The Cowardly Murder of Sami Sidhom

A young man on his way home from a football game finds himself confronted with a choice. Take the short path and walk through a situation that gets out of control fast or take the long path and avoid the situation completely. He makes the right choice- only fate has other ideas. The situation and him collide and he is left fighting for his life- having done nothing wrong. Someone chose to involve him, and to take his life.

The Grimes Sisters Murders /// Part 2 /// The Suspects

The night of December 28th, 1956 was expected to be a typical Friday night in Chicago. On that night, like most Friday and Saturday nights, Archer Avenue was a hot bed of activity.
