shut case. Canada's leading radio talk show host came to the door of his luxury
condominium, his hands bloody, and said to the newspaper deliveryman, "I

alcoholic, the presence of strange fingerprints at the crime scene, and the
refusal of the accused to say anything--even to his attorney--lead to a hotly
contested murder trial.
