Talk:John List

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"The Trivia section says: "John List lived in Westfield." I don't get it -- what is remarkable about this?"

Only that Westfield is an upscale suburb, and most people think that rich people don't have any problems. Someone anihilating their entire family in one of these types of towns is considered shocking and unheard of. That only occurs in poorer neighborhoods <sarcasm>.

Trivia: "Usual Suspects?" Really? Are you sure? 24.131.12.228 17:45, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

"List's story bears some resemblance to that of Keyser Soze from the American film The Usual Suspects, though it is unclear if this is intentional or not." I can't think of one reason why. I've now removed it Pennywisepeter 11:38, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Merge

John Emil List doesn't actually add new information; I don't think a merge and redirect would be too controversial. Deadsalmon 08:24, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Why is Barney Tracy not mentioned?

He was crucial to the case.

[edit] Something a little personal...

My father had dated John List's daughter when he was a child. He told me that John used to chase him out of the house if he brought a guitar over because he felt that music was from Satan. He also told me that they really didnt have any furniture in the house and that John's mother was pretty much the same way when it came to religion. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Carbon star (talk • contribs) 01:20, 6 March 2007 (UTC).
