Everly filed a story and returned to his car. The windscreen on the right was smashed. It seems that an experienced thief did it. Only a few things are missing. His Wells Fargo check book was taken with checks 118 to 125. One of his expensive Sony recorders, which had been used to interview a Zodiac clue provider who deliberately lowered his voice, was missing. Worried, Everly called the police. Gerald Durham and William Sievert reported it. Then Avery noticed that a large gray briefcase with his initials "p. A." "On it had been stolen. He once stuffed a whole set of newspaper clippings about the zodiac in his briefcase. The killer seems to have known the contents of the reporter's memo and the Sunday special before they were published; the killer may have used newspaper teletype paper and stationery from Woolworth's down the street. What if the Zodiac enters the building in the middle of the night? Although the newspaper operates 24 hours a day, only a few key members work at night. Security for the entire building consists of a security guard and a high desk at the Fifth Street entrance, but the back door has two stairways and two elevators leading to the editorial floor. In addition, there is a passage through Mina Street, which connects the Observer and the Chronicle, allowing people to walk from one newspaper to the other. A Chronicle printer believed that the Zodiac actually worked there. "Many of the zodiac's cipher symbols are also proofreading symbols used by printers," he told me. "The zodiac's own logo (referring to the circle with the cross) is a symbol used by proofreaders to line up corrected places and record colors on tissue paper. His method of ordering pages was the printer's method: 1/6,outdoor hot tub, 2/6, and so on, to alert typesetters and proofreaders to changes in the print run. The arrow on the school bus diagram is also the printer's arrow, not just a line and a V with the mouth down,endless pool swim spa, but the 'V' is filled in. "When the Zodiac started writing letters, the newspaper was trying to enter the electronic age with a computer system called Bregan," he added. The paper used for typing is a cheap folding paper used by the zodiac. Newspapers used to give us blue woolen-tipped pens (because they wouldn't print on the originals that passed through the scanner), printers used them to write instructions, and typesetters used them to record questions about spelling and continuity. Editors at the Chronicle eventually turned their suspicious eyes on two former employees. Editors looked at their attendance records to see if they had missed a day that coincided with the Zodiac's crime and letter writing days. One of the workers had suffered from severe depression several times and disappeared on a night shift, leaving a note asking for sick leave for four years. The other one also disappeared, leaving four paychecks unclaimed. Monday, 26 October 1970 In north Sacramento, whirlpool bathtub manufacturers ,whirlpool bathtub, two days after Everly's paperwork went missing, Nancy m., a 28-year-old court clerk and juvenile court assistant. Benarak didn't go to work. 。 Friends found her bloodied body with her throat slit in her room on the second floor. The unidentified killer entered the house through Benalak's open window, which was reserved for cats. She was supposed to get married on November 28. She wasn't sexually assaulted. Her apartment is only half a mile away from Nurse Judith Hakkari's apartment. Hakkari, 23, was snatched from the door of her North Side apartment after leaving work at a local hospital. Her body was badly beaten and she was found on a dark gravel road in a remote area of Placer County. She wasn't sexually assaulted. Like Miss Benalak, she was about to be married. Tuesday, 27 October 1970 The next afternoon, the Zodiac sent Avery a richly decorated Halloween card? Signature "Your secret partner". I compared it with an unaltered card and found that the zodiac had redrawn a lot of things. He carefully cut out a skull and an orange pumpkin and pasted them on the card. He drew two staring eyes and skillfully added calligraphy. It took him at least a day to prepare the card. "You can see how the zodiac likes to leave its own logo on the card," Toschi told me. "Also, 'Peekaboo' and the other words on the card are zodiac'masterpieces. '" The smiling skeleton on the card seemed to be giving Everly some kind of signal, and the signature was "your secret partner". The zodiac draws a small number 14 on the right hand of the skeleton, indicating the "14th" victim. News of Benalak's death came early the next day? Just showed up In the Chronicle. "As a result of the death threats sent to me by the so-called Zodiac Killer, I fully agree with the advice given to me by Armstrong and Toschi, who advised me to carry a gun to protect myself in an emergency," Everly wrote to police chief Al-Naird. Therefore, I formally request that I be issued a temporary permit to carry a concealed weapon. Naird agreed, not only giving Everly the privilege of carrying a.38-caliber revolver, but also allowing him to practice at the police firing range. At 9:45 p.m., feeling the reassuring weight of the.38-caliber pistol hidden in a holster under his jacket, Everly said goodnight to Nightly News editor Steve Gavin. He picked up his car from the multi-storey car park on Fifth Street and drove up Mina Street. On the corner of Sixth Street, Everly saw in the light of the car's headlights a fight in which one side was clearly dominant. About ten feet away, two men were wrestling. The first man was holding a hunting knife in his hand, and was thrusting it vigorously from the waist position. The second man, wounded in the chest,whirlpool hot tub spa, was folding his belt over one of his fists for protection, and as he retreated, he tried to fend off the attack with his arms. monalisa.com
