We chose to use this book because it provided us with an ideal primary source. This
book was written by Raymond Bonner, a key figure in the Elmore case, and gave us a
first person insight into the case itself and the troubles he faced.

This article was also written by Bonner, who spent months researching and investigating
this case. It provided a shortened summary of the case itself and helped to clarify pieces
of the book that were harder to understand.

into great depth about this event and gave us many interesting details to add.

detail that the book nor other articles contained.

This was his third and final appeal that his team made before new evidence surfaced and
Diana Holt joined the case. This gave us insight into the actions within the courtroom and
once again helped us to see how hard he sought to prove his innocence. It greatly
provided us with details that mended our ideas together.

incident took place and help us understand just how severe this event was.

crime scene in depth and was the major source of information for it. This also gave us a
basic overview of the entire event and gave us a solid starting foundation.

pull information from and helped us to explain what the death penalty was at the time.
This also gave us insight on other cases in which the death penalty had a major role.

throughout our country.

him to help with getting information on Elmore and he would look out for him in
return. He apparently lied to benefit himself.

hairs were not photographed on the bed. Photographs of a bed in another room

did not collect the sheets or bed covers for examination in a lab. They actually put

packaged like other evidence taken from the crime scene.

This image shows a lawyer crossing his fingers behind his back and is intended to
represent prosecutorial misconduct. Elmore's original defense lawyers and
prosecutors did not inform the jury about SLEDs gross handling of evidence.
They were mistake-prone and outright dishonest. Based on our thesis, this is an
important image for our website.
