One hundred years ago, two affluent and academically-gifted young men - Nathan Leopold, 19, and Richard Loeb, 18 - decided to commit the perfect murder, when they abducted and killed 14-year-old Bobby Franks in Chicago. "48 Hours" correspondent Erin Moriarty reports on how Leopold & Loeb's murder was solved, and why the crime that shocked the nation still haunts us today.

Such an infuriating case because imprisonment was too good for these killers. And the nerve of Leopold saying that "I hope all of you feel that a third of a century spent in prison has been severe punishment, and are happy to see me free.".......spoken like a true sociopath.

Don’t get me wrong, he deserved to die in jail.. But he was definitely the subservient in that relationship.. In other words, it’s hard for me to believe Leopold murders anyone, or even runs afoul of the law possibly, if he never meets Loeb..

Ira Levin who wrote 'Compulsion' talked with Leopold at his release. Levin was impressed at all those years of legal aide to other prisoners, medical work, serious studies, never making any trouble and overall just creating the flawless image of St. Leopold. Levin says as they talked, the mask slipped just a little bit and he saw that smirking Superman psychopath who was going to fool the world with this 'saintly creation' and Levin said it made the hair on the back of his neck stand up.

I loved going to Chicago on business. But Kenwood was one place I couldn't bring myself to visit after reading the case file and the commentary by Clarence Darrow. It seemed they lured young Bobby Franks under the pretense of wanting to show him a new tennis racquet Leopold had. It's revolting and terribly sad.

When my 8th grade history teacher taught us about that case, she had to pause before saying his name, because one of my classmates was named Robert Francks. She said something like, “Oh, Robert, I’m so sorry to tell you this, but the victim had the same name as you”. But he actually went by his full name, Robert. Nobody called him Bobby. However, that did not stop several boys from teasing Robert about it, following that day of history class.

I do feel for the distant relative of Loeb who's interviewed in this piece. He shouldn't feel any guilt about just having been related to Loeb, which is hardly something he could choose or control. In addition, he is doing the best he can by donating the family papers to a university where, perhaps, some day, sufficient study of cases like this one might lead to better prevention of them.

Folie à deux (French for "madness of two"), also known as shared psychosis or shared delusional disorder (SDD), is a rare psychiatric syndrome in which symptoms of a delusional belief, are "transmitted" from one individual to another. The disorder, first conceptualized in 19th century French psychiatry by Charles Lasègue and Jules Falret, is also known as Lasègue-Falret syndrome. Recent psychiatric classifications refer to the syndrome as shared psychotic disorder (DSM-4 - 297.3) and induced delusional disorder (ICD-10 - F24), although the research literature largely uses the original name. The same syndrome shared by more than two people may be called folie à trois ('three') or quatre ('four'); and further, folie en famille ('family madness') or even folie à plusieurs ('madness of several'). This disorder is not in the current, fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), which considers the criteria to be insufficient or inadequate. DSM-5 does not consider Shared Psychotic Disorder (folie à deux) as a separate entity; rather, the physician should classify it as "Delusional Disorder" or in the "Other Specified Schizophrenia Spectrum and Other Psychotic Disorder" category.

@cherylrleigh1912 -Thank you for your research and information. I wonder if "mob mentality" can be considered the same as "folie a plusieurs"? I saw a RU-vid video yesterday about the re-enactment of a mob beating a young woman in a middle eastern country because she intervened in the illegal sale of religious iconography outside a mosque... rather than stop, the accused turned the tables and accused her of burning pages of Muslim holy text. Suddenly she was besieged by a mob of passrby [men and boys] beating her and throwing any means of heavy masonry materials at her head. Several men were later rounded up for a slap on the wrist. With that said, I realize the DSM-V may be a cultural artifact.

The Leopold and Loeb case remains a chilling reminder of the darkest corners of human nature and the allure of committing the "perfect crime."

Glorifying these two monsters! Disgusting! My grandparents told me some of the details of what they did to this poor innocent boy, torturing him as he screamed and moaned inside some large canvas bag they put him in the back seat of the car. They thrilled as they heard him cry his last breath. These were spoiled rich kids who were never disciplined by their parents and allowed to do as they please. Read about some of the killers recently whose parents let them torture animals while growing up. It's in the news. Some people never learn and should never have children.

That actually isn't unusual for a sociopath. Sociopaths can be smart about reading people and situations and using them to their best interests, since their own best interests are their focus. Leopold had to know his only shot at parole was exemplary behavior so that's what he thought to display to any authority figure who might have some say in whether or not he was paroled.

@clarklarsen1973
@clarklarsen1973 20 дней назад
What troubles me about high profile, true crime cases such as Leopold and Loeb is that the media and others spend so much time profiling the suspect that the victim or victims are virtually forgotten. Of course, this isn’t always the case. In recent times the murders of individuals such as George Floyd and Matthew Shepard placed the victim’s name front and center. But in many other cases, the suspect ends up getting more press attention than the victims. The danger with that is that the individuals who commit such horrible and senseless crimes become celebrities in their own way, with some even gaining a following. I have read that right up to his death, Charles Manson, for example continued to receive “fan mail” while in prison. And on more than one occasion, planners and perpetuators of mass shootings have stated they were “inspired” to commit their crimes from Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris, the Columbine High shooters. We, as a society, are putting people up on a pedestal who don’t deserve it. Killing an innocent person or persons doesn’t make you a “cool” person. It simply means you’re a heartless killer and there should be nothing “cool” about that.

The distance between the Harvard School for Boys and Bobby Franks' home is at least three blocks, possibly 3 and 1/2 blocks, depending on how you figure it, how extensive the playground area adjacent to it was, and above all, where exactly the baseball game that Bobby was umpiring took place (since he departed for home directly from the game, before it was finished). The place where the killers tried to hide Bobby's body was not a trainyard, but an undeveloped area near Wolf Lake in Hammond, Indiana, where Leopold had led bird-watching expeditions. A single set of railroad tracks crossed the area, running above the culvert (drainpipe) in which they placed his body.

My girlfriend at the time worked babysitting one of those little university libraries. As an A+ student, I became so homesick and depressed by the place, I hotwired an abandoned car, making several trips across town to fetch tools all through the night from my girfriend's apartment... fixed the car and got it running, and that morning we left and drove cross country in a stolen car ala Thelma and Louis. It was epic. Later that summer we went to Europe on her Guranteed Student Loan. I never went back, and refused ever to return to any college. Northwestern is truly truly the worst school ever, and Chicago is a cold, unfriendly, dirty city.

Both Leopold and Loeb came from wealthy Jewish families. This is shocking because of the proscriptions that their religion placed on crimes of a cold-blooded nature. But Leopold was fascinated by Friedrich Nietzsche's concept of "supermen" (Übermenschen), seeing them as advanced individuals with extraordinary capabilities, whose superior intellects allowed them to rise above the rules that bound the average populace. This attitude was clearly a part of the boys' indifference to the immorality of their action. Why is this not mentioned?

Would the word heterosexual be used in a story about Bonny and Clyde? They don’t use the word because it just doesn’t matter, not because they are afraid of offending anyone. Two people are criminals and the only ridiculous thing is that bigots expect that their sexual lives should be mentioned at every opportunity.

All families DID NOT WANT THE DEATH PENALTY and they had Clarence Darrow, an opponent of the death penalty. Additionally, Bobby Franks, had just written a paper or made a speech opposing the death penalty. The public wanted them to die because at that time, there was a belief that the rich got away with everything.
