the victim of a love triangle.
The leather merchant who was
divorced last year by his wife
whom he later remarked was
preparing to again separate from
his family. According to state
ments made to police Rohm had
been referred to on more than
one occasion as a love pirate"
and he is believed to have paid
the price for having violated the
home of some married man.
That the woman in the case is
married, police are convinced but
are apparently UP against a stone
wall as no trace of the woman
in the case can be located.
Several women with whom
Rohm had been acquainted will
be interrogated today in addi-
ton to a number of business
associates who police feel may
furnish information which will
aid them in solving the battling
crime.
