Zodiac at Stanford? New Book Offers Startling DiscoveriesHas evidence been found that the Zodiac Killer was on the Stanford University campus in 1969 and 1971 ? Or is it just "One F of a Coincidence?" Are there reasonable explanations for discoveries in issues of the Stanford Daily and Stanford Chaparral? Or is the entire Zodiac case about to be upended? Could these revelations shed light on the remaining cold case murders at Stanford, and change our conceptions of other cases and mysterious deaths of that era?And will a single out-of-character moment of anger 30 years ago be the one mistake that leads to the solving of the Zodiac case?These are questions asked by author James Bigtwin in his book "The Only Time Richard Got Angry At Me," an account of his multi-year odyssey that began when he learned his past acquaintance, Richard Gaikowski, had been accused of being the Zodiac Killer. While his memories gave him pause, Bigtwin believed he had nothing to add that could help solve the cold case. But while researching for the 125th anniversary of the Stanford Chaparral, Bigtwin made discoveries in the archives of the Chaparral and Stanford Daily that literally blew his mind. Zodiac research found him, and not only did he learn that the Zodiac may have been at Stanford, his discoveries pointed to the possible identity of the killer, his past acquaintance, Richard Gaikowski.A crazy hunch led to an incredible discovery--with the Missing Link secretly hidden in the Chaparral commemorative book, The Chappie - 125 Years of Issues. The potential Zodiac clue is on page 394 of that book, in a joke reference to a Harry Potter scene.In addition, potential new connections between the Zodiac Killer and the Gilbert and Sullivan operetta The Mikado will be explored."There are only a few possibilities for the Zodiac-Mikado things I found," said Bigtwin . "These should not exist, could not exist, without it being the work of the perpetrator. If it's not, it is the most incredible string of coincidences that say otherwise."Zodiac is widely considered to be the top remaining cold case serial murderer of the 20th Century, with the killer eluding investigators now for more than 50 years.
