TO KILL SOMETHING GIVES ME THE MOST THRILLING EXPERENCE
The Zodiac Killer clearly indicates that hedonistic thrill-seeking is at least one of his motivations. Most probably, the adrenaline rush that he experiences when he commits his crimes give him a powerful sensation. Interestingly, the Zodiac uses the word “SOMETHING” instead of “SOMEBODY”, for human beings and animals alike, which suggests that he considered his victims as nothing more than animals.
IT IS EVEN BETTER THAN GETTING YOUR ROCKS OFF WITH A GIRL
With, “getting your rocks off with a girl”, the Zodiac Killer uses an explicit sexual slang metaphor for “having an orgasm”, which could indicate a direct or latent sexual association of violence and sexual arousal. Apparently, killing gives the Zodiac an orgasmic or pseudo-orgasmic experience. The cruelty of his acts excites him sexually.
THE BEST PART OF IT IS THAT WHEN I DIE I WILL BE REBORN IN PARADICE
We consider the Zodiac Killer’s concept of being “REBORN IN PARADICE” as significant. This clearly points into a religious or pseudo-religious direction. In connection with his acts, this could mean that the Zodiac believed that he was on a religious mission, a holy war. He wishes to cause severe destruction before he dies, with rebirth in paradise as his reward.
AND ALL THE I HAVE KILLED WILL BECOME MY SLAVES
Apparently, the Zodiac Killer believes that as extra reward, those that he killed would become his slaves to serve him in his afterlife. From the psychological perspective, we consider the Zodiac’s afterlife slave concept as his way to take full and permanent possession of his victims.
