I dunnoooo ... Both Hen(d)ricksons are very square of, err, jaw.
Call me a cynic, but I’m not buying this.
I don't know the Guy. No relation. Last name not even spelled the same.
Sure. And my dad was the 2nd gunman on the Grassy Knoll.
‘Not the Guy Ward Hendrickson I knew.’
Exactly why in all cases great and small the cops keep details to themselves that no outsider would know. I suspect that they can figure this one out pretty quick - either she knows things that no one else can know or as others have said it’s BS. OK she was only 7 and not the killer but around the killer but still.

I thought there was a man who claimed his father was the Zodiac killer. He seemed to have a lot of evidence, including the mask the killer wore which he found hidden in a stereo amplifier.
The family that slays together, stays together.
DNA from the envelopes, which failed to match to a suspect and his accuser, might bear this out.
If so ...
I don’t want to “search the archives” tell us what else it said.
Seems to me her story shouldn’t be too hard to prove or disprove, if the police think it’s worth taking seriously. Fingerprints from the envelope (and maybe DNA, but that’s iffy after all this time and for trace samples). Handwriting: track down any school she attended around the same time and for a few years after, and interview teachers and administrators who might be able to put their hands on a writing sample. Lots of teachers save stuff. If there’s a childhood handwriting match, I’d believe her.
Too weird, the story at the excerpt has changed since I posted it. I’m used to that happening with the AP, but not a local story.
If anyone hasn’t seen the recent film Zodiac please do. It’s one of the best American movies in years!
"Perez spoke at today's press conference. Here are just a few of her wild claims.
During the shooting deaths, he told her the gun shots were firecrackers. She stamped the envelopes containing the cryptic letters sent out to local media.
She embroidered the mask he wore while committing his notorious acts.
During a routine police stop, he stuck his gun in the back of her pants. This happened just after the 4th of July killings.
She also said he killed between 30 and 40 people.
He lived in Orange County. Of course.
He apologized on his deathbed.
The murders seemed to be a "special activity" between her and her dad.
Allegedly.
But here's the rub, Perez says she wrote some of the letters herself and that she saw a composite on America's Most Wanted in 2007 of her father as the Zodiac Killer, and began to remember it all. So, you know, she may be delusional in addition to being sanity-estranged. (However, according to attorney Kevin McLean, the man who lead this most recent investigation, "Everyone is going to say she is crazy, but we had psychologists examine Ms. Perez." Word is, though, that McLean isn't a beacon of mental clarity himself.)
For many years, people fingered Arthur Leigh Allen, a child molester from Vallejo who died in 1992, as the Zodiac Killer."
Freaky. High weirdness for Walpurgisnacht
