The files contain Hirliman’s and Lee’s correspondence, as well as documents from the new trial after Lee’s confession, including an affidavit and witness testimony. Hirliman’s various writings on the Biker Case are included in the files. Missing from the collection is her unpublished manuscript entitled The Wrong People.
