Zodiac: 340 Cipher


                One of the ciphers by the Zodiac Killer, known as the 340 Cipher, uses a reference of a Japanese oriented comedy play, The Mikado, to help decode the message. Through reference to the play, the folding fans that each of the main character holds is noted as they have a look similar to a protractor. This is a good clue because all of the Zodiac’s ciphers have been noted to have references to radians in all of them.  This has pointed detectives to fold the cipher like a Japanese folding fan and gave interesting results.  When correctly folded the coded message of “Her Pi God. Body By Old Book By Red Loop Foot (12”). Go To It OK.” This could be the location to find one of his victims “or possibly it means that the Zodiac ties a “Red Loop” around the ankles of one of his victims and is telling police that he was responsible for the crime” (opordanalytical).
