Boy, it certainly is interesting to read "the rest of the story."

Ironic too that someone who so assiduously sought out a solitary existence should now be the focus of such intense public interest. Cannot be easy to keep a low profile and out of sight is a small town such as Albion, ME.

I recall reading, back when he was still in county jail, that he had become an object of affection for several women who sought his hand in marriage. Another reason to keep his head down and not answer the door.
