Items related to Three Boys Missing: The Tragedy That Exposed the Pedophilia...
On October 16, 1955, three grade-school boys went to downtown Chicago by bus to see a movie. They never returned. Two days later, after a massive hunt for the boys by hundreds of police officers and detectives, their bodies were found, naked, beaten, and bloodied. The mystery of what happened to them would not be resolved until 40 years later – and 41,000 police interviews -- after an FBI informant’s statement led to the arrest and eventual conviction of a sexual-deviant-turned-triple-murderer.

From the Publisher:
On October 16, 1955, three young boys were murdered in Chicago, Illinois. This true crime account details the police investigation that spanned 40 years. While this story is heartbreaking, it is an important one to tell. Their murderer molested hundreds of boys before being brought to justice. This tragedy is about more than the lost lives of three boys. It awoke us to the prevalence of pedophilia in our society and raises our awareness of the horrible people who prey on our children everyday. If we choose not to learn from these lessons, history will continue to repeat itself.
From the Back Cover:
Advance Praise for Three Boys Missing
"This excellent true crime book is also a superb police thriller that ranks with the likes of Joseph Wambaugh and Vincent Bugliosi. It's a fascinating page-turner, a story that had to be told by the man who was there. James A. Jack knocks a home run with his first time at bat. Highly recommended."
