There they found the 39-year-old divorcee dead, her body blotched with 251 bruises. While they questioned Richard, Charlotte Millionaire George King Cutter, 48, drove up and introduced himself as "a friend of the family." Cutter, a real estate developer, admitted that he had spent the previous evening with plump, attractive Mrs. Nycum aboard a converted Post Office bus (complete with bar, bath and bedroom) that he kept parked in an abandoned Army...
