We explore Netflix’s new true-crime docuseries, This is the Zodiac Speaking (2024), to discuss whether Arthur Leigh Allen could be The Zodiac, though DNA (and other evidence) previously ruled him out as a suspect. We perform a language analysis on the first Zodiac letter and an accompanying envelope for visual clues and inconsistent patterns in his handwriting, as we try to pierce the mind of this elusive and notorious murderer.
