Description
Photograph caption dated December 7, 1957 reads, "Widow shocked by news - Mrs. Peter Fabiano, widow of murdered Sun Valley beauty shop operator, shows shock, left, as she hears that total stranger confessed 'trick or treat' slaying of her husband. She continually moved her fingers, center, as she recalled plans for future she and victim made on night of his murder. At right she gestures as she describes Mrs. Joan Rabel as 'cruel and cold.'"
