SEVENTEEN DEGREES FROM ROUNDUP

3/5/2014

2 Comments

 
In a previous article it was shown how Kevin Robert Brooks and his team of investigators had formulated a plausible reason behind the design of the 'Button Letter' and its associated Phillips 66 Petroleum Map.
The Button Letter was mailed to the San Francisco Chronicle on June 26th 1970, accompanied by a map of San Francisco and its vicinity. On the map, the Zodiac Killer had added his traditional crossed circle, centered over Mount Diablo, however, on this occasion he added the numbers 0,3,6 and 9 around its circumference, or more specifically, on the cardinal points. Crucially though, he also added a directional marker on the North facing compass point, as a positional indicator. 
It is believed, along with the inserted code, to possibly indicate the location of a hidden bomb buried by the Zodiac Killer. Although Kevin Robert Brooks is convinced, he has unearthed the true reason behind the killer's motive for the design of the Phillips 66 Petroleum Map, and the answer lies a little closer to home.
In many Zodiac communications, the Bay Area killer repeatedly taunted police and newspapers alike, promising to reveal his name. It was unsurprising however, that this never materialized, and in all likelihood it was never a realistic hope.
But it just may be, that despite his reluctance to offer us his name, he quite possibly offered us the next best thing, his residence or place of birth.
Donald Lee Bujok was born on July 6th 1936 in Roundup, Musselshell County, Montana, and Kevin Robert Brooks believes this crossed circle may indicate the county seat of Roundup, albeit in an extremely subtle way.
If we take the crossed circle and superimpose it over the center of Roundup, Montana, the directional North marker points directly to two adjacent counties. 
Picture
Firstly Petroleum County and secondly Phillips County, giving us the very real reason behind his choice of map in the first place, and the birth place of America's most elusive serial killer.
Picture
On the Phillips 66 Petroleum Map, the Zodiac Killer added a notation that his design "is to be set to Mag.N". Taken to be Magnetic North.
In 1970, Magnetic North was approximately 16.5 degrees.
If we adjust the crossed circle accordingly, by 16.5 degrees, it becomes even more significant, with the directional marker passing exactly over both county seats of Winnett and Malta, shown on the map to the left.
Most of this was addressed in the Phillip Petroleum Map Key article on December 26th 2013, however there is just a little bit more.
The county code numbers of Petroleum County and Phillips County are 55 and 11 respectively. These totaled up equal 66, to provide yet another interesting feature, bearing in mind the Phillips 66 Map.
If we now take a short trip on the west axis from Mount Diablo, to 3553 Mt Diablo Boulevard in Lafayette, we arrive at the Roundup Saloon, an old miners bar, established in 1932 and quite possibly as far as the Zodiac Killer was prepared to go in taking us back home. Thanks again to Kevin Robert Brooks.

It simply amazes me that these so called experts claim to want to see this case solved. Here our team has released the most significant evidence on a suspect since the case began. We have shown: what the puzzle on the bottom of the Exorcist letter actually said (when put together correctly,) what the Phillips Petroleum letter meant, what the 13 Hole punch card was referring to (13 years since the death of Deputy Otto Fossen) and the real meaning of the Halloween card and yet we have much more... Amazing, these people still underestimate me. We will soon see who's research holds up... I'm betting on ours.

    Why did the murderer of Paul Stine take the ignition keys from the car and his wallet. Here we will examine one possibility.

    Further analysis of the Pines Card and its relationship to the 13 Symbol Cipher, Button Letter code and 13 Hole Postcard. Also, was this card integral to the Donna Lass disappearance on September 6th 1970.

    Using blood pattern analysis and distribution to explain the story as it unfolded from the moment the killer requisitioned the taxicab in the theater district of San Francisco to the last possible sighting of the murderer.
    Picture
    Examining the most likely hot spot, the Zodiac Killer returned to after his murderous acts of evil, to narrow down a location to the small town of Benicia, a low crime rate, middle class community, with a population of roughly 5,000 in 1968/69.

    Experimenting with the idea that a silencer was used in the commission of the Blue Rock Springs attack and furthermore a silencer or modified compressor was either used or carried during all four attacks of the Zodiac Killer.
    Picture
    On a cold, dark night back on December 20th 1968, a young couple were enjoying a late night out, parked up in their Rambler, on a lonely gravel turnout, just off the unlit, narrow winding road of Lake Herman, when an unknown assailant shattered the tranquil night time air, gunning down both David Faraday and Betty Lou Jensen in cold blood and unleashing an unparalleled horror on a community, the like of which had never been seen before.

    Examining the logical exit routes, away from each of the murder sites, using the premise that the Zodiac Killer would immediately head for a secure or safe location after each crime, usually home.

    Analyzing the aftermath of the Lake Berryessa attack on Bryan Hartnell and Cecelia Shepard, including the handwriting on the car door.

    The Button and Little List letters were as intertwined as could possibly be. The story began with his choice of Mount Diablo as the focus and continued with his selection of the Phillips 66 Road Map itself.
