Before File Photos & Getty Images


Elvis'es Cousin?


In the old days reporters used to actually go the scene of the crime, take notes and crime scene photos. Now reporters just wait for the data to come in, change a few words around, add a stock image (or whatever photo is released to the media) and poof your done.

This isn't South Evanston. But this is a very unusual photo. You never know what you will find for sale on E-bay.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS: This is an original 1972 35mm negative strip containing 3 images. The folder the negatives were originally archived in contained the following identification information: August 24, 1972 At 1921 Harrison street Evanston, IL. Dan Miletic, a janitor who found the body of a 14 year old boy induffel bag inside the garbage recepticle.
