I'm going to be brave and try to take this one on since I just finished the Fred J. Hart page who also was in this business. I think this will be pretty quick to rewrite, not as much is known about Drown other than the case against her. If anyone has anything to add, please do so here on the talk page.

All done - super interesting! I would love to sit and read the court transcripts from the two trials and the University of Colorado tests. What is missing is anything about her early life, city in Colorado where born, what happened to her children. Cynthia was in prison but I didn't see for how long, one said three years, another written after the trial said she was in till April, so that would just be a few months. That would be good to add. Aldo photos, I got nothing. There were photos of the inside of the clinic when it was raided, but nothing of any of the people involved, that is such a shame. The dates were a bit confusing, as there were two trials. I also found one article setting the court date for 64 but no mention of why it was postponed till 66. I know that Drown died in 65 but I didn't see anything about if that was a sudden illness or if they put off the trial because she was so frail. I would love to have seen some accounts of Drown's thinking and that of her daughter and employees. They had to know that it was fake, they were making the devices in the clinic. Anyway, still more to do if someone wants to attempt it. As usual I'll keep this page on my watchlist for a bit and probably remove it, so please contact me directly if needed.
