Sorry, I don't care about their families "good name". If they have the evidence they should release their names. HER name receiving justice is more important than THEIR names being protected, IMO.

Agree really bad way of handling a criminal case by Philly cops onceagain

This is a very sad case...the poem the mother wrote really got to me..and the postscript was nothing short of heart-wrenching. "Our prayers were answered on April 13, 1968."

You would think they could still possibly get some DNA from the bag she was found in. And the possible Ted Bundy connection is very interesting.

This is a strange one ops will not prosecute men who killed ?this girl oh they are dead so we do not want to hurt their families WHAT. .

The trackless trolley (trolleybus) Candy was intending to catch was undoubtedly Route 66.
