<description>&lt;div&gt;Despite countless investigations and numerous suspects over the years, the identity of the Zodiac Killer remains a mystery to this day. But what would it take to try this case in modern times? In order to build a strong case, new looks at Zodiac would need to start with a deep dive back into the original evidence, including potential DNA samples, fingerprints, and any other forensic evidence that might have been overlooked in the past - and that’s what we’re trying to do here. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
In recent years, one suspect has started to attract the attention of a few modern day investigators, and that attention is beginning to shift the focus back to a man that holds a very interesting position in the case as we’ve come to know it.  &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Tonight, we’re going to unpack a story that might be a little head scratching at first, but as you’ll hear, the theory we’re about to put forth, has roots that run very deep into Zodiac mythology. In fact, it has a lot to do with a suspect that, if you’re familiar at all with this case, you’ll know. But there's a twist to this story - one that plays right into the Zodiac’s potential motives by playing directly to the ego that seemed to be at the center for every decision he ever made. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
When we started our look at this case, I really didn’t know where it would take us. After hearing what you’ll hear tonight, I’m more convinced than ever that we have identified the Zodiac killer. Or maybe I &lt;em&gt;should say&lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Zodiac killers. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Welcome back to Vanished. This is a trial by jury for Don Cheney and Arthur Leigh Allen. &lt;br&gt;
