Brada schizophrenic school dropout and 'sneaky kid'first appeared as a squatter near Harry Wolcott's forest home. He becomes Wolcott's subject in a longterm life history on how the educational system can fail students. Wolcott's trilogy of articles based on their years of interviews were wellreceived...until he admitted to an intimate relationship with the young man who, two years after leaving his shack, returned and attempted to murder the anthropologist. The Brad Trilogy then became the focus of heated academic discussions of research ethics, validity, intimacy, and the limitations of qualitative research. Here, Wolcott presents the full story of the Sneaky Kid and the firestorm it caused. Written in Wolcott's masterful style, the case offers an ideal starting point for discussing the complex public and personal dimensions of qualitative research with students. Included as an Appendix is the complete script of Johnny Saldana's ethnodrama recounting the story in play form.
