True Crime Cleveland
TRUE CRIME CLEVELAND TRIPLE FEATURE
True Crime Cleveland captures a city on the make and on the move, the fifth largest town in America by the 1930s. But at its peak any place has it problems, and Cleveland had more than its share. Produced and edited for StoryWorks.TV by Mark Wade Stone, these documentaries – as refreshing as a breeze off Lake Erie in January – are anchored by true crime author James Jessen Badal, and feature music by Carl Michel.
· The Fourteenth Victim – Eliot Ness and the Torso Murders (2003, 80 minutes)
What Killed Eliot Ness? – Eliot Ness was recruited in 1936, well after his Chicago days, as Cleveland’s Safety Director to modernize the city’s streets, reduce rampant traffic fatalities and get a handle on police corruption. But what became Ness’ undoing was a twisted master criminal known as The Butcher of Kingsbury Run – who left thirteen disarticulated bodies in his wake, and Ness’ reputation in tatters. Nominated for two Regional Emmys.
· Dusk & Shadow – The Mystery of Beverly Potts (2004, 53 minutes)
Who Stole Beverly Potts? – 10 year old Beverly Potts walked from her home one Friday night in August 1951 and into Cleveland mythology. She and her friend Patsy couldn’t wait to see the Showagon performance just a couple blocks away at Halloran Park, but Patsy came home by herself that night – as if Beverly had disappeared into a mist. Awarded 2004 Regional Emmy for Music Composition.
· Doris O’Donnell’s Cleveland – The Day Marilyn Died (2008, 28 minutes)
Did Sam Really Do It? – Bay Village osteopath Sam Sheppard told a wholly preposterous story about the savage bludgeoning of his wife, Marilyn, on the Fourth of July, 1954. But none of the evidence collected in the first few days pointed to anyone else but Sam. Awarded 2008 Regional Emmys for Arts/Entertainment and Music Composition.
