This footprint was not visible to the naked eye. A photograph was also taken of a tire track left in haste by the murders. Dewey and the KBI were able to piece together evidence which was corroborated by a fellow prisoner (Floyd Wells) who ratted out the murders for some ransom money being offered at the time.]]> 2016-12-16 15:59:25 UTC https://padlet.com/12319010/ilwusjs6qr3x/wish/144079631 12319010 https://padlet.com/12319010/ilwusjs6qr3x/wish/144082460 Perry Smith and Richard Hickock first met in the Kansas State Prison in
Lansing, Kansas. Smith was eventually paroled, and the pair later resumed their acquaintance upon Hickock's release in November 1959. Hickock allegedly wrote to Smith, imploring him to violate his parole by returning to Kansas to assist Hickock with a robbery he had been planning. Smith claimed that his return was initially motivated not by meeting with Hickock, but by the chance to reunite with another former inmate, Willie-Jay, with whom he had developed an especially close bond while in prison; Smith soon discovered, however, that he had arrived in the Kansas City area just a few hours after Willie-Jay had left for the east coast.]]> 2016-12-16 16:09:54 UTC https://padlet.com/12319010/ilwusjs6qr3x/wish/144082460 12319010 https://padlet.com/12319010/ilwusjs6qr3x/wish/144083106

Wells had worked for Mr. Clutter in 1949, found him a fair employer, and mentioned that he was quite well off. Dick asked if there was a safe in the house, and Wells thought there was. pg 99]]> 2016-12-16 16:17:52 UTC https://padlet.com/12319010/ilwusjs6qr3x/wish/144084746 12319010 https://padlet.com/12319010/ilwusjs6qr3x/wish/144085152 2016-12-16 16:19:16 UTC https://padlet.com/12319010/ilwusjs6qr3x/wish/144085152 12319010 https://padlet.com/12319010/ilwusjs6qr3x/wish/144085491 petty crimes, such as creating and using fraudulent checks, to help make ends meet, and eventually landed in prison, where he met Smith and hatched his plan for robbery and murder.

death of Herb Clutter had been the criminals' main objective. The motive being a
psychopathic hatred, or possibly a combination of hatred and thievery, and he believed
that the commission of the murders had been a leisurely labor, with perhaps two or more
hours elapsing between the entrance of the killers and their exit."pg 95]]> 2016-12-17 21:49:23 UTC https://padlet.com/12319010/ilwusjs6qr3x/wish/144191779 12319010 https://padlet.com/12319010/ilwusjs6qr3x/wish/144192253 Crime: Cheat & Defr. & Bad Checks. Paroled: 8-13-59. By:
