I heard that someone else was also writing a book on the case, so that should be an interesting read as well. I will post info on that one as soon as we get it.
Please give us information on the White's and her parents.
ReplyDeleteI would like that followup too. As far I as I can tell, they're still alive; and I know Ken Taylor's parents are deceased. I would have liked more insights into them (Taylors) and what their influence did to Ken. — Deb O Rah
