I've now programmed this into a function key->

Ben was with Catherine the night of Laura's death.  

Of course, this doesn't mean that Leland was Laura's father.

If we're going to debate the Laura's father issue, you have to first
consider whether Laura knew who her true father was when she said, 
"My father killed me."  (There's also the possibility that "my father"
refers to BOB-- BOB's victims were apparently his "children.")
