SUMMARY
Lucretia and William Chapman were a prosperous happily married,couple in 1830s America. He was a prominent scientist; she was a dedicated mother and devoted educator. Then a dashing visitor named Lino Espos y Mina appeared at their door, claiming to be Mexican aristocracy. In reality, he was one of the most extraordinary con artists in American history. They took him in, and a month later, William died. Shortly after, authorities discovered Lucretia and Lino's affair, and they were charged with murder. Their separate trials -- each featuring sex, scandal, deception, and the striking courtroom tactics of remarkable lawyers -- produced two very different outcomes and riveted the young American nation.Wolfe, Linda is the author of 'Murder Of Dr. Chapman The Legendary Trials Of Lucretia Chapman And Her Lover', published 2005 under ISBN 9780060955953 and ISBN 0060955953.
