Crime Buff's Guide to Outlaw Washington, DC Paperback - 2012
by Ron Franscell
From the rear cover
Washington, DC, isn't known as the District of Crime or the Murder Capital of America for nothing. Though the capital city's motto is justice for all, DC has a darker side, including an extensive history of crimes and misdemeanors, some political and some not. The Crime Buff's Guide to Outlaw Washington, DC is the ultimate guidebook to the criminal and seedy history of the nation's capital--plus Maryland, Northern Virginia, and (ironically) Arlington National Cemetery. It also contains an entire chapter pinpointing key and little-known sites in the Lincoln Assassination. With photographs, maps, directions, and precise GPS coordinates, this collection of outlaw tales serves as both a travel guide and an entertaining and enlightening read. It is a one-of-a-kind exploration into well-known and more obscure sites in DC that retain memories of bandits, corpse-snatchers, murderers, snipers, bootleggers, assassins, rogue scientists, spies, mobsters, and corrupt politicians--even a legendary serial killer dressed in a bunny suit--and their scandalous deeds.
