Play now: The Mandible Claw

This week Erin tells us about the murder of Marilyn Reese Sheppard, who was found murdered in her bay village home in Cuyahoga County, Ohio. The Sheppard Murder Case was set aside by the U.S. Supreme Court on the grounds that the defendant, Sam Sheppard was not sufficiently isolated from the excessive publicity and was denied a fair trial.
