This is an accuracy detail that I noticed: When Odessa and Miriam are driving in town and Miriam they notice the policeman closely following them, Odessa says to just slow down some and they should leave her alone, which is what happened. In Mrs. Durr's statements on page 224 she tells that police were cracking down on carpool drivers for going two miles over the speed limit. Odessa was very aware that this was what was happening, not just that the police wee being suspicious. -Whitney Holcomb | This is an accuracy detail that I noticed: When Odessa and Miriam are driving in town and Miriam they notice the policeman closely following them, Odessa says to just slow down some and they should leave her alone, which is what happened.
