Crime Fiction
Nicholas Schmidle on the case of Tyrone Hood, who is in prison for the 1993 murder of Marshall Morgan and has always maintained his innocence. Did the Chicago police coerce witnesses into pinpointing the wrong man for homicide—allowing a serial killer to commit more murders?
Morgan was twenty, a point guard who averaged eighteen points and three steals. His mother grew worried when he didn't call—"he always called to say that he'd be late." His father had recently come back into his life after a seventeen-year absence. Escoffery had warned her son to be wary.
