The next episode of the ZODIAC: A TO Z podcast features an expanded look at the still-unsolved murder of Cheri Jo Bates and the origins of the so-called "Riverside connection" to the Zodiac. A handwriting expert concluded that writings in the Riverside case, including letters and a poem written on a desk, were the work of the Zodiac. Other experts questioned that conclusion, and the Bates case remains a controversial chapter in the Zodiac story.
