I went ahead and did some library microfilm research on the case regarding Lukens and a charge of delinquency of a minor. I'm hoping a good wikiwriter comes along and cleans up my changes (and does a better job at attributing my sources.)

There is potential for a separate article on Rosie Coffman and Anna Coffman (the accuser and her mother.) Both had significant criminal records after the Lukens case, including a situation in which Anna called the police and had Rosie arrested for criminal endangering and menacing. I believe this is interesting information for the historical record, and it might go some way to support the contention that Rosie Coffman was not a reliable witness/accuser, and that Lukens was being framed (a claim he made several times.)

However, I've left this information out of the article, because I fear it might put in too much subjective spin.Jimbobjoe 04:32, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
