#10 Zodiac Killer's Letters: Analyzed by Dr David Van Nuys

[Soundfrequency]

Dr Van Nuys, these videos are incredible!

Perhaps this comment is a little late since the video was made around 4 years ago, but the most interesting thing, to me, is the idea of having slaves in paradise. What does it mean? Where did he get that idea from?

This is the most intriguing thing about the entire case, it feels like my brain is hungry to know what it means, is it possible that he thinks dominating people before their deaths will carry over into the afterlife?

@Soundfrequency Did you ever look into this?

Definately look into two areas. Satan worship/ Occult and Charles Manson. I'm a bit surprised it hasnt been put together here. There is also a quote from "Juliette" by Marquis De Sade where she mentions 'slaves for the afterlife'. Not only an old idea I think, but also one who lives in a delusion or has a creative mind could concieve easily. Fiction writers do it all the time, did the Zodiac or did he rip it off from something he read? Charles M??

The problem is that most people that fit the psychological profile of the Zodiac are harmless. You need real evidence.

[schuey999]

Thank you for the series. Very much enjoying this.

[EV150]

Zodiac most definitely did NOT have any desire to be caught!

[creepysonofabitch]

As you said Zodiac said "The cops could have caught me last night..." could be taken as a taunt or as a way to inform them on how to actually catch him...I think it was a bit of both, and telling them he was going to kill kids on a school bus was a test, because that doesn't fit the way Zodiac works. He doesn't kill out in the open, and he'd have to in order to take out a school bus.

Thanks again Dr Van Nuys-

another fan from the UK.

[fugusushi]

'...kiddies as they come bouncing...' - this is a highly affected why of speaking and has a clearly effeminate tone... once again, you look at the literal 'I'm gonna kill some kids' and miss the real gems this guy is letting slip -- which should lead to further profile insights, no?!

new shirt, nice

[skinster1]

keep it up! another oerson captivated from the uk

[ABCGoogs]

Dr. Van Nuys, this is great. Keep it coming!

BUT I think you should investigate the psychological profiles of the main suspects. Tell us what you think about them and who you think the Zodiac Killer was.

[youngeruk]

One day when you have the time (i wish i had you're energy) i would love to hear any insights you have on the letters of jack the ripper. thanks Dr Dave..

[efxdavid]

I didn't know Jack The Ripper wrote letters. It's not a case I ever followed, though I did go on a guided "Ripper" walk through London a few years ago. Are the letters online?

[youngeruk]

The City of London police and various news papers received letters purporting to be from the ripper during the time he was active in 1899. he also left some cryptic writing on a wall. some of the letters contained details only the killer could have known.

i should imagine the correspondences are available on the web as many books have been written on the subject.

[gertomaniac]

aren't they proven to be faked by a journalist who read a novel about spring heeled jack?

[AwsiDooger]

Absolutely he wrote letters. That was a staple of the Ripper crimes. He included half a kidney from one victim, similar to Zodiac verifying Stine via the bloody shirt. Some of the letters are considered hoaxes, similar to late Zodiac letters.

I'm sure they would be online. I've read books that included reprints of the letters.

He also wrote on a wall after one murder. It was washed away quickly due to concerns it could inflame the community. There was a reference to "jewes."

[BillyWildest]

The Whitechapel killer - who never did call himself "Jack the Ripper" - wrote perhaps only one letter - the Lusk card. All the other "genuine" ones were fabricated by a journalist (Tom Bulling was identified as the culprit, but it could have been any other reporter), as was the "Jack" moniker.

[RockDoctorLV]

@BillyWildest It is very interesting to note that "Zodiac" NEVER called himself the "Zodiac Killer." He did call himself a murderer, which is probably significant. The title "Zodiac Killer" was an invention of the press at the time of the killings.

[801drummer]

[youngeruk]

The movie has just come out here in the u.k,im glad i found this series before going to see it, you're views are very interesting. thank you for a most enlightening insight into the mind of the zodiac.

[efxdavid]

I'm so happy to hear from someone from the U.K.!

[AwsiDooger]

Thank you for continuing this excellent series.

One minor suggestion: In some of the segments, including this one, the volume needs to be higher.

[efxdavid]

Frankly, I'm not sure how to get the volume higher. I know that it is an issue and you can see I have the mic right in my face... I will keep trying though.

[stickyshooZ]

I will also be buying your book. You've sold me at this point. I really am enjoying your series and hope that you'll be able to catch a break soon!

[jdtherod]

Excellent series David. Keep up the good work, and I too bought the book. I hope they get this guy eventually!Thank You

[efxdavid]

Thanks for buying the book! I hope they get him, too! Both because he should not get away with it and because that is the only way I'll ever know how accurate my speculations have been.

[glock882]

Dr. Van Nuys, I understand you are (very) busy. I do enjoy what you are doing here. Please continue with the series. Your insite adds refreshing points to an old/modern story. I'm going to purchase your book. You sold me! Thank you.

[efxdavid]

Well, thank you! I'm glad you feel moved to buy the book. It's not going to make me wealthy but it is gratifying to know that people are reading it!
