Sharyne, thanks for the link!
Just as an aside - the headshot published in that story is just beautiful. I wish the fashions and hairstyles of that era were still popular...
The criss-cross marks are pretty unnerving, aren't they?
I think if Hodel's son had not made such a big deal of those pictures the rest of the circumstantial stuff he's turned up would be taken more seriously. It's always the first (and mostly only) point of debunk raised in argument against him.
I read an interesting quote from LE regarding Jack Anderson Wilson (aka Arnold Smith), a prime suspect. I'll link it when I can find it again, but it basically said that if Wilson hadn't died in a fire he'd probably have been charged for the murder, as the evidence against him was pretty strong, and he was LE's no.1 contender after his confession in the 80's.
