Abstract

In the following pages an actual discourse on murder is presented: The Levin-Chambers case, a widely publicized case of sexual assault in New York City. The conversation takes place between a mother (M), a father (F), and a daughter (D). The discourse is verbatim and took place in the home. The discourse was recorded openly by a student-experimenter, with the full knowledge and consensus of the participants. The student-experimenter freely participated in the conversation.

See footnote 63.
