I didn't know that
you weren't allowed to write to a prisoner awaiting trial
on a murder charge, so I wrote to him
in innocence -- complete ignorance, really -- and said that,
"I am interested in the case in which
you find yourself involved, and I would like to do
a study of it, but I would not do so without your cooperation
and permission." He first letter to me --

onto your shoulders." -A life that began
almost 40 years previously
