...first met Dunne in Washington when I had him on my radio show. He was supposed to chat for an hour but stayed for three. He was your ideal guest: passionate, humorous and extraordinarily honest. Dunne was the first to admit that when he covered high-profile crimes, he was "prosecution-oriented." The careful term alluded to the first and most painful trial he ever witnessed--that concerning his daughter Dominique, a 22-year-old actress who was strangled to death by an ex-boyfriend...
