      I haven't watched it all yet, so I'll hold judgement.
      But back in 1975 we didn't have the forensics that we have now.
      And everything relied upon good old fashioned police detective work.
      And how well they wanted to do it.
      There would have been enormous pressure to find the culprit.
      And in so many of these old crimes it was easier to see the culprit in her known last moments of her life.
      They home in on them and then find their evidence to connect them to it.
      They are blinkered and don't look outside the box.
      Because what would be the chances of a complete random stranger passing through???
      Slim!!
      But it happens!!
      The amount of blood and how messy the crime was.
      There must be stacks of DNA nowadays?
      Now if that has been "lost" over the years??
      Then I would definitely lean towards the Kennedy's more.
      But I really can't see why this isn't solved easily today.

      She wasn't saying no what are you talking about. Her friends left cuz she wasn't saying no and hooking up with Tommy. I think it was a jealous Dickey or that black guy. Dickey was like she didn't dance with anyone else as if it still hurts his feelings. Dickey is delusional or possessive or both. She wrote in her diary how she danced with 5 different people 2 of them she didn't even know their names and one of those 2 slow danced the fast part of stairway to heaven which is creepy considering it's like 10 minutes long and half of it is slow.

    I FULLY believe it was Tommy, Michael or both. Maybe Ken Littleton's behavior changed after he was let go due to lying about Tommy's alibi? He was then let go--wonder if he had a 'parting' gift, and his firing was a way to create distance from the family.
