Dorrian's Red Hand Restaurant - Role in "Preppie Murder"

Role in "Preppie Murder"

On the night of August 25, 1986, Robert Chambers was socializing at what was then called Dorrian's Red Hand with then girlfriend Alex Kapp. That night, Kapp broke up with Chambers, apparently due to the presence of Chambers' ex-girlfriend, Jennifer Levin. Chambers later left the bar with Levin and her dead body was found the next morning. The name "Dorrian's Red Hand" was subsequently truncated to "Dorrian's" due to the obvious negative connotations of "Red Hand" following the Levin murder.

Famous quotes containing the words role and/or murder:

    All of the assumptions once made about a parent’s role have been undercut by the specialists. The psychiatric specialists, the psychological specialists, the educational specialists, all have mystified child development. They have fostered the idea that understanding children and promoting their intellectual well-being is too complex for mothers and requires the intervention of experts.
    Elaine Heffner (20th century)

    If we Americans are to survive it will have to be because we choose and elect and defend to be first of all Americans; to present to the world one homogeneous and unbroken front, whether of white Americans or black ones or purple or blue or green.... If we in America have reached that point in our desperate culture when we must murder children, no matter for what reason or what color, we don’t deserve to survive, and probably won’t.
    William Faulkner (1897–1962)
