Alexandra Clery?

Alexandra Clery is victim #30 in Graysmith's Zodiac.

I located an article for a woman named Alexandria Joan Gery who was found murdered in Oakland the day after Graysmith's Clery was said to have been murdered.

The two are probably the same person. I have not been able to find either name (or combination of the different names) in the California Death Index or the Social Security Death Index to nail down the correct information for this victm.

Any help in figuring this out would be appreciated.

I agree it's most likely the same person.

Weird you can't find anything else. Seems like that would have been a big story! And no more mention of whose truck?? Weird.

Wheter this is the same woman as: Alexandra Clery victim #30 in Graysmith's Zodiac, I´m not 100% sure, but it IS likely her IMO.

Thank you so much TF!

I looked and looked for that information but maybe I didn't use the right combination of names.

It really annoys me when a victim's name is so badly messed up and that Clery mistake has been duplicated over and over.

Your welcome
And yes it IS annoying when the names are spelled wrong
