American Antiquity Article
editThis piece should be updated to reflect a piece written by Alison Rautman and Todd Fenton in the April 2005 issue of American Antiquity. They describe data from the 1989 excavations that indicate that all five bodies had repeated blows to the head by a heavy sharp object such as an ax, as the cause of death. There was no evidence of gunshot wounds in any of the bodies. Packer's story that he shot one of the others in self-defense doesn't hold up.
Further Music
editThere's also "The Alfred G. Packer Memorial Cafeteria Theme Song" by Peter Thiesen, which can be found here (and quite possibly more). I'm not sure if it's relevant enough for the article, though. ~2025-33145-75 (talk) 23:07, 25 November 2025 (UTC)
