Description
A note sent to Karyn Kupcinet before her murder in her Hollywood apartment reads "You may die without nobody, winner of loneliness wants death until one someone special cares." The note, on a loose-leaf sheet of ruled paper, was made with paste-ups of newspaper clippings, and looks like a "ransom" note. Kupcinet, an aspiring actress, and daughter of Chicago columnist Irv Kupcinet was killed on November 30, 1963.
