... in 1924, two wealthy,19-year-old University of Chicago students, Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb, kidnapped 14-year-old Bobby Franks as he walked home from school in Chicago and murdered him in their car, apparently in an experiment to commit the "perfect" crime. One story long associated with the case, but apparently untrue, is that Leopold and Loeb's list of potential victims also included 16-year-old William Chon. Chon later changed his name to Shawn and was for 35 years editor of The New Yorker.
