No Witnesses

En savoir plus sur le livre

"No Witnesses." Those two words and the thinking behind them drove three petty thugs to become mass murderers. Their crime, which rocked the sleepy suburban Delhi Township, did, in fact, have witnesses, before and after it was committed, including the women they killed. This is the story of how top notch police work, emerging technology, and interdepartmental cooperation led to the murderers' arrests. No Witnesses was written based upon full examination of the interview tapes, the trial transcripts, and interviews of the key characters involved, including John Leigh. After being sentenced to death, the three killers' sentences were commuted to life in prison. "No Witnesses" also gives a glimpse inside the Ohio prison system, uncovering the underground markets, gangs, and characters Ohio locks away to protect its citizens. The 1994 parole hearing for John Leigh stunned the prison world: he was not to receive another hearing for 20 years. The callous murders he and his partners committed still shocked the community after 25 years. Leigh's story inside the Ohio prison system reveals more of the character that was capable of such a crime.
