  Worse still, Alanna Nash reveals the reason why Parker came to the US in the first place: very probably to escape arrest for bludgeoning a woman to death in Holland. She also uncovers the irony of Colonel Tom Parker's exalted military title: not only did he acquire it in a cynical transaction, but he also turns out to have been a military deserter who was then subsequently certified as psychopathic.
