TAPED CONFESSION OF A KILLER

10/3/2019

 
In a series of articles it has been shown that the Zodiac Killer was extremely unlikely to have reappeared in 1974 firing off four communications - of which three were primarily aimed at the feature film industry, newspaper advertising and columnists - with the other referring to the SLA directly. If this was the Zodiac Killer, then it seems he had suddenly become a film critic, calling for the removal of advertisements for the Badlands movie and the cancelling of the San Francisco Chronicle's Count Marco column. The Zodiac Killer was suddenly objecting to murder glorification, the very thing he perpetrated to propel his pseudonym onto the pages of the San Francisco Chronicle, San Francisco Examiner and Vallejo Times-Herald. He was perfectly comfortable stabbing and shooting defenceless women in the back, but was now furious with the male chauvinist Count Marco for his ridicule of women. The claim that the Zodiac Killer had now apparently turned his life around and was repenting for his sins is an extremely difficult argument to sell, when we consider that a far better option exists with the left-wing militant organization of the Symbionese Liberation Army. This group fought for the rights of women, the oppressed and the hungry, albeit with a misguided view of how to achieve it. Their disdain for the Hearst Corporation, the capitalist media and the greedy corporations was evident in everything they wrote - and saturated throughout the four communications mailed from January 29th to July 8th of 1974. In a previous article, inspired by the findings of Rubislaw32, we showed a 5/23/74 communication that threatened the daughter of President Richard Nixon and signed off with "a concerned citizen", postmarked only 15 days after the "Citizen Card" purportedly mailed by the Zodiac Killer.    
Picture
It has been argued that the Symbionese Liberation Army mimicked the Zodiac Killer many times, but equally, some of their communications may have inadvertently been mistaken for the Bay Area murderer. Several members of the group even mimicked the Zodiac introduction of "This is the Zodiac Speaking" in a series of taped communications spanning February through June of 1974, with a barrage of threats toward Randolph A. Hearst, the newspapers and various corporate entities

On February 8th 1974, Donald David DeFreeze sent Taped Comminique No.4, beginning "My name is Cinque and to my comrades I am known as Cin. I am a Black man and a representative of Black people. I hold the rank of General Field Marshal in the United Federated Forces of the Symbionese Liberation Army. Today I have received an order from the Symbionese War Council, the Court of the People, to the effect I am ordered to convey the following message in behalf of the SLA and to insert a taped word of comfort and verification that Patricia Campbell Hearst is alive and safe". This was one of many taped messages from members of the Symbionese Liberation Army in 1974.  

Picture
The communique continued, protesting the Hearst family and their profiteering from murder and suffering, primarily through the newspapers of the San Francisco Chronicle and San Francisco Examiner. Not surprising then, that on May 8th 1974, the San Francisco Chronicle should receive the "Citizen Card" stating "Sirs -- I would like to expression my consternation concerning your poor taste + lack of sympathy for the public, as evidenced by your running of the ads for the movie "Badlands", featuring the blurb: "In 1959 most people were killing time. Kit + Holly were killing people." In light of recent events, this kind of murder-glorification can only be deplorable at best (not that glorification of violence was ever justifiable) why don't you show some concern for public sensibilities + cut the ad?  A citizen". Followed only 15 days later from another "concerned citizen", threatening the White House of Richard Nixon, who is equally highlighted in the taped communiques of the Symbionese Liberation Army.

Although the Hearst Corporation were not directly involved with the Exorcist and Badlands movies, the disdain for their involvement in "propaganda films for both national and international use" is apparent and relevant. when we consider the mocking nature of the Exorcist Letter towards the film on January 29th 1974, and the concern over the Badlands movie and its murder glorification in the newspapers through advertising on May 8th 1974. This is further bolstered when we consider the confrontation between Orson Welles and Randolph Hearst with regard to the "Citizen Kane" film (released on May 8th 1941 in Los Angeles), with Randolph Hearst demanding that the newspapers "cut the ads" for the film after becoming aware the movie was depicting him as the central character. The May 8th 1974 Citizen Card combined all the elements of "cutting ads", Randolph Hearst, Citizen Kane, "murder glorification" and the San Francisco Chronicle under one neat banner - and all referenced in the taped communiques of the Symbionese Liberation Army, spanning not only the Citizen Card, but encompassing all 1974 communications thought to be from the Zodiac Killer

Then came the spoken introductions to some of the taped Symbionese Liberation Army messages. Was this further proof that the Symbionese Liberation Army were mimicking the Zodiac Killer, at a time when the newspapers were replete with column inches speculating the return of the Zodiac Killer?

D = Zodiac symbol
O = Omega symbol
N = North symbol

DON
1- De Freeze
2- Cheney
3- Harden
4- Bujok

D = 4th letter of the alphabet
4 dots in the VF symbol
4 ways to die
4 directions
4 double deeds done
The fourth deed done on Oct. 11, 1969 - two 1's in eleventh of October.
The double L's - even in the letter "E" he used two L's to make the "E"
The reason he could have been fixated on letters is in his last name.

Robert Preston Linkletter is a very interesting possibility

But the double "L" could also refer to a map coordinate term
latitude and longitude AKA - North # x West #

Again - like Richard - I'm not selling a suspect - I just want to
find out who or what the Zodiac is. I'm sold on the notion that
the handwriting is from the Hardens. But, who farmed it out?
Because it is hard to picture Don 40 years old running around the hills shooting and stabbing people. Some government group or private company had to of hired these separate tasks performed with the help of a computer. Exactly who thinks this was all done by a single individual? He would of had to have too much knowledge in too many areas. Then to be a phantom in the night and be able to just disappear without a trace. This is too much for any two people. There has to be wealthy benefactors, CIA dirty killers, FBI corrupt informer types, and crazy code/letter writers (the Hardens), all together forming a corporation with everyone signing confidentiality agreements. For political reasons and for money. For the sales of guns. For the dividing of the vote. For the terrorizing of the public. For the sales of drugs. And for the push of religious ideology. The devil is coming for your kids type narrative. So buy a 44 magnum and vote for more cops, and more jails. Because those peace loving - tree huger's are going to get us all killed. 21 March 1963 they closed down Alcatraz Federal Prison because on June 11, 1962, Frank Morris, John Anglin, and Clarence Anglin carried out one of the most intricate escapes ever devised. And, this brought unwanted attention revealing the terrible conditions for the inmates. Then Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy ordered the penitentiary closed.

The SLA were really a group of prisoners taking advantage of the Idealism of hippie kids like the cons that they were they sold them "The Hippies"on the prison reform notion. But that was just yet another angle for them to exploit for their benefit as in the end some proved to just be bank robbers.

But the Zodiac does seem to be linked to the idea of reform for prisoners as Rusty Bunch was killed on October 11 1968 in the Presidio stockade. And the killing of Paul Stine was a protest killing exactly one year later.
