I sent a very similar e-mail, got the same reply, Read. Also, the rorschachs journal morse code has been updated, it now reads
-.- .. - - -.-- / --. . -. --- ...- . ... . / .-- .- ... / - .... . / ... - .- .-. - .-.-.-
or
KITTY GENOVESE WAS THE START.

Well, I've definitely found something here.
Kitty Genovese
Looks like we've got a murder mistery on our hands, folks

She was killed and there were a lot of witnesses, but nobody did anything because they were all afraid of doing something to intervene on their own.
It's called "bystanders effect," also known as "Genovese syndrome."
Rorschach said he "Stood in the street. Watched it burn," so he's obviously suffered from Genovese syndrome, but we still don't know what he saw happen. That'll be our next lead, I'm guessing. I'm going to email him again

I also found this:
http://www.angelfire.com/comics/mooreportal/kitty.html
It's a Watchmen comic about the Kitty Genovese murder.
Coincidence, no?
We've got plenty to work with here, so let's get to it.

I've strangley starting reading the watchman in the library near my work.
I've not finished it but i dont want to ruin it for people who have to read it so Ill put it in a spolier
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
In the comic he tracks down a murderer and chains him in a building before setting fire to it and he watch it burn. Rorschach does not have genovese syndrome. Hes bit like the punisher. He breaks the law to stop criminals

So he killed Genovese is what I'm guessing, since his clue was "Kitty Genovese was the start"

Rorschach turned into a crime fighter due to the death of someone like Genovese. They might have called the character that was murdered the same name but would have to check.
The only people he would kill are criminals

Sorry, meant to add this to my post earlier, The real life murder of Kitty Genovese is recreated in the comic Watchmen, and is the reason that Rorschach gives for turning to a vigilante hero lifestyle.
I would highly recommend reading the comic, it is fantastic.

New code on the journal, guys. I'm in for this ARG.
... .- .-- / --. .-. . -... . .-. .. -.. / .- -. -.. / -.-- --.. .--- . .--. -.-. ... -.- ..- / .-.-. ....- ----- .-.-.- --... ..... ....- ----. ..... ----- -....- ----- --... ...-- .-.-.- ----. ---.. ---.. ----- ..... ---.. / .- -. / .- ..-. ..-. .- .. .-. / .--. . .-. .... .- .--. ... ..--..
Um... My translator isn't translating this so well....
I'll update when I do it by hand
Edit: I think I have it.

SAW GREBERID AND YZJEPCSKU ?40.754950-073.988058 AN AFFAIR PERHAPS?
Edit: That first question mark... I have no idea what that is... the second one is really a question mark.
My third edit: The only thing it looks like it could be is a period, but the code is missing a "dah" ( a hyphen )
