Neighbors of the Halperins in suburban Brighton reported that they had seen the professor and his wife loading up their car at 3 a.m. Thanksgiving morning, and the two "had enough luggage in their car to outfit a large family for a year." The next thing B.U. knew, Maurice Halperin was in Mexico City...
