Phone Call To Joan Andrews

So true Tom! As for scamming I can only say that Marty nor Bo had a job. Marty went on to work with the carnival (according to a source close to Marilyn, who posted on 28, said Marty and Marilyn met while he was working with the carnival in Oregon). So making these "maps", or whatever "sales campaign" they were going to do, was more than likely for fast money - and possibly something they discussed while in the VA Hospital. One of Marty AND Marilyn's first big scams (besides leaving Aunt Joan hanging with the pinto) was sending him to the VA Hospital in an attempt to be diagnosed with PTSD. I don't know if Marty and Bo had known each other previously.

Bo/Crim and Bradley Interview:

Boubede: Uh, yes. Uh, well, see, I had known Marty, uh, prior to his marrying uh, Marilyn. Uh, and, uh, I had Marty interested in putting out a map for Keddie and, uh, for Quincy and East Quincy. And , uh, we went to the, umm, Chamber of Commerce and, uh, they set up for us to meet them on the 28th of this month, uh, to present our map and, uh, our presentation. And then, uh, this thing came up in Klamath Falls and I said, "well, fine, we'll take that, if you like." And then, uh, with Marilyn becoming so upset and, uh, Justin becoming so upset. We supposed, if she don't mind, uh, if you'd go down, and, uh, I'll be down, uh, Monday morning.

PCSO Report of Interview with Dee Lake 4-22-81:

 FRB April 1, 1981 edition we found this:

An organization identified as "Law Enforcement Report" has been soliciting donations for advertisements in a "CHP Yearbook" or "CHP Journal". Both are non existent publications.

In Shasta and Tehama counties solicitations have been made by phone and in at least one instance the caller identified himself as a CHP sergeant

The article ended with this:

Citizens receiving calls should notify their nearest CHP office.

I don't know anything about Marty's children or if they all stayed with their mother when he left them but what I do know is regardless of how many he had he referred to his "4" children at the beginning of the letter. The love letter is only about how he had treated Marilyn's kids better than she had treated his and he had given up his kids for her love but now she had left him because he was jealous of her but for what he had given up (his kids) he should be jealous. No doubt he was resentful of what he had done for her - yet he still wanted her back.

  It is a gigantic stretch to say the letter was about murder because neither Sue, Johnny, Tina, or Dana were his "flesh and blood" nor "four of the most precious things in his life".
