ICB pp. 224-254

p. 230 "Hickock said, 'Perry Smith killed the Clutters.'"  Irony at it's best!  Dick was so worried about Perry putting them in the Corner; then, Dick himself blurts out the info the detectives were so waiting to hear.  Perry was right--Dick's "'guts' were unreliable."  Throughout the book, Dick's "talk" has always been bolder than his actions (spray "hair on them walls" yet not directly killing the Clutters--instead holding the flashlight on them as Perry took their lives.).
