A story from the anthology Masters of True Crime, which spans murder cases from the beginning of the 20th century to today. This is a must-hear for fans of true crime and will also be compelling to mystery and thriller listeners.

Short True Crime Tale, Dull Narration

Adding: Schechter has a few similar Audible Plus reports available.
He minimizes use of narrative sentences and they’re appropriate, not excessively pejorative. The reader mostly refrains from inflammatory emotionality. That’s what I would like from modern journalists, just the facts.
(There’s exception to that rule. Where contemporary jargon would seem racist today, the narrator stretches and emphasizes the word to distance himself from it. I dislike this technique. I think of Fisher Steven’s reading of Mark Twain and how i quickly get over triggering effects of what is now the most offensive word in America. Times change. The way people reinterpret the past with modern sensibilities is obviously damaging. Any psychologist will agree that a “that was then, this is now” approach is healthier.)
It’s interesting that 40 detectives were instantly put on the case. You’ll hear how a combination of Sherlock Holmes and P.I. Lastrade techniques work together. Facts like these give perspective.
