In January 1889, as London constables hunted for Jack the Ripper and theaters around the world presented theatrical renditions of the Jekyll and Hyde story, Jackson, Michigan, Police Captain Jack Boyle searched for the murderer of Mary Latimer. This book follows Captain Boyle to the bordellos of gaslight-era Detroit—populated by madams, pimps, prostitutes and gamblers. It describes the investigation that led him to a pharmacist that prowled the streets, akin to a real-life Jekyll and Hyde. Ultimately, the book delves into the mind of Robert Irving Latimer, known as the most dangerous prisoner in Michigan and the man who inspired talk about resurrecting the state’s long-dead death penalty. PARDONABLE MATRICIDE: Robert Irving Latimer, from Michigan's "Most Dangerous Inmate" to Free Man-Tobin T. Buhk
Show Highlights: - How Tobin Buhk became involved with true crime writing and his many books on the topic. - Why we tend to look for a single explanation for why crime occurs, and how a multi-factorial approach is often rejected in favor of more peculiar theories. - Strang Circumstances covers the assassination of the “King of Beaver Island” in 1856. The leader of a Mormon sect comes to an untimely end at the hands of his enemies. - Andrew Kehoe, the “Dynamite Farmer,” becomes the perpetrator of the worst school massacre in history, in the year 1927. - The diabolical mind of Arthur Waite, a chronic liar and “Heiress Hunter” who hatches a plot to poison an entire family and inherit their fortune. - Why the true crime genre remains such a popular subject for writers, and how the “gapers block” is one explanation of our ongoing fascination with the macabre.
