Simon Baatz Libros

    Simon Baatz, profesor de historia legal, se sumerge en un sensacional escándalo de principios del siglo XX que cautivó a Nueva York. Su obra se centra en el asunto de Evelyn Nesbit y el asesinato de Stanford White, basándose meticulosamente en relatos de periódicos contemporáneos en lugar de memorias posteriores y menos fiables. Este enfoque proporciona la narrativa más precisa de los eventos, destacando la naturaleza perdurable del comportamiento depredador de hombres poderosos, un tema que resuena con problemas contemporáneos.

      The 1924 murder of a child in Chicago by affluent college students Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb, driven by a desire for thrill, shocked the nation. Their belief in their intellectual superiority led them to think they could evade capture. Upon their arrest, state's attorney Robert Crowe aimed for the death penalty, but the families enlisted renowned defense attorney Clarence Darrow. This case became one of the most sensational trials in American history, raising profound questions about morality, justice, and the influence of wealth.
