Talk:Thalia Massie

Living people category
I'm not certain - but I believe that I read somewhere that Thalia Fortescue Massie died. I will research this further. Aloysius Patacsil 23:19, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

''Thalia never seemed to be able to control the mental instability she revealed during the 1932 trial of her husband and mother. Her self-serving version of events implicated five men in a crime they could not have committed. One of the men was killed as a result, and the others never fully escaped the shadow of the trial. When investigating Pinkerton detectives reported that the accused young men were undeniably innocent, Thalia rejected their findings, stating, "It's a lie -- and a stupid lie." She never exhibited any remorse or discussed the possibility that she had identified the wrong men. Another failed marriage and a number of suicide attempts later, Thalia finally overdosed on barbiturates in her Palm Beach, Florida, home in 1963.''

I believe this confirms her death and the removal of the category "Living People." Aloysius Patacsil 23:35, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

Bias
Why does it say she WAS beaten but CLAIMED to be raped? It implies that the victim lied about the rape. FlospyFlospy (talk) 02:18, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
