	Film Portal This article is within the scope of WikiProject Films. This project is a central gathering of editors working to build comprehensive and detailed articles for film topics on Wikipedia. If you would like to participate, you can edit the article attached to this page, or visit the project page, where you can join the project and/or contribute to the discussion.
Stub This article has been rated as Stub-Class on the quality scale. Low This article has been rated as Low-importance on the priority scale.
Editing Guidelines Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article: If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film) For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films) When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references. Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film. Article upgrading needed: You can help! WP:IA   Stub to Start-Class Upgrading Instructions for Films Note that instructions for articles on other types of film topics within the scope of WikiProject Films are currently under development. To contribute in upgrading this stub article to Start class, the following requirements must be met: Significant intro (list the title, alternate titles, year released, director, actors starring in the film, summary of headings, etc.) Film infobox ({{infobox film}}) Picture: Consult WikiProject Free Images for freely released images from a film shoot, opening, or other relevant free image. Non-free and unlicensed images are to be avoided if at all possible, but if used should include a detailed fair use rationale. (An image is not required for start class if unavailable.) Plot summary Include cast and crew information. At least two other developed sections of information (production, reception (including box office figures), awards and honors, themes, differences from novel or TV show, soundtrack, sequels, DVD release, etc.) Categories (by year, country, language, and genre(s))  Helpful links: WP:BETTER, WP:LEAD, WP:REF, WP:WAF Once this article has fulfilled these requirements, the film can be reassessed to Start class and this template will be removed automatically.
Additional Information: This article has been checked against the following criteria for B-Class status: Referencing and citation: not checked Coverage and accuracy: not checked Structure: not checked Grammar: not checked Supporting materials: not checked To fill out this checklist, please add the following to the template call: <!-- 1. It is suitably referenced, and all major points are appropriately cited. --> |B-Class-1=yes/no <!-- 2. It reasonably covers the topic, and does not contain major omissions or inaccuracies. --> |B-Class-2=yes/no <!-- 3. It has a defined structure, including a lead section and one or more sections of content. --> |B-Class-3=yes/no <!-- 4. It is free from major grammatical errors. --> |B-Class-4=yes/no <!-- 5. It contains appropriate supporting materials, such as an infobox, images, or diagrams. --> |B-Class-5=yes/no This article may need an appropriate infobox template.

This article needs an image (preferably free) related to the subject, such as a picture of the set or a film poster. A possibility for American films from before 1964 would be a screenshot from the trailer, as these are now in the public domain. Please make sure fair use is properly observed, or the image will be removed. See WP:Films MOS for image guidelines and assistance in uploading.

Moved this content out of Palmyra Atoll, as it had gotten too big for its section and really deserved to be an article of its own. Did a huge amount of cleanup, mostly to improve wikification and remove faulty grammar or florid, non-NPOV prose. The only factual changes made were to add the author names and remove a future-tense reference to a hearing in 2006.

Also forgot to log in. The changes attributed to "192.168.0.96" are my work.

[edit] Odd conflict of interest

I note that the female suspect's trial lawyer was in fact a coauthor of this book. Does anybody know anything about this rather strange circumstance? Especially, can anyone who's actually read the book comment on whether she is treated as an innocent in the text?

Nothing strange about it, actually. As for how "Jennifer" is treated in the book, Bugliosi is realistic. You get the impression that he doubted her innocence at times. --Woohookitty^Woohoo! 08:02, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Jurisdiction?

Out of curiosity, was there every any question or special accommodation necessary to hold a trial over a crime committed in a territory without organized government? Were they simply tried in Federal court on murder charges? --Jfruh (talk) 04:33, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Yes, crimes which occur in the US but not any specific state or local jurisdiction simply default to the Federal courts. This is a special case now, but has been laid out for a very long time, since the US had quite a bit of unincorporated territory in its early history. --Nentuaby 02:49, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Buck Walker article?

This is such an extraordinary, notorious crime that I reckon Buck Walker deserves an entry on his own. There is a fair bit of information available, as well as some good photos (see especially http://starbulletin.com/2007/07/13/news/story04.html). What do others think?
