underminers


Ms. Seltzer’s story started unraveling last Thursday after she was profiled in the House & Home section of The New York Times. The article appeared alongside a photograph of Ms. Seltzer and her 8-year-old daughter, Rya. Ms. Seltzer’s older sister, Cyndi Hoffman, saw the article and called Riverhead to tell editors that Ms. Seltzer’s story was untrue.
(thats so street to be sold out by your own blood)

unbelievably fakey first chapter here

This reminded me of a book I stumbled on once in the Chicago Public Library- a complete
sociographic history of the origins of the city's west side gangs in the early sixties.
Now that was interesting! Need to go find that again.
