Default Anyone catch the Zodiac Killer adding another victim to his list last night?

CNN, king of rigged debates and coached citizen questioners THAT TOTALLY WERE NOT COACHED, lured the Zodiac killer into their den of iniquity last night.

Unfortunately for CNN no amount of stacking the deck could overcome the fact that instead of putting a lion in the cage with him, they served up a feeble brain damaged old hippie moron.

It was not pretty. Lyin' Ted (he's a nasty guy) notched up another one.

I actually remember when the Zodiac Killer was happening. It was going on in Northern California and I was in Los Angeles, but it was a pretty damn scary time.

I found myself in San Francisco for a weekend during that. Really put a damper on the nightlife.

I don't think they ever caught him, but here is a little trivia...

The original Dirty Harry film was loosely based on Zodiac (Scorpio etc.)

There was a very popular wristwatch brand from the 50's through the 60's named Zodiac. The company almost tanked because of the killings.

interesting read:

Another coincidence - or more evidence - was that Myers was deployed to Germany with the Army from 1971 to 1973, a time period during which the Zodiac, who frequently sent letters and codes to newspapers and cops, sent nothing at all.

Remember that idiot that bragged on CF about how he could easily make those shots? Wasn't as funny to him after they raided his house and arrested him.

I wish I could remember his name, he was at a few Cruise Ins.

He went in all the threads and talked about how that was near him, and he could easily make those shots.

ATF monitors CFOT, raided his apartment, detained him and questioned him.

They don't read every thread, but if someone puts "gun" in the headline, it gets scanned.
