From the Inside Flap

Oklahoma has had more than its share of sensational legal battles, but for the first time in one volume, attorney and historian Kent Frates reveals the facts behind six cases that helped shape the history of the state—and the nation. From bloody murders, to political scandal, to acts of domestic terrorism, Oklahoma's Most Notorious Cases captures the stories, the times, and the import of these landmark trials.Covering a time span from 1933 to 2004, Frates begins with the trial of the Machine Gun Kelly Gang for the kidnapping of a prominent oilman and ends with the convictions of Tim McVeigh and Terry Nichols for the April 19, 1995, bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in the heart of downtown Oklahoma City.Populated by a host of stranger-than-fiction characters—a Cherokee outlaw, a bloodthirsty con man, a crooked governor, and a twisted soldier, the stories reveal the cold calculation inherent in the perpetrators and the guts, guile, and tenacity required of the dedicated law enforcement professionals who brought these men and women to justice.Rounding out the six cases profiled: Thee Girl Scout Murders, The Karen Silkwood Case, The Sirloin Stockade Murders, and U.S. vs. David Hall—stories of crimes solved and unsolved and all of the turmoil and controversy that comes with such crimes.

Having co-authored two books on the OKC bombing and as an Oklahoman who lived through all of the cases presented, buying this book was a given. My only complaint is that I found myself wishing it was longer and more in-depth. I couldn't get enough. It is a fast read that moves right along with nary a dull moment. I also thought Mr. Frates did an excellent job of presenting the facts of the cases without bias or trying to steer the reader in a particular direction. Facts are facts, and this book is a fine example of why only those in a jury room are qualified to pass judgment on any given case. Highly recommended.

I grew up in Oklahoma. I was pretty young when the Stafford and Girl Scout murders occurred, but old to remember when they happened. This book, fantastically written, helped fill in the gaps between what I was allowed to know as a child and the reality, between what we heard on the news and the true story. Good job, Kent!!

Excellent book on some of the notorious crimes committed in Oklahoma. I remember some of them and found some interesting information about them. Highly recommended.

Great product and service.

I bought this for my husband at Christmas! He is an easily bored reader but he c

I gave this book as a gift to an attorney on Oklahoma who loved reading it.

I really like this one.

This was a very cursory glimpse at some of Oklahoma's most publicized cases. It was a bit jarring to see a chapter on Karen Silkwood, which seems to me to be quite a minor case particularly in contrast to the Oklahoma City bombing or the Sirloin Stockade case; admittedly, each case got a lot of publicity. There were a couple of misspellings in the book, and an Oklahoma author should know how to spell McLoud. It was a quick read which gave not all that much new information. If you're interested in any of these cases, there are better and more in-depth books than this one. I checked it out from our local library.
