There was a murder on the losse, a serial killer and rapist. 'The Full Moon Maniac' -- that was what the ARMITAGE ADVERTISER called him, although only one of his attacks had occurred exactly on a night of a full moon -- who had struck three times in the past eighteen months. He preyed on couples in lovers’ lanes, locking the man in the trunk of a car while he forced the woman to commit what the ADVERTISER called 'unnatural acts.' On the last occasion, a young man named John Evans had been shot to death. . . . 3
