Usually informed sources in Wyoming have confirmed rumors among investigative reporters that the police have been exploring new evidence, possibly leading to homicide charges against Donald Graham for the murder of media tycoon, Katherine Meyer Graham. Police will neither confirm nor deny that an investigation had been underway for months.
From sources who would speak only under the condition of anonymity, the outline of this shocking story has surfaced.
According to these sources, persons well-connected to The Washington Post were privy to concerns which Mrs. Graham had expressed in regard to her strange son, Donald. For years, according to these sources, Donald Graham would lock himself in his living quarters and watch Richard Widmark movies. Few people were aware of Donald’s obsession, and Mrs. Graham tried to shield him from curious acquaintances.
Nevertheless, it was known by some that strange “cackling” sounds could be heard streaming from within Donald’s personal digs. To at least one person who actually heard the sound, it had a “crazy” quality that chilled him. It reminded him of the character, Renfield, in Dracula (the Bela Lugosi version). Others claimed that its quality was more crisp than that of the Renfield character.
When expert opinion was sought by one anonymous newshound in regard to the Richard Widmark films that might contain “cackling” sounds, the number one choice was Kiss of Death. Therefore, it seemed to be a good bet that in this film there was hidden some meaningful clue which might have the power to explain the mysterious death of Katherine Graham.
What was it? Were the Wyoming authorities already aware of it and proceeding apace?
People who knew the Grahams well have commented on the charming way that Donald would sneak up on his mother, grab her in a hug, and kiss her, saying, “Kiss of Donnie!" The general view was that she was very lucky to have such a loving son.
None of the Graham acquaintances nor any of the leading figures at The Washington Post would comment on the persistent rumors of a family cursed with insanity over three or four generations.
If this matter was to be investigated by authorities, the Wyoming police would take the lead, but at this point in time they were saying nothing.
