with the coroner's office," said
Dr. Jerry Kearns, chief patholo
gist of St. KHznbeth's Hospital
and former pathologist for many
years for the coroner's office.
"The murderer in this case was
diabolically clever." Kearns said.
'He used a method which we are
Unable to delect. Perhaps he is a
person trained in chemistry and
with a knowledge of unusual poi-
005."
Thp autopsy findings disclosed
(he sisters had not been molested
sexually; did not die by strangu
lation, or carbon monoxide poison
ing; no signs of external violence

to cold temperatures for r.ame
time.
