Jerald Tanner was shown the Salamander Letter early on and considered it a fake. Jerald and Sandra Tanner's book is available as a PDF or hard copy.
http://www.utlm.org/onlinebooks/trackingcontents.htmThis book, "The Mormon Murders" by Gregory White Smith and Steven Naifeh is excellent in documenting the detective work that went into solving the crimes. The authors note in their acknowledgments of the contributions of over 200 people connected in some way to the case, that Shannon Flynn and Tom Wilding refused grant interviews to them without payment. The authors were unwilling to set that precedent
Also, the Church authorities answered their routine questions but "universally denied [the authors] substantive interviews".

Larson, author of "By His Own Hand Upon Papyrus", "Destroying Angel", and "Numismatic Forgery", was Mark Hofmann's prison guard at the Utah State Prison. He reported that he played chess with Mark and that Mark was very "bored" in prison as he had no one intellectually equal to him to interact with. Poor baby.
