LA. Weekly has taken a deep dive into the Jeanne French case. I won’t get into all of it here, except to show why Dr. George Hodel didn’t kill Jeanne French.
Here’s a partial print of the killer’s shoe from the Jeanne French crime scene. Investigators determined that it came from a man’s Size 6 or Size 7 shoe while Dr. Hodel had, according to relatives, “very large feet.”
And if the shoe doesn’t fit, you must acquit.

And here I thought Hodel’s father was responsible for all the famous murders in California. Who knew? (sarcasm)

Dr. George Hodel also invented the Edsel, New Coke and discovered Milli Vanilli. His perfidy knows no bounds.

When I first read Steve Hodel’s book I thought there was a chance He might have solved the Black Dahlia case. Where he totally loses credibility is when he accuses his father of every crime in North America including the Chicago murders ( when George Hodel never even visited Chicago!), the Zodiac killings and every murder committed within a hundred mile radius of L.A.!

I still cringe thinking of Ellroy getting caught up in the Hodel hype, writing the introduction to the first Avenger book.
