Several of us have known Dennis for over 20 years. It is hard to
describe everything that makes up a person on a webpage, but here is
some information about Dennis anyway.
Independent filmmakers Richard Searls and Molly O'Neill have produced a
17 minute tape of excerpts from an interview with Dennis in prison on
22 March 2004. If all goes well, they plan to produce a quality,
independent film.
The 36 Megabyte video clip can be viewed with Apple's Quicktime (which
works on PCs or Macs) or other video viewing software. The file
is large, so this option is realistically only available for those
with broadband Internet connections. Click
here for video. Quicktime can be downloaded here.
If you want to see the entire video and want to see the VHS version,
contact Trial and Error about borrowing a copy. If you would like
just the audio from the clip, click here for the audio from the video clip. If you just
want to see Dennis' words, click here for the transcript
of the video.
From Human Sacrifice: 13 July 1988 letter from wife
Nancy, "First, I love you and I'm thinking about you. It looks like I
can't call you so you must call me collect. Do it! . . .
The prison said you cannot have visitors until you're 'checked out' and
have a Physical. They say this may take a week to 10 days . . .
Baby, you must find some serious strength in yourself to endure this. I
will make every effort to see you and talk w/ you. You are my heart and
soul. I am taking care
of myself and am doing just fine. Much love. I love you, I love you.
Nancy" (HS p. 68)
From wife Nancy at trial, [Responding to question, "During the nine
years that you've known Dennis, how close were you to him?"] "He was my
companion and best friend… In the summertime, we spent all of our time
together." [TR p 1115]
From Dennis: "When it comes to
my sex life, I would describe it as
normal. Nancy's trial testimony characterizes my sexuality well enough.
I am a gentle and respectful lover. I never, ever asked any woman to do
something she wasn't comfortable doing." (Letter 15 Feb 2003)
From wife Nancy at trial: [responding to question,
"How would you
categorize your sexual relationship with Dennis?"] "Very loving. He's a
very sensitive and gentle man." [She went on to say they she and Dennis
had sex "regularly" and there there were no "latent sexual issues
between yourself and Dennis in late June 1988" and that Dennis had
never used any kind of restraint or bondage with her during sex.] [TR
pp 1110-1111]
