Description
Discusses the surge of murders by women in Chicago in 1924, highlighting the killers who inspired the play "Chicago" and its subsequent movie and musical adaptations, and introduces girl reporter Maurine Watkins who became embroiled in the cases and dedicated herself to exposing the tendency of the all-male juries to go easy on women--especially the pretty ones.
