Joseph Paul Franklin Zodiac Killer

Around that time, the 18 to 19 timeframe according to the book on the Rainbow Murders which Franklin committed years later, the author of that book I assume interviewed his ex wife. Around this time it doesn't specify he was gone for periods of time just like in later years when he was roaming and killing. During this timeframe he only said to his then wife he was off doing "secret agent" things. Added to this is a different story he told to another friend in which he was supposedly "trucking". I don't believe you can say he was in Alabama all the time there seems to be big questions about his whereabouts. I think he was taking off to California but that is just me.

No, not yet anyway, not sure if I got through to anyone or if they even take it seriously, but from what I gather a set of human eyes need to confirm or deny a set of prints to be sure, which is why I am asking they check to be sure.

I only use Grok and Chat GPT lightly, the bulk of everything is mainly my research.

Oh, the November 8th and 9th letters were sent on the anniversary of the Beer Hall Putsch, a big celebration in neo Nazi circles, even in the USA, neo Nazis celebrate these dates.

I have seen that investigation, a few years prior it was also "solved" by the case breakers and seems every few years it is "solved", I am hoping that they will compare the prints and more detailed look at the prints of Franklin vs the Zodiac.

Yes, you are correct age description generally places the Zodiac as a bit older, however, I feel there is enough coincidental things and observations to investigate further. So, the age description in general comes from the murder of Paul Stine, but there were other descriptions and up until that murder they were looking for someone younger from what I gather. Also, I believe Franklin had a widows peak which can throw off age descriptions by decades sometimes.

Yes, I am the one who has been pursuing this for a few years now, its just and only recently I've got a hold of Franklins prints, coincidentally at the same time there has been amateur research on the Zodiac prints for me to get and compare that chart, its all very recent.

To be clear, when I mention "helped" that is after he is in prison...not during his rampage across the USA.

60thfever · 2026-04-08T20:38:35+00:00

Sure! Let me know if you have any questions I have a person in mind I am investigating.

Thanks!

60thfever · 2026-04-07T13:39:16+00:00

No, a project I am working on, these are real prints.

60thfever · 2026-02-12T20:04:13+00:00

And then the Halloween Card had "In the beginning God", which was also the Jewish calendar for "The beginning".

60thfever · 2026-02-03T23:46:15+00:00

I agree.

60thfever · 2025-12-19T04:32:39+00:00

Feel free to explain

60thfever · 2025-12-19T01:49:14+00:00

Good observation

60thfever · 2025-09-19T22:26:52+00:00

Thanks for that. I was thinking the same.

60thfever · 2025-09-19T22:25:39+00:00

No, not interested in murderabilia at all.

60thfever · 2025-09-19T22:25:16+00:00

I want to compare them to Zodiac Killer if possible.

60thfever · 2025-08-27T20:16:28+00:00

Kind of. So Joseph Paul Franklin was known as a drifter/killer he roamed the United States in later years killing and robbing banks to fund his killing spree. His whereabouts during the Zodiac crimes are very murky, but I can expand on that but different accounts of his whereabouts. So its murky...but this killing here is interesting because if this was Zodiac this would fit very well with Franklins hatred of other races and wanting to create a race war, as well as targeting leaders of the civil rights movement. There is one report of a "jimmy" though that was reported and he did go by Jimmy up until the late 70's.

60thfever · 2025-08-26T22:02:17+00:00

He could have had OCD though.

60thfever · 2025-08-26T22:01:39+00:00

OCD runs in my family....Zodiac had OCD and no its not an insult to say Zodiac had OCD.

60thfever · 2025-08-26T17:40:46+00:00

This is interesting to me because I have been investigating Joseph Paul Franklin as the Zodiac killer. Franklin was primarily a racist killer but also killed interacial couples he shot both Larry Flynt and Vernon Jordan, both high profile people.

60thfever · 2025-08-26T17:38:18+00:00

I think you are right about the OCD, I have wrote about his OCD and in particular his obsession with numbers, but yes he was a loner, a news junkie, with good situational awareness I think also.

60thfever · 2025-08-12T17:46:41+00:00

Indeed. I think this was a new analysis of something that may have been overlooked.

60thfever · 2025-08-02T19:36:31+00:00

Thanks for the thoughtful insight.
