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?

[801drummer]

ive watched all the videos. i know more about the case now. i know you're busy but i'll be checking back for more videos. thank you for posting these

[efxdavid]

I'm determined to keep'm coming! With such loyal viewers and so much encouragement, how can I stop?

[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.!

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.

@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??

[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?

[faffaflunkie]

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

@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.

[gertomaniac]

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

[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.

[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.
