A death record for Weill notes that he was the son of a man named Sam Weill-you’ll recall “Sam” as being the name Eric asked to be called while masquerading as the Zodiac on Jim Dunbar’s television show. The Zodiac vanished into quiet oblivion sometime in the mid-1970s and Weill committed suicide in 2006. Luckily, neither Eric Weill nor the Zodiac ever made good on their shared threat to murder school children. Weill had also photographed The Beatles’ final live performance before a paying audience-their famous August 1966 Candlestick Park concert-and was now apparently obsessed with the Zodiac Killer, along with lawyer to the stars, attorney Melvin Belli, who was working with the Rolling Stones at the time. Shortly after 7 AM, the man claiming to be Zodiac called in, and asked to called “Sam.” While they were somewhat skeptical that this caller was indeed the Zodiac Killer, the San Francisco Police were eager to set up this unconventional television broadcast in the hopes that a call could be traced to rule out or confirm this individual as a legitimate suspect, as the Zodiac had struck in their city only two weeks prior, murdering cab driver Paul Stine in cold blood before fleeing into the night. Before hanging up, the self-professed “Zodiac” said he would settle for Melvin Belli if Bailey could not be reached.Īcting fast, the police arranged for Jim Dunbar, the host of KGO-TV’s, AM San Francisco, to have Melvin Belli join him on the air that morning, as Bailey was 3,000 miles away in Boston at the time. The caller told the operator that he wanted Bailey to appear on a local television talk show so that he could call in and chat with Bailey. Shortly after 2 AM on the morning of October 22, 1969, a man claiming to be the Zodiac Killer called the Oakland, California Police Department, demanding to speak with famed attorney F. June & Jennifer Gibbons (The Silent Twins).
