The Black Dahlia Solution
It  is the most infamous unsolved homicide in LAPD history, a murder so gruesome, yet so intriguing, it reads like a piece of fiction. This site recounts the last days of Elizabeth Short, and with a noirish style that would make even Raymond Chandler proud, it offers answers by directing amateur sleuths through the strange but true murder of Ms. Short (a.k.a. The Black Dahlia), killed in Los Angeles in 1947. The murder of the aspiring actress was never officially solved despite the fact that the police seemed to know exactly who the killer was. If a little background is necessary, study the orientation to learn the facts, ma'am. Featuring crime photos (some rather gory) and quotes from people involved in the case, the site captures the creepy mood of its subject matter. Go ahead and check it out -- a nerve-racking whodunit set in the seamy underbelly of Hollywood's golden age awaits. (in Crime) |
