1912: Husband Set On Fire (cont)

The domestic homicides in this data set are analyzed and discussed in three essays here: "I Loved Joe, but I Had to Shoot Him", Homicides Among Chicago Families: 1870-1930, and Wife Murder in Chicago: 1910-1930.  Also, an interview with Cynthia Grant Bowman compares patterns in domestic violence in the historical cases with patterns in domestic violence cases in contemporary settings.
