Crimes of the Century CLE: Ohio v. Sam Sheppard
Before O.J., there was Sam Sheppard. Marilyn Sheppard, the wife of a young, highly successful surgeon Sam Sheppard was found brutally murdered in bed. All that the detectives had to go on was a bizarre version of events by her husband. Husbands are always "suspect #1" in a murder case, and this was no exception. What followed next was a tale that included the NFL's best quarterback of that generation, a Nazi propagandist chief, Hollywood - and reached all the way to the United States Supreme Court.
Did the tabloid sensationalism of this case deny Sam Sheppard a fair trial? Did an innocent man get convicted based on tabloid fodder? This case served as the basis for our current attorney rules regarding trial publicity, and the tale is made for Hollywood. Did we forget to mention the name of Sam Sheppard's Attorney? A very young F. Lee Bailey.
