Thank you. That's what I thought they were saying, but that sounded incredible to me, so I thought I may have misunderstood. I wonder if that's been known to happen before.
It does seem like a rare occurrence

If Brasher was the only perp, how did he manage to subdue all four victims?
Maybe if he used a weapon, though !
Poor girls must have been so terrified.
These were innocent young girls. Even four strong men are no match against one skinny evil man with a good firearm. I always expected it would be a Tommy Lynn Sells type guy. It kind of reminds me of the Lane Bryant horror.
All JMO

Thanks very much, @theonewithallthequestions. Absolutely sickening to think that he did all this in the span of 30 or whatever minutes.

I decided to watch the HBO Documentary now.

OMG!

Those false confessions

Springsteen: "I was at Rocky Horror because I always go on Friday nights"

Detective: "What if I tell you that Rocky Horror wasn't shown that night?"

Fact: Rocky Horror was shown that night!

On and on it went. I haven't finished watching it yet, but I think that the detective is still absolutely convinced he had the right guys even though they were eventually released from prison. He sure seemed sure of himself in 2021, although Springsteen and Scott had been released in 2009.

Scott's defense attorney seemed to be good about understanding interrogation and false confessions.

I hope someone in law enforcement learned something from this....
