It's funny, I thought the initial report said that the building in which the babies' bodies were found was on South Lake Street. Ah, I guess it's at the corner of Lake and James M. Wood (and, I have to figure out why that street is named that. Has always struck me as odd; it's 9th Street!).
Huh, OK, a few clicks, and here we go: He was a

Back later; I'm working on a long post with observations on all the stuff I've found in this thread over the past couple of weeks or whatever.
