Join her on Tuesday, September 3rd at 2:00pm in the Function Room at 1372 Brush Hill Rd. Fuller Village resident Loretta McLaughlin spent most of her professional life in journalism. At the end of her career, she was Editor of the Editorial Pages of the Boston Globe where she had covered medical news, politics, presidential affairs and notably the Clinton Health Care Plan.

Earlier in her career, she covered general news for the Hearst paper, the Boston Evening American. In 1962 that she became the first news person in the country to pay attention to the series of strangling of older women that were unfolding in Boston and later strangling that were marked by telltale details. Loretta named the Boston strangler, “the Boston Strangler” rather than tagging him by some other appellation. Since recent news has finally proved that Albert De Salvo was the Boston Strangler, Loretta has agreed to a timely review of the serial killings. Join her this afternoon and be amazed at some of the little known aspects of the cases. The public is invited to attend.
