An Unspeakable Crime: The Prosecution and Persecution of Leo Frank by Elaine Marie Alphin

dark emotional informative reflective sad fast-paced

5.0

Book is written for YA audience. It is very sad case where a young girl was brutally attacked and murdered and a Jewish man didn’t receive a fair trial. Prosecution was biased and just wanted a quick conviction. If DNA testing was available back then, it would’ve helped a lot too. The book has photos and graphics. It is well-researched and has reference list of people involved, timeline, sources and recommended books for further reading in the back.
