Thoresen newspaper articles

Wild Bill to the rescue!! This article is from 1957 and is the earliest article I have seen on Thoresen so far. It makes him seem like the "good guy," but I bet he was looking for trouble.



I was reading up on the Judith Mae Andersen murder last year, and someone had mentioned that they didn't think Thoresen would be that far south, because he was a rich spoiled Kenilworth kid. This article places Thoresen in the area where Andersen's body was found. I think the article was within a few months of the murder as well. Thoresen would have been 19, almost 20, at the time.

Thanks for posting those. I will have to see if those NY men were members of the Minutemen. I know Thoresen had dealings with at least one Minutemen in New Jersey.

This one is pretty cool. From the S.F. Chronicle Dec. 22, 1967.

I didn't even know they were going to have a second child. I wonder how this would have changed William. Probably not at all, but who knows.

I just found an article written last year on the SF Examiner website.

I think their some minor mistakes in the article. It says that William used the money he got from his brother's death to move to SF, but he had actually been living there before his brother's death. Richard was actually going to be moving to SF himself but obviously didn't.

"Stoney Richardson" was actually Dale Stoddard. "Stone Richardson" is what he was called in Louise's book.

Top left of this newspaper has an article about Richard's death from the 1970 Chicago Tribune.
