I’ve asked myself a thousand times how a simple newspaper article of fewer than one-hundred words had started my heart racing, fired my imagination, and steeled my determination locked and loaded. But why him and why me? What was there about that story about a...

August 31, 1984. I wrote about this trip to the Miller/Campbell crime scene in the first chapter of my book. But now that I have a blog, I decided to include a few photos so readers could get the look and feel of what it was like for me to be there. John let me go...

About halfway through my collaboration, lunchtime had become an uneasy truce. Most of my adult life, I never paid much attention to eating lunch at a certain time. If I was playing tennis or out with friends or working around the house, lunch happened when it...

Same Day: Philippe’s Restaurant, LA.  John and I walked into Phillipe’s lunch hour crowd, put in our order, and headed for a back booth. Within five minutes, Dambacher sprinted in, spotted John, and shook his outstretched hand. He turned to me, smiled with a megawatt...

I expected the usual ten minute-drive from the Parker Center parking lot to Philippe’s in lunchtime traffic to take just a few minutes. Normally, he’d zip through traffic like Mario Andretti at the Indy 500. Instead, we were stuck behind what seemed a never-ending...

September 20, 1985.  I stepped into our master bedroom closet, dodged the wicker laundry basket, a pile of clothes and stack of shoeboxes. My brain buzzed with one question. What would I wear to a meeting between LAPD Detective John “Jigsaw” St. John and Chief Medical...

The cop and the coroner: part three “I waited for everyone to finish lunch before starting the interview. Finally, I turned to Danny and said, “Between the two of you, there’s enough stories to fill a library of law enforcement books. Danny, I’d love to hear a few.”He grabbed hold of a toothpick bearing an olive and gave the martini a swirl...” read the full blog, link below 🔽🔽🔽 ... See MoreSee Less

I dug in my heels. What the heck did seeing an autopsy have to do with writing this book? “You handle the autopsies. I’ll handle the writing,” I told him…"read the full blog by clicking below ⬇️⬇️⬇️ ... See MoreSee Less

This “law and order” experience was different from all the other mornings I’d spent in courtrooms, because Jeff, my fifteen-year-old son, sat beside me. Between Jeff and me sat Detective John St. John, who came because Jeff expressed interest in this case and wanted to see how a real trial worked......Jeff’s final impression of the Menendez brothers felt pitch-perfect: “Watching them walk into the courtroom dressed in those blue jail clothes felt strange. They looked like two rich, spoiled kids who thought they could get away with anything.” Read the entire blog by clicking the article below 👇👇👇 ... See MoreSee Less
