The Leopold and Loeb case was the first true murder case I ever read a book about. I was 12 or 13 at the time. I am 65 now and I still don't understand the concept of murdering to see how it feels, for the thrill of it, to show you're smarter than anyone. Thank-you for honoring their victim, Bobby Franks.

I used to work in a cemetery in Connecticut years ago and that mounded over building is a holding vault for people who died in the winter and had to wait until the spring thaw to open up the ground. Out of experience we used to dig in the winter using a ground warmer 3’ x 8’ with propane torch attached. I have seen the frost in the ground go down 4 feet when the temperature remained below zero degrees Fahrenheit.for a week straight.

I read the story on Bobby Franks many years ago, and it was so sad. To kill a young boy, just to see what it was like to murder, is so despicable. Two spoiled useless little rich boys, bored and nothing to do , but ruin a families life, and take a life. I believe it was Clarence Darrow who was the Lawyer, he was famous for getting people off. There are so many beautiful tombstones in that cemetery, and much history. The mother, and daughter was so sad. Thank you so much.

Many years ago my mother told me a story that her parents (who ran a regional newspaper in Wisconsin and were involved in business concerns in Chicago) had run in some of the same circles as the families of the Leopold and Loeb had. The gossip was that both families had been devastated by what their children had done and the Leopold family blamed the ill health of Nathan Sr suffered from on the stress of living with what his son did. He died a couple of years after the murder.

One of the father's died shortly after his son's conviction, another father, died a few years later. Within 5 years, all of their fathers were dead. Leopold's brothers, changed their last name, thus, not to identify with their brother.

More Civil war generals are buried here than any other cemetery in the country, my personal favorite memory of Rosehill happened while I was working Public Safety at Edgewater Hospital directly east of the cemetery, ( Dr Mazel, who founded Edgewater is buried at Rosehill) One night the Chicago police were chasing a subject in a stolen car, the individual pulled up to the Foster Street wall of the cemetery, jumped on the roof of the car, and into the cemetery, the dogs were called out and the cemetery searched, the dogs reacted to a group of bushes and the fearless boys of Foster Ave leaped into the brush to apprehend their man... And got hosed by a whole family of skunks! The affected officers showed up at Edgewaters ER begging for help, the doc on duty was a city boy with no clue about how to help them so I took charge I sent them to a fire exit stairwell at the bottom of which was the physical therapy departments tub room, I went to the kitchen and got all of the tomato juice they had I had the cops bag their uniforms and took them to the incinerator the cops soaked down with the tomato juice and showered then we gave them scrubs and sent them on their merry way!

I rewatched this episode. I first watched it 8 months ago. I like how you mix in good stories about important things people did so that it isn't all only about something crime related. It is a healthy balance. 9:58 The 5 arches. I love that. I have 5 arches on my patio done the same way but in brick (and round arches, not Gothic). Something my Mom and I dreamed of for many years that we designed into the plans for my house in Warner Robins. I have pics of it on my Facebook page pinned to the top. I was also inspired from my trip to Florence, Italy, in summer of 2014 (business trip). I incorporated many changes into the designs of my house plans (lots of arches),...built in 2015. That tree, train, train tunnel sculpture was so unique. So interesting to hear the history on that man. The deer wildlife were beautiful. Still young enough to be sporting spots on its coat. Those two criminals always creep me out. I remember a Hitchcock movie which echoed the story. 22:58 Look at the dead eyes that creep has. No feeling. No remorse except that he got caught. Like there is no thought at all of anyone but himself. Eyes are the windows to the soul. Wretched mind behind those eyes. I wonder if these creeps' parents were just as creepy as them or did they have enough sense to be horrified at the evil their sons unleashed. I wonder was it a case of the apple not falling far from the tree or were these creeps born without a conscience. So glad people are paying respects to this family who endured such tragedy. They carried that pain all the years of their lives. 26:26 Such a beautiful statue of mother and baby at the end of the video. Only thing is, I bet his first wife wonders why he didn't commission a statue to her and her two kids. 😬 My favotite part is all the many folds in the fabric and how the sculptor turns stone into such an amazing masterpiece.

Hi , Mr. Leopold was released in 1958 and moved to Puerto Rico ,were he died in 1972 . Nietzsche eventually went insane I studied Philosophy in University and some of Nietzche's work was novel , but the hard core Nietzsche students used to creep me out . Leopold and Loeb were just cowards. Picking on a 14 year old boy ! Why not pick on someone their own size ? Why choose Bobby Frank's. ? I don't think that question was ever answered. The orginal kid you talked about , I remember the story how the three boys were supposed to see a movie and they got picked up by the monster that murdered them and sexually assaulted them . He did unspeakable things to them while they were alive . Question : Are there woods near the cemetery or are those the deer only deer there ? It's almost like they don't mind the car traffic or the people. I recognized the sculpture of lady ( stone ) made in Italy . You don't find that degree of detail in the US at the time of the deaths . Wealthy families had sculptures imported monuments from Italy back in the early 1900s . But this cemetery contain plenty of art. Mr. Volk's sculpture, had a piece of iron sticking out of the armpit , there is probably more in the sculpture, it acts like a skeleton for the sculpture. Too bad you could not get into the underground area connected to the chapel. May be you might be able to speak with the cemetery administrators and they will let you take a tour ? Cheers.

Up near the corner of what is now Western and Peterson, there was a tavern at the top of a hill. It was owned by a guy named Roe. When folks wanted a drink they'd go to Roe's hill instead of calling it a tavern or saloon. Note it was still very rural and a good distance from Chicago. Allan Pinkerton is buried at Rosehill too.

I would guess Peter's parents/ family moved away at some point and that's why only Peter is buried there next to a blank spot for more names on the marker.

I just started watching your channel and so far I am enjoying the stories behind the graves. But I am wondering if you have any footage of other people who are buried in Rosehill like Sears, Shedd, Montgomery Ward, Brickhouse, Schwinn, Hinkley and Schmidt?

I think it would be wonderful if you found and did a story on Curtis Hansen. He died in the North Chicago VA Hospital. The ATF had to take a picture of his grave marker for Herb Holetz to come to Chicago for the Peterson Schluster trial. Curt was a "Hitman" for Jimmy Catuara
@FacesoftheForgotten3 жыл бұрын
you and I chatted about that. I actually put a private investigator on it, I told him what you told me that he died up at the VA, up north shore. no luck. I actually paid money! dead ends. If you have any more, let me know...I want to go to his grave and tell some of the stories in your awesome book....like when you first arrived at his "complex", the food, the pool, the parties, etc. he was a fat guy! (then I could plug your book on the video, which I have no problem doing...I just need his grave location)

Beautiful cemetery. I don't think I've seen any like this yet. Heartbreaking stories especially the little boys. I can say this is the first time I've seen deer on any cemetery videos. That was pretty cool. Thank you for the stories

I wonder if there was a pandemic or even just a local hot spot for a certain disease during the time period of mother and daughter. The reason why I say that is becajse the close proximity of the dates of death. Or little child due to illness and mama had died due to childbirth/pregnancy related illness of a potential 2nd child. These are some of the thoughts and what happened

D3 grave marker cleaner would really do wonders for the monument with the train car. It would make it look brand new and wouldnt damage it. This was a great video, Ron!
