Jackie Peterson#8217;s locket, showing her as a child in the arms of her father, John Latham, who was murdered on December 23, 1945. Jackie and her mother, Helen, wore the locket at their weddings; Jackie gave it to me in 1998.

One of the yellow-ribboned badges Don and Melody gave me when they joined the search for Laci.

One of the many rambling letters Scott sent me from prison, this one from January 2004. “I will take this time to humanize this cell with my pictures of Laci and the rest of our family,” he wrote.
