The police dogs followed Ronette's trail back to the boxcar. Laura's half of the heart was there. I haven't heard any definitive proof that Laura was there. I can't remember if the police have gotten the forensics back on the boxcar yet. Somehow, though, that heart got there. If Laura didn't bring it there, I'm curious who did. With regards to the heart, Laura's half was on a gold chain. James' half was on a leather thong. The police said they wanted to know who had the other half. It was Donna who assumed that they thought the murder had it. She may have had an ulterior motive, but I doubt it. BTW, where did all this talk of Satanic cults come from? I don't remember any details pointing in this direction. The same goes for the idea that Truman did it. This isn't an episode of "Murder, She Wrote", so in the end after we have dug through all of the red herrings, I expect the murder to be more simple than people expected. After a crying policeman and a sorrow filled school, I'm hopping for a solution that is just as realistic. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. . .
