The Zodiac /// Part 1 
 

Part 1 of 5

 

A killer without a name. Letters filled with threats. Ciphers that challenged police and the public.

In the late 1960s and early 1970s, the Zodiac terrorized the San Francisco Bay Area and demanded attention through chilling communications with the press and police. His identity remains one of true crime’s most debated mysteries.

The 2018 arrest of Golden State Killer Joseph DeAngelo renewed hope that even decades-old cases could yield answers. Could investigators finally unmask the Zodiac?

Join Nic and the Captain in the Garage as we trace the timeline of Zodiac’s confirmed attacks, examine the evidence, and offer our speculation and insights along the way.

Grab a chair. The investigation starts here.
