The Secret Starts To Come Out
A family friend, Evelyn Wallace, recalled one time that she saw Karen chilling in the garden. It was then that she realized that Karen’s body was nowhere near healthy. “She loved to go lay out in the sunshine. I don’t know whether it was to get a tan or get away from her mother. Anyhow, I happened to go out to the kitchen for something and I saw her out there. She just had on her little bathing suit shorts. You couldn’t tell whether it was a girl or a boy. She had absolutely no breasts,” she recounted.
