Talk:Murder of Nick Corwin

message: reference 12 says, in part:
"Clomipramine is undergoing federally required testing to meet Food and Drug Administration requirements before the company can sell the drug in the U.S. Dr. John Greist, the Madison psychiatrist, was authorized to dispense Anafrail, but did not prescribe it for Dann, police said."
The article says that Dann was prescribed the drug by a shrink, but then later refers to it as "an unlicensed drug."
Some clarification would be nice. 184.0.94.83 (talk) 11:08, 28 April 2012 (UTC)

message: I re-added a cite from Chicago Tribune that included the note to the ATOs.  The note is similar to the note reported on by a Toronto paper about juice boxes left for families, but it doesn't make as much sense.  I think the CT is more likely to get it right, and they report two notes - the one I added and another one similar to the Toronto paper but left at the Psi Upsilon house, not at some family homes.  Below is a portion quoted from the Tribune:
:During her rounds of the affluent northern surburbs, Dann left packages on porches or stuffed them in mailboxes, Timm said. They contained cereal treats, popcorn and pouches of orange drink.
:Greg McCullough, a member of Alpha Tau Omega fraternity, ate a cereal treat from a paper plate left on the fraternity's porch early Friday, fraternity members said.
:"To the ATOs, from your little sisters," said a note attached to the package. On Saturday, McCullough was called away from a Big Ten track meet to get emergency tests, said Bruce Madej, the university's sports information director.
:At the Psi Upsilon house, a similar package was left with the note "Enjoy, from your little sisters," fraternity members there said.
:Next to the snacks was a plastic chemical bottle that said 'arsenic.' When they found the packages Friday morning, "We thought it was a joke," said Chuck Friedman, a member there.

message: It would be good to have some more photos for this article, but I can't find suitable public domain examples.  If anybody in the area was able to take some pictures of places mentioned that would be great.  I was thinking about the exterior Hubbard Woods and Ravinia Elementary in Highland Park as well as Nick Corwin Park, but maybe there are other ideas?  Slp1 21:40, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

message: As you read through the article, it refers to Laurie's husband (eventual ex-husband) and then to an unnamed ex-boyfriend and his wife. It is not till the bottom of the page that
it states these are two separate people, and the wording is a bit unclear. I'm changing the first instance of the ex boyfriend to "An ex-boyfriend" instead of "her ex-boyfriend" to differentiate.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Maladroitmortal (talk • contribs) 20:59, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

message: Large quotes repeating Farrell's mistake and commentary are not appropriate as well as being a copyright violation. It is unknown why Farrell did not accurately reflect the sources he quotes in his book, (which I have read) but his error in this matter has been widely noted, including by reliable sources such as the Globe and Mail. The short version about why Dann's actions did not provoke concerns about violence against men was that she did not target men, but rather (apparently) people who disappointed her, which included both genders. A quick read of this article, cited to the two full length books written about the murders should make this clear. There's absolutely no reason why we would repeat Farrell's mistakes and claims at length.  --Slp1 (talk) 12:38, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

message: I deleted an incited claim that school shootings have occurred in the US "since pre-independence", due to lack of a citation. Attempts to verify only found one instance of a mass killing at a school during this period, namely one of the events of the Pontiac War, where a teacher and multiple pupils were clubbed and scalped resulting in death. One website (https://www.k12academics.com/school-shootings/history-school-shootings-united-states) describes this as a school shooting, however a more detailed description of the event (Enoch Brown School Massacre) does not mention firearms, and does mention clubbing and scalping.
