Halloween whodunit

For Halloween, this is a murder memoir.

In the 1960s, I was like every other young reporter in Lexington. I dreamed of solving the infamous Betty Gail Brown murder case.

Brown was 19. A student at Transylvania University, her body had been found strangled with her own brassiere at 3 a.m. Oct. 27, 1961, in her car parked on the circular drive in front of Morrison Hall. The coroner estimated she had died between 1 and 1:39 a.m.

It was to become Lexington's best-known unsolved homicide in the second half of the 20th century.

Good article.
