Nash And Diles Charged With Murder – Face Death Penalty
To all of the Wonderland fans… I hope you have a Happy Easter!
Nash and Diles retained Leslie Abramson as their attorney in the 1990 trial? She would later go on to defend other notorious individuals, most notably Phil Spector and the Menendez brothers. Sorry the photo is a bit bleached out, but it is still interesting enough to post here.

Lots of typos in this article. Someone hire a proofreader.

Something that occurred to me yesterday was a similarity betweeen the killings and a scene in Clerks. Randall (in Clerks) concluded that innocent workers had died in Return of the Jedi while working on the second Death Star, since those people were skilled in construction, not (unknowingly yet to the audience, cloned) soldiers. Barbara Richardson and Susan Launius were aware of what was going on at Wonderland, but most likely not skilled in drug dealing and scheming. Thoughts?

Susan was only there for 16 hours prior to the murders. She had been separated from Ron for a long time. I doubt she knew anything about the robbery. Barbara was present was present during the planning stages for the robbery. Less innocent, but yes I do not think Eddie planned on 3 women being there, not that he, Diles or assailants had much of a conscience.

Wow. Only 16 hours. That is like the kid at Sharon Tate’s house. Just stopped in at the exact wrong time. The way I see Susan is that she left Launius for a reason. Probably because he wouldn’t give up his ways. Richardson coulda been one of those really naive girls who just stayed out of the business. IF Lind was like they say he was, I could really see that. Course, all we have to go by is the movie…
