This was the book I needed, the most recent edition, still in the shrinkwrap from the publisher. It was delivered quickly. The book is a textbook, so I didn't really choose to buy it.

I'm a paralegal student at a California State University... see description |

Both boys, Darrow claimed, had experienced a compulsion to kill, and therefore, he appealed to the judge, they should be spared capital punishment. Darrow, the most famous lawyer in America, aimed to save Leopold and Loeb from the death penalty by showing that the crime was the inevitable consequence of sexual and psychological abuse that each defendant had suffered during childhood at the hands of adults. This thrilling na... see description |
