"The Zodiac Killer was my dad"

Deborah Perez, a 47-year-old real estate agent in Orange County, said she accompanied her father on at least two of the Zodiac slayings, wrote the killer's letter to San Francisco attorney Melvin Belli, and has a pair of glasses she said her father snatched as a trophy from his last known victim.

Her dad's name: Guy Ward Hendrickson, a carpenter living in Southern California in 1968 and 1969, when the Zodiac killed his five known victims before seemingly dropping from the face of the earth. Hendrickson has been dead for 26 years, Perez said.

"I was a child and just thought I was helping my father," Perez said at a press conference outside The Chronicle's Mission Street headquarters, where about 30 reporters and 20 Zodiac buffs competed to make their questions heard over the roar of each other and city traffic.

"Guilty! Guilty!" some of the buffs screamed as Perez spoke. "Bull—! Bull—!" screamed another.

One of the most compelling pieces of evidence Perez mentioned was a pair of brown, horn-rimmed eyeglasses she says her father took from Paul Stine, a cabbie shot on Oct. 11, 1969, in San Francisco. She said she is turning them over to the San Francisco Police Department, and that if the prescription fits Stine's or is linked to the Zodiac in any other way - such as through a DNA match - it will help prove her case. According to accounts of the crime, Stine's body was missing his eyeglasses when he was found.

She also said she hopes authorities can find DNA on the stamps of letters that the Zodiac sent and match them to herself or her father.
This is some crazy stuff.

So she just woke up one day and decided, "Well, I guess I'll admit I was an accessory to murder"?

Yeah thats what I immediately thought Richard - she's forty frikkin seven - and her dad's been dead for twenty six years - what the hell has taken so long to go public exactly?

ETA: Okay this simply isn;t adding up:

Quote:
Of particular interest will be the letter written in December 1969 to Belli, who died in 1996. The letter, filled with erratic punctuation and misspellings, begins, "Dear Melvin This is the Zodiac speaking I wish you a happy Christmass. ... please help me."

Perez said she wrote the letter at age 7 in an effort to get help for her father.
She did it to get help for her father? I thought she didn't understand what he was doing and just thought she was helping him, not getting help for him?

This smacks of either bullshit or she herself is batshit looney like her dad - or both.

It's such bullshit, and has already been debunked.

Privately, some investigators wondered if the timing of Perez's announcement had something to do with a documentary on her story that she is hoping to finish soon.

Nah, that's crazy talk!

Should I be pissed off that this attention whore is attaching her name to someone else's killing spree? Get off your lazy ass and kill your own victims, the way George Washington did.

Richard Ramirez had dozens of women that were interested in him after hearing about his killings, and one even married him in prison. They get more insane.

From Errol Morris' First Person, which you all should netflix immediately:

Quote:
Sondra London had lost contact with her high school sweetheart, Gerald. The years had passed and she was in an unhappy marriage and a dead end job writing word processing manuals. But Gerald was in the newspaper — as the suspected killer of forty women. There always had been something about Gerald Schaefer. They rekindled their affair.

Sondra and Gerald eventually broke up for good. But there's a new man in her life, Danny Rollins — the Gainesville Murderer. They're engaged.

Louis CK said something great about how guys fuck things up but girls are fucked up.

It's a generalization of course but it's so true. Men with severe emotional problems tend to project their anger outward more and break shit or become a serial killer or a rapist or wife beater or master of getting into drunken bar fights or whatever.

While women with severe emotional problems tend to project their feelings inward and engage in more self-destructive behaviour. They become depressive cutters or suicidal or stay in abusive relationships or BECOME ATTRACTED TO FUCKING SERIAL KILLERS. It's pretty mystifying to see.

Women who write letters to guys in prison are no different than that lady who swam into the polar bear tank and got a little bit eaten, the underlying motivation is exactly the same.

"A little bit eaten" cracked me the hell up.

Fatema Saira Rehman who married Charles "the most violent prisoner in Britain" Bronson got two books out of her short marriage.

As the Joker once said, "Hubba, hubba, hubba! Money, money, money! Who do you trust?"

They're not as stupid as you would think.

She should have waited till Clint Eastwood kicked the bucket.
