Overview

Nearly Forgotten True Crimes - 7 Infamous Cases Revisited - Volume #3 The Mystery of the Secret Closet: When esteemed chemist Charles Henry Schwartz's charred remains were found in his burned laboratory, it appeared to be a tragic accident. However, the discovery that the body had been altered to conceal its identity raised questions about the true victim and the whereabouts of Schwartz. Urge to Kill: Marcus Powell, driven by an insatiable urge to kill, ruthlessly murdered at least six people, starting from the age of 15. Despite his affluent and influential family securing reduced sentences for him, they eventually disowned him. After marrying into another wealthy family, Powell's compulsion led to yet another murder, and he manipulated detectives while attempting to cover his tracks. Killer Surgeon: The recovery of a young woman's torso from a river and the subsequent finding of an older woman's severed skull led authorities to investigate two seemingly separate murder cases. However, a startling conclusion emerged from the forensic examination of the body parts. The Transcontinental Train Robbery: On November 14, 1920, the lightning-fast "Transcontinental Mail Train" halted at Council Bluffs transfer station, only to be targeted by a gang of adolescent boys. Within minutes, they discarded ten mail pouches containing a staggering $3, 158, 000 (equivalent to over $40, 000, 000 today), committing the only mistake in an otherwise flawless heist. San Francisco Terror Gang: In a span of forty-eight hours, a wave of brutality swept through San Francisco, leaving fifteen innocent victims dead or wounded. The police force launched an all-out pursuit of the murderous bandits lurking in the city's underworld, desperately seeking a breakthrough. Killer from the Mountains: George "Uncle Jimmy" Barrett, a seemingly unassuming grey-haired man, concealed a dark secret-his proficiency in car theft and his propensity for brutal killings. His path crossed with Special Agent Nelson B. Klein of the FBI, leading to a violent encounter that resulted in Klein becoming the first federal agent killed on duty, and Barrett permanently confined to a wheelchair by the agent's bullets. Riddle of the Three Rings: The mutilated remains of a young woman were discovered in a floating suitcase near a yachting club in Winthrop, Massachusetts. With limited leads, a resourceful and diligent investigation gradually unveiled the story behind this horrendous crime, raising questions about the identity of the victim and the perpetrator. Nearly Forgotten True Crimes - Volume 3 resurrects these forgotten tales, shedding light on their intricacies and offering a glimpse into a bygone era of American criminal history.
