Codebreakers Finally Crack The Zodiac Killer's Diabolical Cipher After 50 Years

A team of cryptography enthusiasts announced Friday they had successfully cracked one of the coded messages sent over 50 years ago by the "Zodiac Killer," who terrorized northern California in the late 1960s and remains unidentified.

The message was sent in November 1969 to the San Francisco Chronicle newspaper by the alleged serial killer, its code consisting of a series of cryptic letters and symbols.

Sleuths hoped the coded message contained the identity of the killer, who committed at least five murders in 1968 and 1969 but claimed 37 in total and inspired other serial killers.

According to the trio said to have broken the code, the message includes boasts and defiance of authorities without any real clues on motive or identity.

It includes the message: "I hope you are having lots of fun in trying to catch me... I am not afraid of the gas chamber because it will send me to paradice (sic) all the sooner because I now have enough slaves to work for me."

It took several computer programs and years of work for David Oranchak, a 46-year-old American web designer, to decipher the complex code he started working on in 2006.

He was helped by Sam Blake, an Australian mathematician, and Jarl Van Eykcke, a Belgian logistician, Oranchak told the San Francisco Chronicle, which confirmed the discovery with the FBI, the federal agency in charge of the investigation.
