Title: Robert Manley Description: Robert Manley, the prime suspect in the Black Dahlia case, who was cleared after providing a convincing alibi for the night of the murder, is shown with his wife, Harriet Manley and who also believed that he had nothing to do with the death of Elizabeth Ann Short (1924-1947), called the Black Dahlia because of her raven hair, a sobriquet created by newspapermen following her murder (she was never known by that name during her lifetime); Short's gruesome January 15, 1947 murder in Los Angeles was never solved; her body was mutilated and severed, found in an empty lot; contrary to current claims, she was not a prostitute; several films were loosely based upon this baffling case, but none shed any real light on the actual killer or even the motivation for the slaying.
