Here are some other spin-offs from the tragedy, all of which, you’ll notice, focus on us, and none on poor Polly Klaas. I’ll provide only the lead-in; any of us can complete the story:

“In small towns and big cities alike, the innocent-looking 12-year-old’s fate drove home the disturbing message that youngsters are not safe even in their own bedrooms.”

“For some adults, the case has awakened buried memories of sexual abuse.”

“Pictured above, Winona Ryder places a stuffed teddy bear in front of the Polly Klaas Search Center, reflecting the nation’s bruised psyche.”

“Governor Wilson said he almost lost it when Linda Ronstadt sang. . . . [He] then gave a tough speech pledging to fight for laws ‘ensuring that career criminals become career inmates. . . . I mean, [he said], when I think of that son of a bitch [the man accused of Polly’s murder], you cannot help but be angered. Did you see the picture of him smirking? Jesus, boy. I wanted to just belt him right across the mouth.’”

“Klaas Suspect Has Twisted Legal System since ‘70s.”
