Confessed to sending letters in White Death plot
The case surrounds a man named Pollard who admitted fabricating the White Death letters and the skulls and bones used to scare clergy. He described creating the letters as a Sherlock Holmes style prank, claiming the money demands were only to enliven the mystery and that he gathered bones from Calvary cemetery. He detailed timing and his contacts, including his plan to place money in a church confession booth, and said detectives planned to let the White Knights appear.
