Editing Ed Gein (section)

===Suspected===
In addition to the murders of Hogan and Worden, Gein was also considered regarding several other unsolved cases in Wisconsin.{{sfn|Schechter|1989|p=95}}{{sfn|Schechter|1989|p=100}} In November 1957, authorities confronted Gein with a list of missing persons cases that had occurred between the death of his mother and Worden. Their suspicions were further aroused after the discovery of Hogan's remains. However, [[lie detector test]]s exonerated Gein of any other murders, and his psychiatrists concluded that his violence was only directed to women who physically resembled his mother.{{sfn|Schechter|1989|p=105}}{{sfn|Schechter|1989|p=177}}
