"the birth control pills she was taking", in 1933?-- Grahame ( talk) 01:08, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
"She had, she testified, relented..." Firstly, there's no reason for this involuted syntax ("She testified that she had...") Secondly, and more important, this isn't what 'relented' means. PiCo ( talk) 07:52, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
Why is this at John Brownlee sex scandal when the man himself is at John Edward Brownlee? How is he normally referred to? Timrollpickering ( talk) 08:38, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
There's a couple of awkward spots.
Towards the end of the Vivian MacMillan's story section is a sentence that ends with "but continued the affair until July 5, the night of the fateful drive." Fateful drive? I searched the article for "July" and found the "drive" is mentioned three paragraphs further down in the John Brownlee's story section. Even in reading that later paragraph it's not clear why the July 5th drive was called "fateful." It seems it was public that Brownlee and MacMillan would have known each other. She lived in his house briefly. Maybe in that era a young woman was not supposed to be in a man's car at all?
The paragraph about the "fateful drive" starts out with "He acknowledged that he had been driving MacMillan around the evening of July 5, 1933, when he was followed by Caldwell and MacLean, ..." Caldwell I remembered but who is MacLean? A casual skim of the article does not reveal what his role is. I get the impression he was a lawyer presenting someone who sued Brownlee. -- Marc Kupper| talk 06:03, 27 January 2012 (UTC)
