A cipher from San Francisco’s notorious “Zodiac Killer” of the 1960s and '70s apparently has been solved after 51 years. “The FBI is aware that a cipher attributed to the Zodiac Killer was recently solved by private citizens,” FBI San Francisco spokesman Cameron Rogers Polan said in a statement to Fox News. This is the real deal.”The Zodiac Killer was responsible for five murders in the San Francisco area in 1968 and 1969. Unlike other serial killers, the Zodiac Killer taunted police with enigmatic ciphers and bizarre letters to the newspaper. Months earlier the paper received a cipher from the Zodiac Killer that had 408 characters.
