      Ron’s sister did a podcast about the case a few years ago, and it was clear that it was cathartic for her to get everything out there. The families tried to stop this book from being published at all, so I think this is the best they could do with the situation they had.

        Yeah, people only remember the title/cover from the book. Sucks to have the horror story printed, but at least the vast majority of people who know about it think about the only “good” aspect of it.

        I guess other then him virtually admitting to doing it and rubbing it in their face because our legal system is a joke.

          He was broke at the time so this was supposed to be a provocative way for him to make money and pay his fines. Guess no one told him that it was a dumb move lol
