Codebreaker: Hemp Inc solves industrial hemp cipher.

Code-breakers have cracked a 340-character cipher 51 years after it was purportedly sent to the San Francisco Chronicle by the so-called Zodiac Killer, the FBI has confirmed. The killer, who was never caught, murdered five people in stabbings and shootings that terrorised the San Francisco Bay area in the late 1960s. The message was one of several sent to newspapers during the killing spree. The code was solved by three people from the US, Belgium and Australia. “I hope you are having lots of fun in trying to catch me. I am not afraid of the gas chamber because it will send me to paradice (sic) all the sooner because I now have enough slaves to work for me,” the decrypted message reads, without throwing any light on the killer’s identity.

In a video posted on YouTube, Virginia web-designer David Oranchak says he cracked the cipher along with Australian applied mathematician Sam Blake and Belgian Jarl Van Eycke, a warehouse manager and code-breaking software engineer. The message, which Mr Oranchak described as “more of the same attention-seeking junk from Zodiac”, consists of rows of capital letters and symbols. The code-breaking team, who used human ingenuity and software to decipher the message, dedicated their efforts to the killer’s victims and their relatives. Confirming the code-breaking achievement, the FBI said it continued to seek justice for those killed.
