In Chicago, this murder case is common knowledge. I've heard recently that there is going to be a documentary about it on A&E. In addition to that, I guess there a book coming out too. I found it on the website for the publishing company. www.hphpublishing.com. The murder was of three little kids, and some crazy pedophile got them. It's terrible. Anyways, this book is about the case, I guess. They don't have any excerpts from the book, but I'm ready to read it now. It took like 50 years to get this guy.

Interesting and very sad case that I had never heard of. What do you think of people who think he was innocent? I really have no opinion one way or the other since this is the first I've heard about it but I happened to come across an article where a widow recently came forward and claims her late husband confessed to the crime. Tell me what you think:
