Synopsis
The murderer killed his victims, one after the other, and then vanished. These were horrific crimes committed by a psychopathic madman. Fear gripped the city. When would he strike again? Hundreds of policemen thought they had sifted through every shred of evidence, but subtle clues and corroborating evidence left behind by the real killer were overlooked. Seventeen-year-old William Heirens was eventually arrested for three of the murders. He confessed and was sentenced to three consecutive life sentences in 1946. Heirens is the longest-serving living inmate in the Illinois penal system. Now after fifty-eight-years the author has uncovered evidence that will show, with reasonable certainty, not only that someone else may have committed the murders but also the culprit's identity. This is an intriguing true story that is both fascinating and convincing. The pieces and history of this true crime puzzle will surprise even the most seasoned detective. WILLIAM T. RASMUSSEN, attorney at law, was born and raised in northern Michigan. He graduated from Central Michigan University and the Detroit College of Law. After graduating from law school, he attended George Washington University in Washington D.C.
