Shocking Cases from Dr. Henry Lee's Forensic Files ─ The Phil Spector Case / the Priest's Ritual Murder of a Nun / the Brown's Chicken Massacre and More!

Lee (forensic science, U. of New Haven) and Labriola (former pediatrician, lecturer, and author) offer five true crime stories. What makes this book more interesting than many in the genre is that Lee's experience in forensics also gave him an ability to observe acutely and recount his observations in great detail. Some of the stories here include the Phil Spector murder case, the brutal murder of a nun in an Ohio church, and the genocide in Bosnia-Herzegovina.
