When I was 7

This murder happened 2 houses away from me when I was 7. I still remember Mr. Bill walking down my street with that baseball bat, and the screams we heard that night, only to wake up with police and media all over the street. I'm 26 now and I'm going for Private Investigator, I am using this book and my memories for a report for class. This book goes into great detail and is very helpful. This is one of the best true crime books I've read.

A worthwhile read

This is one of my favorite true crime books. I really like the author's style of interviewing the key attorneys, investigators, and other key players in the book and letting them tell the story in their own words. Sometime it is a bit hard to follow, due to all of the different narration. However, it is on my top 10 best true crime books due to the detail that the author puts into the book. I wonder how long it took him to write it. You feel like you are there, watching the action unfold in New Orleans.

Should be called the Baseball Bat Killers

This is a strange story, to put it mildly. According to a coroner, Janet might have lived if Kerry and his buddy hadn't sat around and discussed what story to tell. The coroner said that while there was a lot of blood, it was an air embolism that killed her.Dr. Henry Lee's testimony was terrific, logical and easily understood. Of course it helped the prosecution that the jury liked Dr. Lee.
