particles - but in essence water.
The symbol L in Viking Runes means Water - The Zodiac killers sign was is most likely a water sign.
Double "L" = is the way the Hardens cracked it. So, why did they stop with the z408?

Richard - The name "William" seems to be most likely but that may be because the double L is more in that as a common name than other names prominent with the Letter L. Which the letter L really stands-out - standing alone in the Zodiac's correspondence.
"L" is the 12th letter of the alphabet - twelve months in the Zodiac.
Also the letter L is derived from translating the N to ^ the Greek Lamda or L in english.
The upside down v is the N or L depending on it's size. Does this mean the N is also a stand-out?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_alphabet
The Encoder ZODIAC used "LL" 12 times in the z408 with the words KILLING, KILLING, ALL, KILL, THRILLING, WILL, ALL, KILLED, WILL, WILL, WILL, and COLLECTING.
And L is a water reference of it's own.
L stands for water as in Lake, loch, lough. Runic Leek
Lake in latin is Lago - Old english Lagu

The chances of pinning down this guy's name from his correspondence is remote at best BB. I used to use many numbers games in my earlier articles like those Youtube videos now, but I deleted about 25 articles because I realized if you have a predetermined idea before you look at the correspondence, you will invariably find what you are looking for. The Halloween card is the prime example. Go to Google images and type in 'riverside city college 1916 logo' and tell me what it reminds you of. These patterns are everywhere. I once believed in my own idea of Dali, but don't anymore. Gareth Penn did the numbers game too, but I just don't buy it anymore. The same applies to alphabetical letters - you can literally make them say anything.

Riverside city college 1916 logo
There is a lot there - you may be thinking
1-Halloween colors black and orange
2-The stack of library books - a la - what CJB had in her car
3-The Lamp Lighters represented by the lit lamp
4-The 1966 date being the 50 year anniversary of RCC
5-By Fire - referred to by the flame of the lamp
6-Riverside = water reference
7-double L in college

This man's kids were killed on the Zodiac's D-day. And, then also committed suicide on another Doomsday - as well. He is buried next to Doreen - the other little girl he is suspected of killing in the same manner.

On the morning of Monday, October 4, 1965, Claude Ray Jr., drove to the Mendocino coast with his two youngest daughters, 9-year-old Jeanette and 7-year-old Renay. Estranged from his wife, Ray had offered to drive the girls to school in order to spend some time with them. Despite her husband’s recent threats to kill the children if she followed through with divorce proceedings, Mrs. Ray allowed her two youngest daughters to leave with their father that morning.

I will go on a kill ram-Page Fry. night. I will cruse around all weekend killing lone people in the night then move on to kill again, until I end up with a dozen people over the weekend.

His referring to Lone people is very important here.
One- "L" is key in his writtings - He made sure to say "Lone" not just people.
Two- The Zodiac is supposedly going around killing people in pairs, or couples, or doubles.
What does this say?

Rubislaw 32 link

Just a suggestion,BB,that '' LL '' might sometimes stand for '' 50/50 '' [?].

L is Latin numerals for 50.

"The author was pointing us towards the Donner Memorial to signify the forename of his murder victim. Of course, this could be a simple coincidence and not the intended meaning behind the postcard."

We all know the Donner group resorted to cannibalism to survive.

I would not think this is a clue to what happen to Donna and Zodiac had evolved to a point of cannibalism. Stranger things have happened with Serial Killers though. No Body has been found to date and that is rather rare for any cold case.

....Another Topic "Very Scary People" on HLN last night....

There is the well known media footage showing a Bryan Hartnell
interview in his bed at the hospital. They showed an excerpt I had not seen before.

In this interview Bryan claimed Zodiac as "Medium to Short height and Pouchy" I would imagine the average height in 1969 for a man was about 5'8" in 1969 as seen at link below.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11293346

Mageau said about 5'8" with round face maybe kinda big.

Foukes said 5'8" with stocky build.

To me Zodiac seem to have a Visalia Ransacker body type before GSK changed his appearance (lost weight, grew a moustache) after a sketch was made. A 5'8" round face sturdy butterball type body, but a bit older than the Ransacker.

At the bottom-center is a Lake.
It's called Mountain Lake.
It is just a few feet north from the streets Lake and Twelfth.
This nicely corresponds to points along the radian Line.
The symbol L in Viking Runes means Water.
"L" is the 12th letter of the alphabet - twelve months in the Zodiac.
The ZODIAC used "LL" 12 times in the z408 (The use of two L's is likened to the killing of couples)
" I will cruse around all weekend killing lone people in the night then move on to kill again, until I end up with a dozen people over the weekend." = Key word "Lone" with an "L" and a dozen = 12
The Black House at 6114 California St. in San Francisco is also Located along the radian Line. Also, add 6114=12
https://duckduckgo.com/?q=6114+California+St%2C+San+Francisco%2C+CA+94121&t=opera&ia=maps&iaxm=maps

z13 = ABCDEFGHIJKLM "A" is the symbol over the letters "A" & "L" ( Anton LaVey )

Hi Richard.

Do you know the letter or envelope,where ''Zodiac'' employs an exaggerated front to his '' R's '' ? And then forms an ''x'',with them.

So, '' R '' becomes '' Rx '' [?].

Would save me time,looking....and appreciated.

Richard
4/16/2019 04:47:37 am

Not offhand Rubislaw, but if I do you'll be the first to know.

BB
4/17/2019 07:45:07 pm

ll This is two lower case L's - it looks like the closest sight on a rifle.
i Also this is a lower case letter "i" which looks like most furthest sights.

The Zodiac symbol looks like the cross hairs "look" through a rifle scope.
Military men and cops spend a lot of time looking by/at/through these.
The Harden's cracked it with two L's and the letter i - perhaps the letter i has an anomalous aspect in his correspondence too.

Rubislaw 32 link
4/18/2019 05:17:30 am

Interesting,BB,and particularly,from a code breaking pespective.

Yes,the Hardens followed the basic initial ''rules'' for codebreaking,and ''Double L's'' and ''Double S's'' are not too unusual.

Interested,in particular,your mention of '' i's ''.....the ''personal pronoun'' of course....plus poetic connotations,like '' eyes '',for instance.

In any piece of English Language script,there ought to be around 40 - 45 % allocation,to vowels,through ''incidence'',With,of course,the alphabetic letter '' i '' being one such.

About 7% frequency,average,in the English Language,for the employment of '' i ''.

Of particular interest,for me...with Rubislaw 32's solution to the 1990 Celebrity Cypher.The very first discovey that I believed to have made,was that....

''Zodiac's'' solution to the ''Celebrity Cypher'',did ''not'' contain a single alphabetic letter '' i ''.

When,on probability basis,there ''ought'' to have been,at least 5 '' i's ''.

Early language critics and document examiners,had noted Zodiac's ''over'' regular use of the ''personal pronoun'',in his,Zodiac's correspondences.Well,he was a ''self'' kind of guy [!].

I have suggested that,therefore,the perceived ''lack'' of the alpabetic letter '' i ''.in the solution to the Celebrity Cypher....was an entirely deliberate decision,on Zodiac's behalf....as a ''dig'' at critics and document examiners,alike.

Melvin Mouron Belli AKA Melvin Bellicose
bellicose adj. - Warlike or hostile in manner or temperament. See Synonyms at belligerent.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Has anyone ever noticed the suspicious links of Belli to the Zodiac?
I'm not saying that he could've ran around killing people.
But that maybe he could have been the puppeteer.
His parents were of Italian ancestry from Switzerland which may have been where the German influence comes from for the Zodiac.
Lana Turner was represented by Belli. And, she dated Lawrence Klein. The links are too many not at-least mention. The 800 LB gorilla.
Belli - Double L's
He also represented William Peek-A-Boo Pennington with the add that had the Style of eyes on the Halloween Card.
etc. etc. etc.

BB
4/18/2019 09:47:08 am

Yes, the eyes on the Halloween card - definitely.
So, like a spiteful brat he had to make fun of the Hardens with the 13 eyes. Because he was upset over their pointing-out his being all ego.
It hurt his feelings. He is like a baby. All me me me.

A coincidence,or not,BB [?] :

Unobstructed ''candles'' that are either '' i's '' or exclamation marks :

Halloween Envelope : 3 [ Chronicle,Mission ]

Halloween Card Front : 3 [ it,in,in ]

Halloween Card Inside : 4 [ DOOMED !,BOO !,game !,spoil ]

Halloween Card Back : 3 [ PARADiCE,FiRE,KNiFE ]

Halloween Total '' i's '' : 13 [ Unobstructed 'candles' ]

Halloween Total '' eyes '' : 13

A ''Baker's Dozen'' of each.

''Butcher,Baker and Candlestick Maker''....comes to mind [?].

Computers had to be utilized for this number of machinations

Can't spell Zodiac with out C I A

The smear of peace loving - hippies as being;
1- The Manson's racist cultists doomsday preppers/murdering-rich-kids/Chop Shop mechanics/and gun nuts.
2-Guilt by association to drug-dealing Hells Angels. It's not - hippies were about Peace and dropping out.
3-Hippies were about getting high because they were against the war and found drugs to be a way of escape.
4-They sometimes found themselves mixed up in crazy cults but they were not into that either.
5-Hoover's and Nixon's evil campaigns against the hippies were hell bent on twisting the public's perception of them as evil draft dodgers out to destroy our Norman Rockwell world and turn us into our so called enemy - the USSR. The Red Scare was mainly what the 60's were all about. Propaganda/Yellow Press/Fake News
The Zodiac was supposed to represent "the Monster Hippie" - - - Look - up in the sky - it's Super-hippie.
The most evil of all the hippies - He makes fun of cops - He talks weird - He is stupid because he can't spell - and He is out to kill teenagers. So, don't you kids be like hippies. P.S. Parents be sure to buy a 44.Magnum.

"pass lake Tahoe areas" Also this could imply the ski resort area because skiers can purchase at ski resorts - to use the chair lifts a day pass or a half day pass for a lesser amount. LL and ll could also represent skis. Leonard Lake lived near. He was in the Process for a time. Plus his Asian American pal Ng and Cricket (his wife) assisted him in his murders and the filming of them. LL initials and there is a water association to the name Lake. Just another possibility.
