Quotes1

  • Lt. Fred Williams: It wasn't Mickey Scellenda. He was dead for four days before Kitty's murder. So, I guess we're back to square one. Right?
  • Dr. Paul Davis: Well, we are... and we're not. By wiping out Scellenda as a suspect, who was really just a procurer and a peeper, brings us back to my original idea. It's a person who blames the rest of the society for their troubles. Let's say that it's a woman. She randomly chooses her victims because they're prettier, more attractive, and a lot more sophisticated.
  • Lt. Fred Williams: And if it's a man?
  • Dr. Paul Davis: If the killer is a man, then it's a man involved with a woman whom he loves very much but that there's something wrong with her like she's frigid, unattractive, and less fortunate than this victims.
  • Lt. Fred Williams: So in this case, he used Mickey Scellenda to go around procuring his women?
  • Dr. Paul Davis: It would appear so. Scellenda was just a petty criminal who got caught in the middle of it all. He relayed his conquests to the killer on a regular basis that in a way made him more wary about his employer. Scellenda eventually went too far and randomly assaulted Fay Majors. When she fingered him as the killer, he broke into her house and tried to kill her. Having failed that, he found himself in a dead end alley and knowing that he would get blamed for all of the murders, he ended it all by putting a plastic bag over his head.
