Forgot how I first heard about this woman and exactly when this article is from, but she was from Vallejo, and found shot repeatedly on the beach. No apparent motive.

Some interesting Zodiac similarities here:

* Attacked on a beach (like confirmed Zodiac victims Hartnell & Shepard, and possible Zodiac victims Domingos & Edwards, not to mention the Jenner Beach murders)

* Shot repeatedly, no motive

*Skindiver like zodiac suspect Arthur Leigh Allen

* Lived in Vallejo

Extremely interesting that she was the same age as Allen and attended High School with him. I wonder who the mystery suitor was?

The confirmed Zodiac attacks included a .22 pistol, and two different models of 9mm pistols. A .32 caliber was never used by Z (that we know of). But if he was a gun nut, who knows how many guns he had

I forget what year she was killed. But I did find a BARBARA J. PARKIN killed on 12/8/67, but her death county is listed as MARIN COUNTY. Not being from CA, was she found in Marin county based on the articles above?

Interesting, she was shot 9 times, as was possible Z victim Linda Edwards. Funny, while looking for info on Parkin, I found a news article from 3/22/72 about an unidentified woman found near the Oakland Waterfront. She had been shot 9 times in the back too. I will see if I can find anymore on that victim.

This is all I could find:

Yep another nurse as well, how many nurses have we here. For arguments sake compared to waitresses like Darlene. Too many of these women were in nursing,if this had been policewomen or all women that worked in a bank I would feel the same way. Something fishy about this.

PostSubject: nurse's   Barbara Jane Parkin EmptySun May 02, 2010 3:42 am

I didn't read about the ones I was told about in the late 80's in Oakland / Alameda county and the city of Alameda.
But while I was working in Oakland, a nurse who use to come in with her husband ,told me that there had been many nurse's missing from that area .

I don't want to sound redundant, but I have a news paper article that came out in the San Pablo news paper, back in the early 60's.( San Pablo is just south of Vallejo)
It was about me and my work as a "libation nurse". I would like to find the person who wrote that about me ,and a few other restaurants in the area. It didn't show the reporters name, but that was the first and last time that I was ever called a "libation nurse".
Could the Z have been that writer ? I don't know, but he had a lot of nice things to say about me ,unlike what the Z would write I think, except for the words Libation nurse.

Post that article up if you can Sandy. It wasn't Tuckers wife you were talking to was it, behind the Creature I find ALA's pal Tucker interesting. His wife was a nurse and was working in Oakland, remember it was supposedly an Oakland Hospital that the 'Sam' phone call to Belli came from. I'll need to read Unmasked again but he also has ties to Berkley and used to go Scuba diving with ALA. I've always found him much more interesting than Cheney as a possible double act he also supplied more info than Cheney to begin with and actually owned a brown corvair.

About 30 miles up the coast Az. McClures beach is on a very remote peninsula, I rarely see anyone else when I hike out there.

What puts me off as it being a Z crime is it's prior to December 1968, when Z told us he commenced his "Collection of Slavers for Afterlife" and began his body count. Could of been lying, don't know why for the boastful Z.

Could have been lying, or didnt want to draw attention to himself for some reason regarding these earlier crimes. Then again, maybe he created this "character" after the 12/20/68 murders, as he didnt initially write regarding the LHR crimes either.

Solar, The hospital was in Napa where those phone calls to Belli were made. A call was made to "Oakland" PD telling them he wanted to call Belli.That might be why you thought it was a Oakland hospital.
I don't remember the nurse's name who told me about all of the missing nurse's, she lived in Crocket , I remember that.

The day Zamantha and I were looking for these articles and dating them, I made a mistake and wrote 1979 instead of 67 , sorry for any confusion. We were looking at many victims of crime that day, and we became tired after so many hours.
Zam is the one who scans everything ,so for the article about me the "Libation nurse", she will be the one to do that when she has more time.

Interesting Morf, That this was on the 2 yr anniversary of Kathleen Johns . The number 9 is a number that Z would use as a clue, Darlene being shot 9 times with a 9 mil.

Barbara Parkin's police investigation reported 10 shots at first and then 8 shots, so I am unsure of just how many there were ? But for sure a over kill, like z.

The Parkin case has Zodiac's prints all over it in my opinion. A senseless shooting, no motive, no rape/robbery, etc in the SF bay area (along the water dont forget), and add the fact she was from Vallejo...pretty interesting.

Also Sandy, regarding the woman found near the Oakland waterfront shot many times in the back,I tried but could never find any article that mentioned her being identified. Certainly reminds me of the Parkin case, and the shooting in the back is like Betty Lou Jensen. And I never thought of the fact it was on the 2 year anniv of the Johns attack. Pretty interesting. Perhaps, Seagull or Foreigner can dig up an article that provided more clues or an ID of the victim. They are both exceptional at that stuff.

No,Parkin lived in Vallejo.

She was from Vallejo but this article says she lived on Grant Street in Berkeley.

She grew up 1.3 miles from the home of Zodiac suspect Arthur Leigh Allen in Vallejo, at the time of her death she lived 1.4 miles away from Zodiac suspect Ted Kaczynski who lived on Regent St. in Berkeley, and her Grant St. home in Berkeley was just one block from Telegraph Ave., site of a possible aborted Zodiac attack.

NURSE FOUND SLAIN IN MARIN -- 9 SHOTS

Victim of multiple of gun wounds, the body of
a blonde, blue-eyed nurse was found yesterday in a
wild, desolate part of Marin's Point Reyes National Seashore. She was identified through fingerprints as Barbara Jane Parkin, 34, of 2224C Grant St., Berkeley, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Richard B. Parkin of 218 Nebraska, St., Vallejo.

Sheriff Louis Montanos and Deputy Coroner Keith
Craig said pending further investigation, they
had no clues and no suspects, although one man she was known to have had a phone talk with last Wednesday has been questioned.

The body was found by Bruce H. Gaines. 25, of
1071 Clayton St., San Francisco, who had gone to
McClure's Beach to fish. He called the Sheriff's
office.

Deputies said the dead woman lay curled on her
side, her head tucked against the base of a fallen
tree. She was fully clothed in blue, denim cutoffs, a long-sleeved yellow sweat shirt, a short wool coat and blue tennis shoes.

There were wounds in her left ear, forehead, left
breast, left knee, right thigh, her back, nape of the neck, left buttock and left groin.

Craig said there were no immediate indications
that the murder involved a sex offense, but that could not be certain until a complete autopsy was completed later today.

Identification was established at the State
Bureau of Criminal Identification by deputies who
went to Sacremento during the night. Miss Parkin's
prints were on file there, as she had applied in 1954 to become a public nurse.

Once her identity and residence were known, the
sheriff contacted her brother, Richard B. Parkin Jr., of 2829 Delmore Rd., San Pablo. The brother said he had not seen Miss Parkin for about three months and did not know if she had been working recently as a nurse, or where. She held
a regular nurse's rating.

He described her as a "very intelligent woman"
who was graduated from Vallejo High School, had
attended UC of Berkeley, then obtained a bachelor of science degree from the UC School of Nursing in
San Francisco.

While it's interesting she was from Vallejo, I don't see this (necessarily) as being a Zodiac crime. It seems as every nurse murder is put under Zodiac and I don't know why.

Even 40+ years later, a nurse it murdered and it must be Zodiac!

Zodiac aside, the articles are still important and I appreciate Sandy and Zam finding them for us.
