Kenneth Franks, Jill Montgomery and Raylene Rice had the misfortune of meeting up with David Spence and his his friends, brothers Gilbert and Tony Melendez in Koehne Park in Waco, Texas.
It was in this park that the teenagers met with their brutal, untimely death at the hands of David Spence and his friends.
Truman Simons, a veteran police office, took the case personally and worked dilligently to obtain the proof needed to convict the three men who murdered these innocent teens.
The twists and turns of Careless Whispers make it hard to put down. From the intial investigation to the prosecution of Jordanian born Muneer Deeb for his role in the deaths of the teens, the book is full of details as you walk side by side with investigators as they seek justice.
The only disappointing aspect of Careless Whispers is that little information was available regarding the third victim Raylene Rice. However, the author makes note that her family essentially decided to deal with the death of Raylene by distancing themselves from the other victims’ families, investigators and prosecutors. At one point, Stowers even writes that Raylene, because of her families actions, almost became somewhat of an afterthought to the public.
This is an excellent book. One I’m sure that will keep you reading, with never a dull moment!
