Zodiac Killer
Paul Stine. October 11, 1969, San Francisco cab driver Paul Stine was killed. The Zodiac Killer was a serial killer who operated in Northern California for ten months in the late 1960s. He coined his name in a series of taunting letters he sent to the press until 1974. His letters included four cryptograms, three of which have yet to be solved. The Zodiac murdered five known victims in Benicia, Vallejo, Lake Berryessa, and San Francisco between December 1968 and October 1969. Four men and three women between the ages of 16 and 29 were targeted. No connections between them have ever been discovered. They appear to have been victims of opportunity, nothing more. While it is often claimed that the Zodiac knew his victims, there has never been credible evidence to suggest this was true. Numerous others have been thought to be Zodiac victims, but the evidence is scant at best. The killer's identity remains unknown. (POLARIS) (FOTO:DUKAS/POLARIS) -

Zodiac Killer
Letter given to the Fayetteville Police taking credit for the murder of a female soldier. The letter refers to the symbol used by 1960's serial murderer the "Zodiac Killer" The body of a pregnant Fort Bragg soldier was found in a motel room bathtub after a maintenance supervisor smelled a foul odor coming from a room with a 'Do Not Disturb' sign, according to a search warrant released Thursday. The warrant revealed few other details about the death of Spc. Megan Lynn Touma, 23, a 2003 graduate of Campbell County High School who was found in her Fayetteville motel room Saturday. Police have called her death suspicious. The state Medical Examiner's Office examined her body Thursday, but toxicology results are pending and officials did not say when they would release an autopsy report. Touma, a dental specialist, was seven months pregnant and had recently arrived from a base in Germany. She was temporarily assigned to Fort Bragg's 19th Replacement Company before reporting to a dental clinic at Fort Bragg. (POLARIS) (FOTO:DUKAS/POLARIS) -

Zodiac Killer
Letter from the Zodiac Killers. The Zodiac Killer was a serial killer who operated in Northern California for ten months in the late 1960s. He coined his name in a series of taunting letters he sent to the press until 1974. His letters included four cryptograms, three of which have yet to be solved. The Zodiac murdered five known victims in Benicia, Vallejo, Lake Berryessa, and San Francisco between December 1968 and October 1969. Four men and three women between the ages of 16 and 29 were targeted. No connections between them have ever been discovered. They appear to have been victims of opportunity, nothing more. While it is often claimed that the Zodiac knew his victims, there has never been credible evidence to suggest this was true. Numerous others have been thought to be Zodiac victims, but the evidence is scant at best. The killer's identity remains unknown. (POLARIS) (FOTO:DUKAS/POLARIS) -

The critically acclaimed movie Zodiac (2007) was based on his books. (Gary Fong / San Francisco Chronicle / Polaris) (FOTO:DUKAS/POLARIS) -
