Who was the
individual known as "Sandy" in 1963?
Preliminary Report on
Project MK-ZODIAC
Speculation Based Upon
the Story of "Sandy"
"Sandy" is featured in this
report as hypothetically being the individual who later became known as
the Zodiac.
Researchers of the Zodiac
case may recognize the similarities between the descriptions of "Sandy"
(1963) and the Zodiac (1969).
In the article in the San
Francisco Chronicle on October 12, 1969, about the murder of Paul Stine
by someone who was later established to be the Zodiac, the suspect was
about 40 years old, 170 pounds, with a blond crewcut, and wearing
glasses.

It is interesting that this
suspect was described as having blond hair and wearing glasses, which
does correspond with the description for "Sandy".
However, the age of this
suspect does not match the estimated age of "Sandy" because, if "Sandy"
was about 17 to 18 years old in 1963, then "Sandy" would have been
about 23 to 24 years old in 1969 (not about 40).
The Zodiac claimed "I look
like the description passed out only when I do my thing, the rest of
the time I look entirle different. I shall not tell you what my descise
consists of when I kill."

An unidentified man with
blond hair may have been associated with Donna Ann Lass, who is
considered a possible victim of the Zodiac.
There was a report that
someone saw Lass "walking with a young, blonde man" around the time
that she became missing.

It may or may not be
significant that Lass had lived in Santa Barbara (circa 1967 to 1969)
before she moved to San Francisco (circa 1969 to 1970).
Lass had moved to South
Lake Tahoe at the time of her disappearance in 1970.

The nickname "Sandy" may be
a shortened version of this suspect's real name (first name, middle
name, or last name).
It is possible that the
nickname "Sandy" was actually the name of someone who this suspect knew.
It is open to imagination
if the nickname "Sandy" was inspired by sandy blond hair, sandy
beaches, Sandy Koufax (a popular baseball player in 1963), or something
else.

For those who are
suspicious that Theodore Kaczynski was the Zodiac, there are several
interesting correlations.
For example, the letters in
"SANDY" may be derived from the letters in "THEODORE KACZYNSKI" (as it
has been previously observed about the letters in "ZODIAC").
Kaczynski would have been
close to the age of "Sandy". Theodore was 21 years old in June of 1963
(born May 22, 1942, in Chicago, Illinois). "Sandy" was described as
about 17 to 18 years old (about three or four years younger than
Kaczynski).
According to his
application for a driver´s license, Kaczynski had blue eyes. "Sandy"
was described as having blue eyes.

There is a photo of a young
Kaczynski (age 9) in 1952 wearing a similar shirt to the one "Sandy"
was wearing. Of course, that may only be evidence that such a shirt was
popular during the 1950´s and 1960´s.
However, it must also be
stated that there are important discrepancies between Kaczynski and
"Sandy".
Kaczynski´s hair would
probably have been described as brown (not blond). "Sandy" was clearly
described as having blond hair.
Kaczynski is not known to
have smoked. "Sandy" smoked.
Also, there is no known
evidence that Kaczynski was in California in 1963.
Kaczynski is being used
here as an example because Kaczynski is someone who has previously been
named as a suspect of being the Zodiac.
According to the FBI and
the San Francisco Police Department, Kaczynski has been cleared of
being the Zodiac.
It is not uncommon in a
criminal investigation to find coincidences which suggest that an
innocent person may be connected to a crime.
The story of "Sandy"
mentions other suspects based upon incriminating circumstances who were
eventually cleared by the investigators.
Therefore, it is certainly
possible that someone who is suspected of being the Zodiac also would
have matched the description of "Sandy" in June of 1963.
