The scene in which Perry's sister is writing a letter to Perry in jail, and speaking her mind on his crimes. She says, "...not because of what you did but the fact that you don't show me any signs of sincere regret." 
This is true because this is a direct letter from Perry's sister so we can guarantee that this is what she thought and said. Additionally, from interviewing other sources it would be easily confirmed the Perry didn't feel any regret for his actions. ]]> 2023-01-31 20:58:31 UTC https://padlet.com/rhill139/wvfv3bbgnl7em90/wish/2463685418 https://padlet.com/rhill139/wvfv3bbgnl7em90/wish/2463687171 emma h.

When Mr. Jones and his family, not the clutters, were the murder's s intended victims. "it mades harder sense," argued one of those who held this view.

This was called the "Jones Theory" where the towns people thought they killers had mistaken the instructions to the house and had taken a wrong turn and ended up at the Clutter's.

During this scene, Perry and Dick are on an errand to attain black stockings, and Perry decides to get them from a nunnery. This brings up Perry's belief that nuns and things related to them are bad luck. This leads the author to list some of his other superstitions. "Some others were the number 15, red hair, white flowers, priests crossing a road, and snakes appearing in a dream." (page 42) Overall I feel this could be the truth or stretch of the truth because the only person who would know this is himself Perry himself, and with his personality of keeping most things to himself and trying to sound as though he has no fears, he would not have told a complete stranger interviewer. If Perry did tell Dick, regardless of his toxic masculinity, Dick would not have remembered these random details, especially not as many as there were listed.
