I don't know why people would think that the EAR/ONS came from a family of influence. If LE couldn't catch him, then they couldn't catch him.
Look at Jack the Ripper. Over the years armchair sleuths have come up with theories that he was protected because of ties to the royal family and other sensationalistic scenarios with very little facts to back them up.
Rumors are usually theories that sound good for entertainment, but are likely false. Look no further then this board for examples: Brett Glasby faked his own death, the Zodiac killer could have been the Unabomber, Ransacker, and maybe even BTK...or they were all part of a secret cabal. The EAR/ONS is Mr. Y. His prints were taken from victim's homes in Visalia....oh wait, we're not sure where that source came from anymore.
He was a cop, he was an F.B.I. agent, former Delta Force warrior in Viet Nam. The list goes on and on....
I imagine theories like this popped up all over back in the day from people that had no idea what they were talking about. Probably over cold Olympia beers drunken in Bakersfield dive bars.
My sentiments exactly. I think you also have to take into account people not having all the information, and with LE not releasing anything new lately, imaginations can sometimes run a little wild.
