520    In 1924, University of Chicago students Nathan Leopold and
       Richard Loeb were young, rich, and looking for a thrill. 
       The crime that came next--the brutal, cold-blood murder of
       14-year-old Bobby Franks--would come to captivate the 
       country and unfold into what many dubbed the crime of the 
       century. As the decades passed, the mythology surrounding 
       the unlikely killers continued to capture the interest of 
       new generations, spawning numerous books, 
       fictionalizations, and dramatizations.  In The Leopold and
       Loeb Files, author Nina Barrett returns to the primary 
       sources--confessions, interrogation transcripts, 
       psychological reports, and more--the kind of rare, pre-
       computer court documents that were usually destroyed as a 
       matter of course. Until now, these documents have not been
       part of the murder's central narrative. This first-of-its-
       kind approach allows readers to view the case through a 
       keyhole and look past all of the stories that have been 
       spun in the last 90 years to focus on the heart of the 
       crime.
