...Folsom and Vallee Rice, all 16. Much of what they told Deputy District Attorney Florence Woodhead seemed to that bespectacled prosecutor "too flaming to repeat." One night eleven couples were lined up waiting in the hall outside the two bedrooms. "Speed" Morgan was accused of plying Barbara Page with liquor, contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

...shot Mr. Love dead. Mrs. Love's arrest, indictment and trial turned out to be the midwinter sensation of Southern California. She was amply photographed kissing her late husband in his coffin, and during the trial one of the women jurors was removed for habitually getting drunk on liquor which she hid in the women's toilet.
