"Spinner Spencer had a 10 year career in the NHL. He played with brute force and instinct, his nickname "Spinner" a comment on his skating style. After finishing his hockey career, Spencer drifted into seedy obscurity - crashing with friends, dodging arrest warrants for drunken driving. Then he achieved a different kind of notoriety: On the night of January 18, 1987, he was arrested in Florida & charged with a murder that had been committed five years earlier on an isolated dirt road in West Palm Beach. The victim, a 32 year old real estate salesman named Michael Dalfo, had been shot twice in the head and left to die in a muddy clearing." Check out the scans. . 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hard Cover.
