I heard of Ted Cruz and the Zodiac but not Rafael. Ted Cruz was born in 1970, so obviously, he couldn't be The Zodiac. But his father, Rafael, is the spitting image of the artist's sketch of the Zodiac killer and he was in California at the time The Zodiac was active. Also, like his son, Rafael Cruz is a weirdo.

According to this site, they were in Canada at the time. www.google.ca/amp/s/www.macleans.ca/politics/washington/ted-cruz-made-in-canada/amp/I’m guessing the people doing the familial DNA have to do the match with the help of a good suspect list although I read they were able to narrow the field down to two brothers in one case with this method. Nobody should be left out for less than solid reasons. Even then they probably can’t get the suspect’s DNA because he’s probably dead so there might be no announcement of the results.

Just because a person's place of residence is Canada, or wherever, doesn't mean he can't travel to other locations. Rafael Cruz had children by his first wife and they lived in California. He has a shady past and outright lied about his credentials as a minister. Where he was and what he did after abandoning his own country when things got tough, nobody really knows. I have no respect for people who leave their country of birth in times of trouble. They're not like the brave European settlers who came to America, a wild new world where they had to work hard to survive or die trying, they're like rats fleeing a sinking ship. He probably had something to do with the Kennedy assassination as well. Why else was he hanging out with Lee Harvey Oswald on a street corner in New Orleans?

I have a hard time believing the Zodiac was a drifter. Technically speaking, the Zodiac might not profile very differently from the Unabomber who lived in a shack in the woods.

Building bombs and sending them through the mail can be done from just about anywhere. It would be a lot more difficult for a shack-dweller to drive around killing people without getting caught. For one thing, when something happens, weirdos living in shacks are at the top of everyone's suspect list. But, if someone -- like Rafael Cruz -- didn't live in the area, but visited only occasionally, he'd never be suspected.

A comparison to one of the artists sketches of the Zodiac. I added the glasses. I just did a little checking and didn't find a single serial killer with a wide mouth. There must be some, but none that I found had a wide mouth like that.

As for living in a shack, it has its advantages. You don’t have to keep any guns or evidence there. You could keep it in the woods and a search warrant would be useless. I did have the image of the Zodiac in a basement with a Royal typewriter but I don’t think that’s based on any definitive evidence. One was the "concerned citizen" letter which gave the correct key to solving the code, assuming the Zodiac was pulling a prank after he heard his code was solved. That's the typed letter with the "dropped letter a".

There were some letters to the Editor after George Edward Gill died but I think there could have been some cherry picking there. There were hundreds of letters to the papers just like there were Ripper letters. Almost all of them were hoaxes but that doesn't stop people from cherry picking from them. The same goes for the Zodiac Killer. Is there real evidence he stopped killing but kept on writing letters? We got 8 letters in 1969, 6 in 1970, 4 in 1971 ending in March. There were no possible letters we know of in 1972 or 1973. Then a bunch in 74 and one in 78. www.zodiackiller.com/Letters.htmlDid something happen to the Zodiac Killer in 1971 or 1972? George Edward Gill died November 13, 1972.

Then a bunch in 74 and one in 78. Here's evidence there was a hoaxer in 74 and 78. He left matching DNA from saliva on the letters, literally “licking” the letters which the Zodiac didn’t do in any of the authenticateded letters. That eliminates one "Mikado" letter (the Exorcist letter), but there was still the Little List Letter which shows Zodiac was a Mikado fan, one more reason to say he's probably middle aged. And he disappears around 1971/2.

And he disappears around 1971/2. The last confirmed Zodiac killing was in October 1969. That year, Rafael Cruz got a job at an oil company, met and married his second wife and they relocated to Calgary, Alberta, where Ted was born in December 1970. When a man has a job that keeps him busy and a new wife, he doesn't have time to fly a thousand miles to murder people.
BTW, what possessed you to choose that freaking dove as your avatar?
