Zodiac's Heartless 1970 Letter

     Source: Zodiac Unmasked

     As some day it may happen that a victim nust be found. I've got a little list. I've got a little list, of society offenders who might well be underground who would never be missed-who would never be missed. There is the pestulentual nucences who whrite for autographs, all people who have flabby hands and irritating laughs. All children who are up in dates and implore you with implatt. All people who are shaking hands shake hands like that, and all third persons who with unspoiling take thoes who insist. They'd none of them be missed. They'd none of them be missed. There's the banjo seranader and the others of his race and the piano orginast. I got him on the list. All people who eat pepermint and phomphit in your face, they would never be missed. They would never be missed. Ande the idiout who phraises with inthusatic tone of centuries but this and every country but his own. And the lady from the provences who dress like a guy who doesen't cry and the singurly abnorillthe girl who never kissed. I don't think she would be missed. I'm sure she wouldn't ne missed. And that nice impriest that is rather rife the judicial hummerest. I've got him on the list. All funny fellows, all commic men and clowns of private life. They'd none of them be missed. They'd none of them be missed. And uncompromising kind such as wachamacallit, thing in a bob, and like wise, well nevermind, and tut tut tut tut, and whatshisname, and you know who, but task of filling up the blanks I rather leave up to you. But it really doesn't matter whom you place upon the list, for none of them be missed, none of them be missed.

     Note: This letter has so many, many mistakes that it's almost impossible to read, much less type. Because of the writing, it seems like a true Zodiac letter and I have to think that he is writing like this on purpose. I wonder about drugs. Every sentence has either misspelling or very poor English. If he's as bright as they say he is then he is very, very clever. When he repeats, as he does, it seems as though he's using that time to think of something else to say. I can't tell if he reverses letters in words by mistake or on purpose.
