Usage examples of nielsen.

On cross-examination Mike Donnelly asked Nielsen to characterize his friend.

Bibulous or not, George Nielsen had been an impressive prosecution witness.

Even bareheaded, the rawboned ex-fighter and Nielsen protege seemed to wear his black hat.

Members were said to include George Nielsen, Herb Holman and Frank Gavica.

Jim Dallas, Will Dallas, Benny Damele, Rick Davidsaver, Donna Deihl, Dale Elliot, Sheri Elms, Charles Fannon, Irene and Walt Fischer, Frank Gavica, Allen Granum, Geneva and Herb Holman, Jimmie Gayle Hurley, Constance Ickes, John Hart Kennedy, Cheryl Knox, Bill Lewis, Noel McElhany, Madaline Meeks, Santy Mendieta, Charlene and Tim Nettleton, Cortland Nielsen, Tommy Ormachea, Tom Pedroli, Wanda Pense, Dee Pogue, Kathi Pogue, Stan Rorex, Deborah Ross, Jerry Sans, Lynn Schild, Norma Schafer, Sam Seals, Jennie Shipley, Sandra and Jim Stevens, Gary Strauss, Shielda Tallich, Jerry Thlessen, Connie Tol-mie, Gene Weller, Mary and Hoyt Wilson, Leland York, and certain others who have requested anonymity.

Keller Trueblood was prosecuting the murder of Spyder Nielsen when he died.

Spyder Nielsen was extravagant to the extreme in many ways, but not in this.

THE HOME OF THE MURDERED Spyder Nielsen sat on the most coveted piece of residential property in all of Pit-kin County, Colorado.

Spyder Nielsen had parlayed his ski jumping into a reputation exceeded only by his fortune, and Trudi Can-delaria, by escaping the conviction for his murder, had fallen heir to it all.

The murder weapon was a casting in bronze of a likeness of Spyder Nielsen hurtling through a racing course on skis.

If Keller had come to believe, even in the middle of his prosecution of Trudi, that Chloe Nielsen or anyone else had really committed the murder, the problem would not be solved just by getting rid of Keller.

Every bit as troubled as Robyn by their lack of real progress in resolving the murders of Spyder Nielsen and Keller, he knew they must be edging closer.

It was ten-thirty by then, forty-five minutes until he and Robyn would find their way to the liquor storeroom to meet Chloe Nielsen and the mystery man.

The impression in his mind as he sought out Robyn to go meet with Chloe Nielsen was that this was a piece, perhaps a major part, of the injustice he had been sent to set right.

And the truth is, she deserved to fry as much as her lover Spyder Nielsen deserved to die.
