In "Murder of the U.S. Attorney: Congressman Sickles' Crime of Passion in 1859," award-winning criminologist R. Barri Flowers recounts the chilling true crime story of Philip Barton Key II, the U.S. attorney gunned down by Congressman Daniel Sickles in Lafayette Square. The narrative explores Sickles' motives rooted in jealousy over his wife's affair with Key, leading to a landmark murder trial where Sickles employed a controversial temporary insanity defense, making legal history. The audiobook also features bonus content, including another historical true-crime short and excerpts from the author's acclaimed anthologies.
