    A bit of self-promotion here. My book about the case is now available in print from the usual online sellers (Amazon, Barnes & Noble) and can be ordered through your local bookstore. There's a Kindle, and it's also on Kobo. On December 13th at 3 PM Eastern, Becky Cooper and I will be doing a...

    I can say that she was not the OP. I can say that a Websleuths poster (who is not Becky) played an important role in putting pressure on the DA's office to reopen the case. She may wish to identify herself at some point; it's not for me to do that. I read an Advance Review Copy of Becky's book...

    Pardon me for saying so, Richard, but you're well over a year late on this.

    Thank you Betty P, but I didn't have anything to do with putting pressure on the DA's office to reopen. All the credit goes to Becky, Alyssa, Todd, and Michael. They did it.

    I'm going to paste in something I posted on Facebook, rather than retype everything. ========== Here why I was looking for a maile lei last Friday. Early in the morning on January 7th, 1969, my friend Jane Britton – a fellow graduate student in Harvard’s anthropology department – was murdered...

    You're wondering about a criminal background check on Jane's brother, who was nowhere near Cambridge when she was killed? Why on earth are you wondering about that?

    The letter was quite specific that she was working on a book "about Jane Britton."

    Good to see you here, csb. I don't think there was any serious talk about the "CCLK" figure as a suspect. I don't remember ever hearing rumors of an affair, although it was believed that the police had asked him about it, and he answered with an insult about Jane, which was much talked about...
