Publisher Description: With almost one murder every day of the year in Indiana, violent crime is not a stranger to the Hoosier state and has not escaped the heartland of America. And while Indiana is the nation's sixteenth largest state by population, it has often stolen national headlines with astonishing crimes that defy imagination. It seems it always has been so. Notorious 92 looks back to crimes in each of the state's 92 counties as old as the nineteenth century to reveal a side of the state's history not taught in fourth grade history classes. Notorious 92 also considers the suffering and the resolve of Indiana families and communities in responding to ugly incidents in their midst that are sometimes just too incredible not to talk about. From marital and financial problems to substance abuse and racial hostilities, generations of Hoosiers are linked by not only the lands they inhabit, but by the demons they face. |
