However, the exact interpretation of what actually happened is (how shall we say it) very questionable. The Newspaper articles, the one we have been able to locate, states that there was a disagreement over money. While the Current Detective Magazine article (see below) claims yet another story. Because this museum has not fully (and independently) investigated the story, we are thus not able to make comment. Thus we must leave it up to the reader to determine what is fact and what was fantasy. Was these a bestial crime committed under the influence of Marihuana (the weed of madness) or was there some other explanation?
