This large "family group" stuck out like a sore thumb here, locally.They opened fortune-telling shops in the two towns abutting the crime scene. It just seemed very suspicious and out of place. I couldn't imagine how they could possibly be generating an honest income to cover the high rents in these very seasonal tourist towns.

Maine can be a very old school, provincial place. Sadly, this story will add to the distrust. What an ironic stereotype! Dishonest conmen arrived here in the form of fortune-telling gypsies!
