5.0 out of 5 stars Someone Cry for the Children, January 13, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Someone cry for the children: The unsolved Girl Scout murders of Oklahoma and the case of Gene Leroy Hart (Hardcover)
I was a girl scout at Camp Scott when this happened, and knew one of the girls killed. This is the first time I have really found out what happened that night. I am absolutely convinced by what Michael and Dick Wilkerson had to say that Hart was responsible. I was too young to understand it then. This case has profoundly affected my life and this book gave me a bit of closure.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not Biased - last reader posting uninformed, June 9, 2002

This review is from: Someone cry for the children: The unsolved Girl Scout murders of Oklahoma and the case of Gene Leroy Hart (Hardcover)
Biggest criminal case in Oklahoma history. Acquital of a known rapist who escaped from prison to rape and murdered 3 children (while at a Girl Scout camp). DNA was not available at the time of the murders (late 70s), but a test similar to DNA was done in '89 that shown that the odds were 3 in 5 that Hart did it. DNA was attempted in early '02, but there was not enough to get a result. What did happen was an unethical, Big City defense lawyer (despite being told by the court not to discuss it) told the jury that Hart was already serving 300 years - thus the jury reached a compromised verdict. The DA from Tulsa (Buddy Fallis) came in to the small county to do the case. This case still haunts Buddy to this day and it was his reason for him to leave criminal law altogether. The defense attorney brags about his acquital and uses it to go speak to other defense attorneys on how to perpetrate a fraud on the people (the jury).

This review is from: Someone cry for the children: The unsolved Girl Scout murders of Oklahoma and the case of Gene Leroy Hart (Hardcover)
It was very interesting to me as a Cherokee and living in the area where the murders occured. I kept an open mind while reading the book without predjudice. The writers did a wonderful job telling the story of their investigation; I didn't want to put it down. It was afterall, the story of their investigation, it doesn't make it an absolute truth. I still don't believe that Gene Hart killed those little girls. No one that I know does, or at least couldn't have done it without help from another person. Rumors and tales still circulate around about who really did kill those girls. The person believed to many, to have actually committed the murders, has passed away. So the mystery still lingers.
