The history of criminal offense in Pennsylvania is documented in this
book, beginning with a general survey of crime in the state and then
focusing on its headline cases. Included are Philadelphia and Pittsburgh
mob activities, the 20-year hunt for killer Ira Einhorn, the murder of
Philadelphia-area schoolteacher Susan Reinert, the Freeman teenagers in
Allentown who stabbed their parents to death, and the tragic shootings
at the Nickel Mines Amish school.
