SUMMARY:Rochester's Rich History: Nightmare in Rochester: The Double-Initial Murders
DESCRIPTION:In 1971\, Rochester\, N.Y. began to suffer a series of hideous 
 murders\, cases that offered the starkest of contrast between good and 
 evil: perfectly innocent victims\, perfectly evil predators. The three 
 victims were little girls\, each named with the same first and last 
 initial. Each\, the legend said\, had been dumped in a town that also began 
 with that letter. The victims were last seen in an urban setting and their 
 lifeless bodies were found along a rural roadside\, strangled by ligature. 
 Local girls with alliterative names were on high alert and told to be 
 vigilant. No one wondered why the initials were important\, what it all 
 meant. They understood one thing: it was terrifying. Join acclaimed author 
 Michael Benson to learn more about these horrific events as he discusses 
 his recent book\, Nightmare in Rochester: The Double-Initial 
 Murders.\n\nMichael Benson was born in Rochester and raised in Chili. 
 Today\, he is one of the world’s most popular true-crime writers. His 
 books—including Nightmare in Rochester\, Betrayal In Blood\, Killer Twins 
 and The Devil at Genesee Junction—tell vividly of heinous criminals\, 
 their tragic victims\, and the clever and stalwart lawmen who bring them to 
 justice. On TV\, he was recently seen on ABC’s 20/20 and is a regular 
 commentator on the Investigation Discovery (I.D.)\, Oxygen\, and HLN 
 channels. He has appeared on Murder in the Family with Geraldo Rivera\, 
 Inside Evil with Chris Cuomo\, People Magazine Investigates\, Evil Twins\, 
 and Evil Kin.Benson has a B.A. with honors in Communication Arts from 
 Hofstra University. He is the winner of an Academy of American Poets 
 award\, and was in 2016 named a Wheatland-Chili High School Graduate of 
 Excellence.
