| Rai I think the original charge would have read Felonious Use of Carnal Knowledge. As you say Rape, but the initials of the original charge still linger. Frank |

| Eddie if you read Rai's post you'd see Webster wasn't at RD . If something is grossly in error I believe it doesn't serve any purpose by posting it. 90th |

| Hi 90th
I understand what you are saying, I was only adding another newspaper article. In some cases, even though they were not at RD, the information may lead to another link to somewhere else.
