Here’s Boxie (formerly Boxy) and I with this month’s “Ask Me Anything” on George Hodel.
In this session, I discussed Steve Hodel’s indignant rebuttal to last month’s Ask Me Anything on George Hodel regarding Brian Carr’s statement at Steve never asked to see his father’s file before writing “Black Dahlia Avenger,” and if Steve had asked, Brian would have showed it to him “out of professional courtesy.”
I also discussed an offensive claim circulating in the darkest areas of the web that George Hodel was a “Jewish serial killer” and examined the history of the Hodel family (no, the name was not “Goldgefter”) and its religious affiliations, as reflected in public records.
We also talked about:
–Is there any evidence that George Hodel and Elizabeth Short ever crossed paths?
–The saga of Lillian Lenorak.
–Is there any evidence that George Hodel ever held drug-fueled “orgies?”
–Can you give a short synopsis of George Hodel’s positive and negative traits? Do you think he had an unhealthy interest in children?
–Is the worst we can confidently say about George Hodel, is that he wasn’t the best dad?
–What about the “B.D.” or “P.D.” in the Jeanne French photo?
–Buster the Cadaver Dog.
