The Devil I Know: My Haunting Journey With Ronnie Defeo And the True Story Ofthe Amityville Murders
“His body, bloated and waterlogged, had been found floating on Long Island’s south shore several months earlier. But a recovered body, as I had observed countless times, gives little comfort to a grieving family if all the other circumstances of death remain shrouded in mystery. When the questions surrounding a child’s death go unanswered, families seek information like starving people seek food: with blind desperation. The only kind of comfort left to them is knowledge—“closure,” as it’s often ...referred to. But the wounds don’t ever close. They just get filled in bit by bit, answer by answer. The families may hope these wounds will heal, but in their hearts, they simply crave whatever fact, whatever truth, they can acquire. Because at the end of the day, it’s at least better than guessing. You accept whatever bits and pieces might provide the illusion of someday making you whole again.
