Were the murderers foiled by having to use the phone book instead of the newspaper? Was it the lack of pictures that stopped them?
- tartoran 4y agoProbably the photo and adress published together would make it much easier to trigger murdering psychopaths whereas phonebooks had no pictures. Just my assumption as I am not familiar with this practice, though I do believe it is quite a bad idea
