Friday I talked to WBOC’s Delmarva Life about the dark underside of history, the subject of a program hosted by the Wesley College Parker Library on Tuesday evening, Feb. 22, 2021.

This Delaware Humanities talk, “CSI: The Historical Edition,” considers some of the most disturbing, mysterious crimes from yesteryear, as it examines how lawmen from another era solved murders (or didn’t solve) their most horrendous cases.

Before the arrival of the modern age, an eyewitness or a “smoking gun” were usually what lawmen had to rely on as they struggled to bring a killer to justice.
