If it is unfair to ask that CRIMSON drama critics understand in detail the ways and means of stage production, as I can understand it might be, I do not think it so to ask that they confess their views to be those of the "average theatre-goer" rather than those of a professional critic.

Soon after the Worthingtons' bodies surfaced, Gebhardt and young Worthington were arrested as prime suspects, but the evidence was all circumstantial and neither man would confess anything. Then Gebhardt's lawyer, who under Florida law had no way of learning the strength, or weakness, of the case against his client, offered the deal that did the police's work for them.
