I took a look over that but didn’t see that fact. Maybe you read it a day or two ago?
It appears he was a close family friend of the parents. Had known them since before the girl was born.
What I'm wondering is...how did the mother (who was killed, along with Hannah's younger brother) end up at the house which burned down, in the first place? There was some mention (I forget where) there was to be some send-off for this DiMaggio guy.
I'm losing track of what sources I've opened (that one link keeps reloading-- I had to close another one and not link from it here, Gannet sources don't like FR IIRC) but there was mention this DiMaggio guy was having to move from where he was living, why, I don't know. Was going to be on his way to Texas, allegedly? Then, part of this family he had long been "friends" of, ends up at his house, two die, but the saucy looking 16 yr old goes with him...for six days? Does not sound good for him. He looks to have been a creep. But if I was a cop, I'd not assume anything totally without reservation, but be making sure, doing whatever needed doing (or asking) to find out what actually happened all along the line...
Don’t recall when I read it.
