The STRANGE Case of the Zodiac Killer | 57 Years Unsolved (1968–1969)

For fifty-one years, a message sat in plain sight — 340 symbols that the FBI and thousands of amateur codebreakers could not crack. The man who wrote them called himself the Zodiac. Between December 1968 and October 1969, he terrorized Northern California, mailed taunting letters to the newspapers, and signed them all with a circle cut by a cross. He was never caught. In December 2020, three private citizens finally broke the cipher — and the FBI confirmed it. The message gave no name. No confession. Just the same mocking voice, certain he would never be found. He was right. This is the story of the Zodiac Killer: the attacks, the letters, the 408 and the 340, the night officers spoke to the killer and let him walk away, and the case file that remains open to this day. 🔔 Subscribe to Crimson Eye Mysteries for a new strange case every week. #unsolvedmystery #truecrime #zodiackiller
