That does look like Nichols on the right of that wanted poster. It also kinda reminds me of DURST. Maybe I need to look up that case and read it. maybe there is something in there that might connect....Have you found anything in that case that makes you go hmmm on Nichols other than the sketch?

about Amy Mihaljevic,,,,
somewhere when I was looking up all this stuff on Nichols I came across the name Mihaljevic. I had not even looked at the case on amy and did not even realize she had that same last name.
and I also remember stuff with Cuyahoga on the locations. now I have to go back and find that stuff and see why I kept finding that last name and that county all over when looking for Nichols. I think I might have saw it on the census records? I can't remember. it wasn't about the little girl amy because I did not even realize that was her name etc. I definitely have to go figure out why that last name was coming up connected with my Nichols search. it was either in the Genealogy or the census records. I might start on that tonight.

I think he had to be using other ID's. I'm going to try to start looking a different way other than by his name.

Here's something to consider... The "ZODIAC your partner is in DEEP REAL ESTATE...." personal ad from 1976 could be the reason that Nichols fled California. We don't know exactly when he left for South Dakota, but if he had anything to do with the Zodiac murders, maybe the personal ad spooked him and that is the reason he left California and started using a fake name. Just a thought.

Just a thought. ____________ there is definitely something going on with this guy for sure. We have to figure out how to track this guy and see who he was around and what all he was connected to. We need to start paying very close to all the other people connected to the z and to btk and to the wizards etc haha. maybe he is around one of them? We need to take his miliarty info and start comparing it to the military info of all the other people. the connection might be there? if there is one We already know he just up and took off to Deerborn Michigan and that seems to be when he made a decision to just get up and GO DO 'something'. Mighican is the origin of all this crap, I just know it, it is always the common denominator, so who the heck in Michigan did Robert Nichols know.

I have been looking into people in South Dakota and Ohio that he may have been somehow involved with, and pretty much came up empty. Richard Gaikowski was from South Dakota, but I don't see any connection there. And even though Nichols was only in Michigan for a short time, that is the place that I would really like to know what he was up to and who he was associating with.

Yes Gaikowski was in South Dakota, thought of that too, but like you, I can't find nor think of the connection to that.
I also agree, Michigan is where he took off too, leaving his family behind. So what really was over there for him to choose going there? The other thing that makes me look at Michigan is because it seems so many of the crazy sk's have ties there. Something up with Michigan for sure. Now does Nichols have a "creepy" tie to Michigan, I don't know. Probably a really good idea for us to figure out why he went THERE in the first place

Here is my two cents in Nichols, I was interested in the Nichols story and did some investigating. I was in touch with Marshall Peter Elliott and gave him my findings. He would call me when he had a question for me.
The conclusion was that Nichols went into hiding to avoid paying child support. I found another marriage for him and gave that info to the Marshall, he was very nice to talk to and I could tell he actually listened to everything I had to say. Nichols suicide was more than likely because he had cancer.
There is absolutely no proof he did anything more than be a deadbeat father. He most certainly was not Zodiac! .

That's what I was wondering at first because putting a penny in the letter he sent to his son seemed to me like he was saying "this is all the money you are ever going to get from me." But what doesn't add up is why he would cut off all contact with his parents and siblings as well. It seemed like they were close. Either way I'm sure we will never know the truth about this guy.

He was so determined to not pay any child support , to do that he had to cut all ties to his family. Of course we don't know for sure if they were in touch or not? (Families will stick together through thick and thin) The penny that was sent to his son was the clue for me to realize he was not going to send any money, no matter what. To keep from going to jail for non support, he chose to change his ID and it did work.
I know how desperate some deadbeats are. I divorced my husband in 1960 and asked for only $25.00 per child. He planned to make himself disappear rather than pay that small amount, by tipping a boat over on a lake or river and leaving his wallet with ID , so it would look like he drowned. That is one reason why I became interested in Nichols sending the penny to his son. I feel that the Marshall may have agreed with me, because he hasn't done anything else with that case that I know of?

I can see it as a guy evading child support payments. There's nothing that points in the direction of criminal activities.

I'm looking at any potential ties that Nichols may have had with organized crime. There was a mobster named Anthony Dominic Liberatore that was arrested at a mob safe house in Eastlake, OH right around the time Nichols probably would have moved there. Which also makes me wonder, was Nichols a snitch that went into hiding?
