#1 On June 14, 1962, the stock market fell sharply for the fourth consecutive day. However, this was nothing compared to the scene in Boston that day, as Commander Alan B. Shepard, Jr. , the nation’s first astronaut, received a New England Aero Club award and was guest of honor on Boston Common.
#2 Mrs. Slesers, a divorced woman, had come to Boston with her son and daughter in 1950 as a displaced person from Latvia. She had spent the day shopping and preparing a frugal dinner for herself and wait for her son Juris, who would come by at seven o’clock to drive her to memorial services.
#3 At 7:45 p. m. , Juris, a research engineer at the M. I. T. Lincoln Laboratories in suburban Lexington, drove up to his mother’s apartment and knocked on the door. He hadn’t wanted to take her to the services, but she had pleaded with him, so he had agreed.
#4 When Officers Benson and Joyce arrived at the scene, they found the body of a woman named Anna Slesers, who had committed suicide. She had been depressed, and had hanged herself on the corner of the bathroom door with the cord of her bathrobe.
