A trial section is also missing. What defense did Lee try to raise? When he died, he claimed he was innocent. Is that what they said at trial? --Bertrc (talk) 19:46, 14 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
I agree. The article is missing key segments. The murders section states that the murderers did all these things as facts, but as there seem to be no surviving witnesses, how do we know? Did one of them confess?
I would expect things like: "The bodies were found and a coroner said they died of asphyxiation". Not "Lee tied a bag around their head". Etc.
Yes, the article goes straight from murders to sentencing. There's nothing about the trial or evidence; our readers don't know what the defence & prosecution cases were. The details of the murders & events preceding them are stated as fact, but without indicating how those things are known. All we have from DLL is him saying he was innocent shortly before he was executed, but was that what he said throughout? What did his accomplice Chevie Kehoe say? His article also has similar omissions. Jim Michael (talk) 09:36, 16 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
