I remember reading that they said unlike the movie they were not lesbians. I always wonder if that was true or was it just an intense friendship 👀

[kawaiiairbender]

obviously, it could have been that. But i feel like sometimes people think things only get intense or all consuming in sexual/romantic relationships. And that's just not true.

[genbu_no_miko24]

Yeah I agree. Especially given their ages....kids/teens can extra ride or die with anything at the age.

...They committed murder in this case :|

They both deny it but they also both ended up with long-term female partners.

Oh I didn't know that.

I read a book about them a few years ago that was fascinating (Anne Perry and the Murder of the Century by Peter Graham). They wrote down a lot of their fantasy world so there was just so much evidence.
