Finished this morning and just want to say that this is a great book. This has been on my shelf for at least 10 years and do not ask me why. No idea why I did not pick it up to read sooner. So glad I read this cause it was well written. (I feel sorry for the author because I only know Vincent Buglosi wrote it but I assume he told it and the real author wrote it?
Highly recommend this old fashioned good true crime book but you have probably already read it ages ago. ;).

2686 Till Death Us Do Part: A True Murder Mystery, by Vincent Bugliosi with Ken Harwitz (read 22 Dec 1994) This is a 1978 book on the murder on Dec 11, 1966, of Henry Stockton and the murder of Judy Pallido on Apr 30, 1968. The prosecutor writes the book, so we know he wins. Henry's wife, Sandra, and Judy's husband, Alan, are convicted of first degree murder on purely circumstantial evidence: they did it for the insurance. I did not think it was too worthwhile reading this, though the legalese is sound, of course. I read Bugliosi's more dramatic Helter-Skelter on Mar 6, 1977 ( )

This is about criminal trials in Los Angeles.
