It was a year since he lost his brother Ben and an over one hundred community members had died from this crazy person and wrote a memorial for those lost and even testified at the shooter's trial and got this man a lighter sentence and even began a stop by to see him. The man would be out in three years and Richard was hoping by then he would have his own newspaper and would give him a job.The editorial where he called the killer of over a hundred people a lunatic brought in a reply in the mail which he signed Dr. Death. Richard turne it over to the police who was investigating this case hoping there were be fingerprints. The only fingerprints on the letter itself was smudged except for Richard and his assistant who had handled it
The newspaper agreed to let Richard do an update on hie editorial and this time any envelope that was addressed to the editorial that didn't have a returned address on it would be turned over to the police unopened. Richard's assistance would pick up the letters by a corner using a light weight glove..Every time Richard wrote a bad review on this murderer then within two or three days he would get another radial note from a person who called himself or herself Dr. Death but police still wasn't any closer to finding out who it was so they all agreed to ignore him and see what he would do At first he didn't take the bait so the police made a false statement to the news that they had arrested someone and was going to be charging him.
