Andrew Webb, featured killer in my book HEAD SHOT has been paroled. Actually, he's been out now for a couple years. He was a model prisoner, and everyone thought he was a dandy chap. One Washington State Prison employee who knew him recently contacted me and said: "Andrew told me the story of how he wound up in prison, and it sounded good. Then one day I stumbled upon your book, HEADSHOT. I read it and was stunned to find out the REAL story! His story and your story did not have much in common. Yours was true."

Whatever happen to Chris St.Pierre? Is he still in Prison? Still alive? And where does Andrew Webb live now? Work? I live in Tacoma and would like to know. I also wanted to know if the St.Pierre brothers had kids.

Burl,
I am a person that one of your books was written about. I was actually the victim of one of the crimes
and wish to remain unidentified and unfound but would like to talk to you.
