On January 15th, 1947, the mutilated body of Elizabeth Short was found in Leimert Park, a public space located in South Los Angeles. Someone had performed an hemicorporectomy, the act of cutting a body in half at a specific point of the body. The woman who first spotted the body out in the open thought it was a mannequin, mostly because the skin color was so pale, a result of Short’s fluids and blood being completely drained from her body. In this Anniversary edition we speak with case expert Steve Hodel, a retired detective with the Los Angeles Police Department. Not only is Hodel entrenched in the case, he also has a personal connection.

Steve Hodel-- I have the UNRRA transcript and complete file on George Hodel. Nowhere on the UNRRA application, filled out by George in 1945, does he list 'sole surgeon at a logging camp' --not anywhere. Not under prior work history or experience summary. Thankfully--he does admit to a history of having a bad heart as early as 1942. He was rejected by the Army and Navy for this condition and eventually had to sign a liability waiver in order to 'work'--This bad heart history would preclude him entirely as a "killer" of anyone. And definitely not the killer of Elizabeth Short. The 1950 bugging transcripts clearly show George fighting to breathe, gasping, and unable to get medical insurance for his failing heart and walk from one room to the next without losing breath entirely. He was no killer as he was physically challenged. The pictures you continue push as that of Elizabeth--are not. Elizabeth's family say the pictures are not her. Your continued push to make this a reality is causing further harm to the Short family and borderline exploitative. George was a pedophile. It begins and ends there. George was not friends with Man Ray. This is all a hoax and wishful thinking. You solved nothing. That will be your legacy. This and the embarrassing publication of BDAIV. If your brother Duncan were alive ( George's favorite) --he'd dispute and provide facts to your fantasy claims.
