True Crime page with an African-American slant
I came across this interesting site the other day, and noticed that there was a page on "True Crime".

Interestingly, but not surprisingly, I've not heard of a lot of these TC cases:

http://www.panachereport.com/channels/hip%20hop%20gallery/TrueCrime.htm

Sadly, there is a link about Black celebrities who have died with little or no notice in the news. Quite a few AA actors whom I remember watching on TV have died, many too young. For those old enough to remember pop hits from the 1970s, for instance, the lead singer of The Sylvers ("Hotline") died at the age of 47.

:(

1. Thanks for the link
I'm sure I read a book on the Lance Herndon case....I can't remember the title. I'm not familiar with any of the others though.

Ann Rule is my favorite TC writer and I can't think of one AA case that she has covered in her books.
