Grice walking toward the Modern Modes building
Modern Modes was a abandoned tailor shop in the New York City borough of Brooklyn. It later became the residence of small-time criminal Gerald Anthony Grice.
History[]
In the summer of 1975, Gerald Anthony Grice kidnapped and murdered six-year-old Blair Roche.
Investigating the kidnapping, Rorschach traced Grice to Modern Modes, broke in and searched the premises. He found overwhelming evidence of Grice's crime; he had dismembered the girl's body using several butcher's tools, fed her to his dogs and had burned her clothes in a small wood stove. Rorschach killed Grice's two German shepards which had been running free on the fenced-in property. Rorschach waited for Grice to return home, trapped him in the house and set fire to it. Grice did not survive.[1]
