It's been 60 years. Why the heck has no one solved this case yet? Was her killer that successful?
Who killed Elizabeth Short (aka "The Black Dahlia") ?
For a good discussion of her death and the suspects, go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth_S...
Reply:It was apparently a surgeon who was having an affair with her. The surgeon's son became a detective on the Los Angeles Police Department and came upon the crime's details in the cold case files. He's retired from the force and wrote a book about it.
Reply:I think that technology wasn't as advanced as it is now. Even now it would be hard to find out who killed her. Finger prints and other clues could be lost because of the amount of time that has passed. For example, if you wanted to take a finger print now, the oils that someone left when they touched the victim or her belongings could have dissappeared, leaving no chance to get a print. Besides, people clammed up when she was murdered. Matthew Gordon's family, her fiance's family, distanced themselves from the murder. Plus it didn't make things easier when people falsely confessed to the crime.
