1.

Ninety years before Maurine, Jefferson Davis studied the same texts in the same cla.s.srooms.

2.

Jennings had been a notorious train robber in the late 1890s. After serving five years in prison, he worked on silent-film Westerns and later ran for governor of Oklahoma.

3.

The nicknames had nothing to do with Kitty's alleged crime. They simply made for good headlines.

4.

Maurine never named her tough West Side gunman, but it may have been Myles O'Donnell (of the West Side O'Donnells), who was shot three times in November of 1924 but survived.

5.

Photographs of the suspect in her revealing attire had to be cropped at the collarbone to run in Friday's newspapers.

6.

The story inspired a leering cartoon strip in the next edition. "Harry has bought some booze-some red wine-prophetically red, like blood. Al is forgotten-shoved into the discard," a caption read, under a drawing of a giddy, tipsy Harry and Beulah in the midst of undressing.

7.

Her given name was Isabella and her nickname Sabella, yet most of the papers insisted on calling her Sabelle.

8.

The Los Angeles Times dramatically undercounted Chicago's murderesses. One hundred two husband-killers alone were tried in Cook County between 1875 and 1920. Sixteen were convicted, nine of them African American.

9.

Wanda, like William Scott Stewart before her, graduated from the John Marshall Law School.

10.

The inmates were allowed to use makeup only on days they appeared in court.

11.

Maurine could be rather careless with names. It took her more than a month to spell Harry Kalstedt's name correctly. She also initially flubbed Belva Gaertner's and Walter Law's names.

12.

The $350 rent they paid when they moved into the Temple Building in 1925 is comparable to more than $4,000 eighty years later.

13.

Nor were Alvin Goldstein and Jim Mulroy of the Chicago Daily News. Their dogged detective work would lead to valuable evidence, for which they would be awarded a Pulitzer Prize.

14.

It's possible that they missed it, as the Leopold-Loeb case pushed Maurine's story back to page 4. The Daily News and the Hearst papers managed to find places on their front pages for Belva, even with banner headlines devoted to the Franks killing.

15.

Roxie Hart was the name of a woman who'd been involved in an extramarital affair gone awry near Maurine's hometown when Maurine was in high school. Roxie's boyfriend murdered a man in an attempt to keep the affair a secret, leading to a trial that was widely reported in Indiana.

16.

The raves may have helped. There's no record of the play jury offering comment on Chicago.
