And I had not heard anything about the Michelle Mitchell murder as the Reno newspaper was usually an Evening one. At least, the one we got. Reno Gazette-Journal - Wikipedia

Some of the others would be questioned in Michelle's murder. I was not. And police started looking into whether or not the victim had been involved with drugs, prostitution, gambling, etc.
We had a police officer who tried to help by speaking to the class but made things worse IMHO by dragging us into the sordid history of Thomas L. Bean.
