Researching an old murder case

Post by lady cop »

since i am assuming you have already searched the internet, have you tried this....if your town has a courthouse, ask if they have a law library open to the public. call the law librarian and ask if they have the NORTHEAST REPORTER series ( or you may need to travel to a large law library. ) then of course the town where crime took place may have an historical society or old newspapers on fiche at the library. you may well have already done these things, i have no way of knowing. if you do find a decent law library check Corpus Juris Secundum also, and Federal Reporters if it was an appealed case.
