Reseña del libro "Murders, Mysteries, and Misdemeanors in Northern California (en Inglés)"
Northern California has a fascinating criminal history. Some of America's most infamous criminals and outlaws lived and died in the area, including John Paul Chase, partner of Public Enemy Number One, Lester Baby Face Nelson Gillis. Others have come from far afield to exploit the opportunities of Californian crime. Englishman Charles Boles, AKA Black Bart the Poet, was only one of many.With crime, naturally, comes punishment. In 1937, the Folsom Five tried to escape, murdering Warden Clarence Larkin in the process. Instead of escaping Folsom, they entered California's history as the first men to die in its new gas chamber the next year. The legendary Battle of Alcatraz ended in bloodshed and recriminations from prison staff and convicts alike, with accusations that staff needlessly endangered convicts' lives and arranged the wrongful execution of convict Sam Shockley.Northern California may not be as well-known for its crime as Southern California, but it's a fascinating part of the Golden State's history all the same.
