I haven't read much about the case but some seem to think a George Hodel was the killer.
Did he have a motive?

I don't see any compelling evidence that Dr. Hodel ever set eyes on Short, in fact by the end of 1946, she was a tragic individual, not much above a street person, who was in deteriorating health and that the doctor would not likely have considered associating with.
Small detail, but in an autopsy photo it shows the soles of her feet were dirty, as though she were walking barefoot outdoors.

According to forensic anthropologist Arpad Vass, PhD, a pioneer in chemical analysis of human decomposition, those samples are 'consistent' with Steve Hodel's theory of homicide victims buried in shallow graves 70-80 years ago.
'The soil came up positive for human remains because there are a number of human specific markers,' said Vass from his laboratory in Oak Ridge, Tennessee.
Black Dahlia killer unmasked: Notorious case of aspiring starlet who was cut in half and had 'Joker smile' carved into her face is finally solved, despite 'cover-up by LAPD'
WARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT
*Elizabeth Short, 22, was found gruesomely murdered in 1947 in Los Angeles, gaining national attention and was dubbed the Black Dahlia
*The aspiring starlet's body was severed, her stomach filled with feces and her body was completely drained of blood
*The horrendous murder has not been officially solved, although a break came in 1948 when Leslie Dillon was seduced out of hiding and revealed himself
He knew pieces of information that was never made public, including that Short's rose tattoo had been cut out from her leg and inserted in her vagina
But despite this evidence, Dillon was never prosecuted and detectives never had 'headway with their investigation' because of corruption within the LAPD
*It's suggested that the case was never solved because Dillon worked for Mark Hansen, a wealthy and powerful Hollywood man with ties to the police
Hansen had known Short as she lived in a house he owned and is said to have grown tired of her pestering him for money so he told Dillon to take care of her
The case against Dillon is made in Piu Eatwell's new book Black Dahlia, Red Rose: The Crime, Corruption, and Cover-Up of America's Greatest Unsolved Murder

Nah, don't believe it, whenever a case could not be solved because of some kind of conspiracy theory, I lost interest,
It's hard for me to believe this crime was a one-off, that is, unless the killer committed suicide during some ensuing lucid moment.
