Sariko Kagame is an ordinary woman who lives an ordinary life. Well kinda. She works at the IUC which stands for Investigators of Unsolved Crimes. She receives cases that have been unsolved or have went "cold". The Redhead Murders? Yep she solved it...
"I honestly have no idea what to say after seeing that..." Dylan says
"Dick Van Dyke would be the last person I would have suspected of being the Zodiac... I mean, I've heard of... Wait... I just remembered a suspect! His name is... Arthur Leigh Allen!"
"Arthur Leigh Allen? Never heard of him before..."
"People who have researched the Zodiac case before know about him. He's basically one of the most known Zodiac suspects ever."
"Whoa..."
"Yeah. But they're still not sure if he's the one. To be honest, I don't even know... I mean he doesn't even match the sketches of the Zodiac!"
"How does this guy even look?" Dylan asks
In response to his question, I type Arthur Leigh Allen's name in the google search bar. Several pictures pop up but I only click on one.

I scoot over a bit to let Dylan see the picture. After that, I go and search "zodiac killer sketch". I find the image I'm looking for and show it to Dylan.

"Your right. Allen doesn't match the sketch."
"Yeah." I say "I'm gonna search for other possible suspects."
After a while, I start to accumulate more information and find out about more people suspected of being the Zodiac. The list,including the ones from earlier, so far are:
Dick Van Dyke- There's little evidence. In the article by the onion it seemed that he knew what he was talking about though. There's a possibility that this was just some weird attempt at trying to make up something funny. The Onion may or may not be a satirical website...
Arthur Leigh Allen- He apparently had the same type of typewriter that the Zodiac had. A survivor, Micheal Mageau, identified Allen as the one who shot him and killed Ferrin, his girlfriend at the time. On the day that he supposedly said he was going to Lake Berryessa, a murder occurred. He had a knife that could have been used to commit some of murders. (The Zodiac didn't only use a knife. He also used a gun.) Allen said he was going to kill "a cabbie". A day later "a cabbie" (Paul Stine) was killed.
Lawrence Kane- Darlene Ferrin's sister said that Kane was the one who was bothering and harassing Darlene. Kathleen Johns also identified Kane as the man who had kidnapped her and her baby girl. It's also said that Kane had gotten rid of a car. That could have been the one used to kidnap Johns and her baby.
Jack Tarrance- A knife was said to have been found that matched the wounds that Cheri Jo Bates had. It's also said that he had a hoodie that the Zodiac Killer wore. He's said to resemble sketches of the Zodiac. Tarrance has said some weird things according to some of the people around him. He's supposedly said "If you knew who I was you wouldn't like me very much." and "I've stabbed so many people I've lost count." and "You haven't been hunting until you hunt people."
Rick Marshall- He happened to live close to scene of the Cheri Jo Bates murder. It's also said that he lived close to the scene of Paul Stine's murder.
Theodore "Ted" Kaczynski- He could have been in San Francisco during the murders. He's also known for being an expert when it comes to bombs. (The Zodiac made that diagram of the bomb he said he would plant but he never did it.) He has a habit of writing letters to the press after doing criminal acts.
Bruce Davis- He was in San Francisco in the 1960's. His handwriting doesn't match the Zodiac's and a 1970 report says that all male members of the Charles Manson family have been eliminated as suspects in the case. His appearance at the time of crimes doesn't match the Zodiac's either.
Charles Clifton Collins- According to a his son ,William Collins, his handwriting matches the Zodiac's. It's also said that he resembles the sketches of the Zodiac. His shoe size is also said to be same as the killer's. He happened to live in San Francisco during the time of the murders. His initials, CCC, was found on one of the letters that the Zodiac sent.
Louie Myers- It's said that Myers went to same high school as David Faraday and Betty Lou Jensen. He could have worked at the same restaurant that Darlene Ferrin worked at. When Myers was stationed overseas with the military, the Zodiac letters supposedly stopped.
George Russell Tucker- It's said that Tucker used to regularly go to the same restaurant the Darlene Ferrin worked at and that his car was around her residence before the time of her murder. Graffiti marks that could the same cryptic symbols that the Zodiac used in his letters were near Tuckers house and that his name is in one of the cryptograms that the Zodiac sent. If he were the Zodiac Killer then his motive could be revenge. His wife cheated on him. This could be a motive because some of his first reported killings were of couples. David Faraday and Betty Lou Jenson, Bryan Hartnell and Cecilia Shepard, and Darlene Ferrin and Micheal Mageau were all couples at the time but the Zodiac did not succeed in killing all of them.
Earl Van Best- He resembles a sketch of the Zodiac. Gary Stewart is the son of Van Best and he wrote a book saying how his father was the Zodiac.
Joseph Newton Chandler III- In 2002, a john doe was found dead in Eastlake, Ohio. The man they found wasn't Joseph Newton Chandler III. The man they found had taken the identity of a little boy who had died at age 8. He may be a fugitive. Not much is known about him but people do suspect that he could be the Zodiac Killer. It's certainly possible.
