Photo of the spool of tape that recorded Barbara Graham's "ALIBI" and typed transcript held by Deputy District Attorney J. Miller Leavy. These are the tape recordings, and the typewritten transcripts from the recordings, which were revealed at the trial. Recordings are of a conversation held between a police officer, who posed as a friend of the murder gang defendants, and Barbara Graham, while she was in jail awaiting trial. They tricked her into disclosing plans for a fake alibi.
