Summary: AN EYE FOR AN EYE - A reading of Yesterday's News exploring the criminal justice system at its most extreme: Inflicting the death penalty. - - Although this episode begins with the disappearance of young Blanche Lamont, it is the body of her friend and confidante Minnie Williams that is first found in a storage room in a San Francisco Baptist Church. - But in searching for clues, police find Blanche’s brutalized corpse far up in the church’s bell tower. - The Sunday School Superintendent, a dapper but depraved medical student is charged with both murders, tried for the death of Blanche Lamont. --I don’t want to give out any spoilers, but you’ll want to stick around for the bizarre execution feast at the end. - Music by Dave Sams - www.truecrimehistorian.com/1895lamont
