After more than fifty years, a team of amateur coders managed to decipher one of the mysteries of one of America’s best-known serial killers, a message called Cipher 340, which the Zodiac sent to the editorial office of the San Francisco Chronlicle in 1969. .

The Zodiac killer has been shown to have killed five people in California in the 1960s, but presumably committed at least thirty more murders. His case has not been solved since then, to this day they do not know who he was. At the time of the murders, he sent several letters to the police and various newspapers, in which he wrote about his murders and criticized the investigation. He wrote four of the letters in different code languages.

The first encrypted message was decrypted in 1969 by a school teacher and his wife. He said: “I like to kill people because it is much fun than hunting animals in the forest because man is more dangerous than any animal. Killing is such an incredible experience, even more pleasant than being with a girl, it is the best part if I die in paradise, I will be reborn and everyone I kill will be my slaves I will not tell you my name because you will try to stop me or prevent me from gathering more servants to To die. ”. The last 18 letters of the message have yet to be deciphered.

The decryption of the message, called Cipher 340, has now been put together by a team of Belgian, Australian and American coders into a computer program. One of them, David Oranchak, has been dealing with puzzles of the Zodiac since 2006. According to his explanation, the killer wrote:

“I hope you really enjoy trying to catch me. I wasn’t on the TV show that mentioned one thing about me. I’m not afraid of the gas chamber because it sends me to paradise asap and I have enough slaves already.” of death but I am not afraid because I know that my new life will be easy in the paradise of death “

The original solution looks like this:

I HOPE YOU’RE HAVING A LOT OF FUN TRYING TO CATCH ME THAT IT WASN’T ME ON THE TELEVISION SHOW THAT TELLS ME A POINT ABOUT ME I AM NOT AFRAID OF THE GAS CHAMBER BECAUSE IT WILL SEND ME TO PARADICE EVERYTHING BEFORE BECAUSE NOW I HAVE A SUFFICIENT SLAVE FOR ME NOW ALL OTHERS HAVE NOTHING WHEN THEY ARRIVE TO THE PARADICE SO THEY ARE AFRAID OF DEATH I AM NOT AFRAID BECAUSE I KNOW MY NEW LIFE IS LIFE IT WILL BE EASY IN PARADICE DEATH

A video was also made on how to crack the code:
