'His Name Was Arthur Leigh Allen' part 5

This be the last part, just so you know.
Sorry the colors are so funky, I don't know why that happened. If any of you guys do, let me know so I can try to fix it.

"The truth about the prime suspect in the Zodiac case from people who knew him and the police who investigated him."
-the DVD box

This is a series of interviews from the special features of the Director's Cut of the 2007 movie 'Zodiac' directed by David Fincher (based on the book by Robert Graysmith).

This is not my work, obviously

'Zodiac' is a Phoenix Pictures production, presented by Paramount Pictures and Warner Bros. Pictures.

The opinions expressed in these interviews are not necessarily those of Paramount Pictures, its parent companies, or its affiliates

Aw, who am I kidding? Don't sue me!

@sigurjong she's crazy

[BoxingGoodspeed]

@sigurjong I think in this context, she meant that Zodiac was not sadistic in the sense of killing for the purpose of inflicting prolonged pain, torture, and terror. Jeffrey Dahmer was probably the best example of a truly sadistic serial killer -- torturing victims and even eating body parts before the final act of murder. I think she means that for Zodiac, killing itself probably provided him less excitement than the publicity he received and the gamesmanship with police.

@sigurjong

Yeah, she obviously doesn't know what sadistic means.

(1) DNA Test The Cheney Guy Now! If Cheney is a match to the stamp Boom, its him or its Allen, or its both! (2) DNA Test "All" the stamps & envelopes, not just the "one" they did! (3) I read the SFPD does not want to do DNA on the stamps, "WHY"?

[sigurjong]

I don't believe Allen was the Zodiac, but that woman claimed the Zodiac wasn't sadistic. Didn't he brutally stab a couple of people? I don't know how you measure sadistic, but stabbing somebody several times sounds a little sadistic to me.

@astrolifter LOL..just playing around there tiger. Seriously, the idea that Allen was the killer was compelling offered in the the recent Zodiac movie, but the lack of physical evidence casts doubt. It just seems that the Police would have found something, at least a print. I think that Allen actually wanted to be considered a viable suspect, which explains some of his bizarre behavior to the Police.

F*ck off you imbecile.

@Soloman1001 your devious mouth on my member...

[smoku46]

dna was collected from all of the letters and stamps, not just from one stamp and one letter.

[Skindoggiedog]

@ruedydude - They found bomb parts exactly as indicated in the letters Z sent in about the bus bombing he threatened.

An eyewitness account from a man who was shot by Z who picked ALA's picture out definitively.

DNA from the stamp could've come from anyone. BOTH SIDES of the stamp were in the test. DNA could've gotten on there from any number of people.

Z was a cryptographer. Why WOULDN'T a cryptographer change his handwriting? Everyone knew it was one means to gauge likelihood of guilt.
