She was deceased for six weeks, how strange that no one checked up on her. I can guess her daughter was with their father. Very sad. The Pom Pom cafe, love to see and hear about places like that, places long gone. The man who was executed only a year after he was charged. Amazing how fast things were done back then.

That building at 5901 Melrose was a really pretty building back in the day. Sad what all took place there. I'm glad they caught and put away that serial killer so he couldn't hurt anyone else. It sounds like the judge made the right decision. What a sad tale about the CNN reporter. I remember her from all those trials, (back when CNN was good, in my opinion). Like you said Scott, one day she was just gone and never saw her again. I had no idea what became of her. Maybe because I no longer lived in Southern California any longer. Such a shame that happened to her. Thank you for always sharing such interesting stories. I always find history so fascinating. :)

Thanks Scott for another outstanding video bringing history alive once again. The "death" of some of the locations as well as humans you feature deserve to be preserved in our memory. I hope the Pom Pom building will be restored rather than torn down. Far too many architecturally significant buildings in this country are permitted to be destroyed and replaced with banal structures all in the name of profit. I haven't seen anything built in the past 60-70yrs that is memorable or possessing one iota of design aesthetics that will stand the test of time. The last great wave of design was MCM buildings and homes that are being systematically razed with ugly boxes and McMansions taking their place. When we stop seeing or mentioning these people and places they will forever be lost.

I read Rope back when it came out. It was a Newton book written late 90's I believe. I wrote this comment freehand without looking anything up, but I think I'm half-accurate. Just going by memory. Really creepy 1957/58 story.

I lived right next door at 584 N Gower St. 1975 - 1984. That home was completely renovated around 1977(8?) if I recall correctly. Its occupants included a couple of younger hoodlum types which would set off fireworks/firecrackers at all hours of the night amongst other troubled activity like loud arguments and blaring music with total disregard for anyone. They were also somehow complicit with the robbery of the hamburger stand on the southwest corner of Gower and Melrose (I believe it was Star burger). Needless to say, they were not liked much. Sad story, Scott. Thanks for the upload.
