I ESPECIALLY WANT to thank noted forensic scientist Dr. Henry C. Lee of Connecticut, without whom this work would not have been accomplished, and Arthur M. Schlesinger Jr., who encouraged me to keep writing. I wish to recognize investigators William W. Turner and Prof. Philip H. Melanson for their advice and assistance. My thanks also to Judge Robert J. Joling and Profs. Robert M. Hendrick and Maura Flannery. Archivists Judy Farrar, Misty Fitch, Rosemary Grossman, Nancy Zimmelman, Jessica Herrick, Mark Davies, Michael Levenstein, Rex Bradford, and the Mary Ferrell Foundation were especially helpful. I thank attorney Larry Teeter for his help, as well as attorney Gregory St. John. Others whom I greatly appreciate are my agent Grace Freedson, Bill Wolfsthal, Wesley Jacques, Emily Houlihan, and Lauren Burnstein at Skyhorse Publishing, and Peter Kilduff, Taivo Raig, and Tony Calabrese. And last, but not least, Theresa L. Nolan, John W. Nolan, Aideen F. Nolan, Patrick and Leanne Nolan, Mary and Andrew Fracchia, Joseph Nolan, and Bella Pangur Ban.
