TODAY IN CRIME HISTORY

On this day in history, January 9, 1947, Elizabeth Short was last seen alive.

Ms. Short's gruesomely murdered body was discovered days later -- on January 15.  Now known forever as the Black Dahlia, her unsolved murder has been the subject of dozens of theories and books, as well as some notable movies.

A terrible way to gain notoriety.

  1. I wonder why her story fascinates us so. Many people have been murdered in similar ways but she sticks with us.
