A True Crime Cold Case Solved By Defense Attorney's Son

  • Summary

  • A riveting account of a true crime, the criminal justice system, and unlocking a decades-old cold case: In 1964, David Miraldi's father Ray L. Miraldi was a prominent Ohio former city prosecutor and then a private attorney when he jumped at the chance to defend tavern keeper Caspar Bennett of the lurid bathtub murder of his wife, Florence Bennett, believing him to be innocent.

    Attorney Miraldi won an acquittal but oddly never spoke of this professional triumph to his family. Years later while going through his father's papers, David found some important information about the crime and subsequent trial, and began his own investigation, discovering some darker truths as detailed in his book, "The Edge of Innocence."
