From the Paper:
"This research considers some sociological aspects of murder in the United States. Although other cases and sources are employed, this consideration is conducted primarily through an examination of the so-called "Preppie Murder," in which Jennifer Levin was the victim, and Robert Chambers was the murderer, and which occurred in New York City in August 1986.Three factors provide the focus for this research. These factors are (1) societal views in the United States toward victims and accused persons in murder cases, (2) the use of these societal attitudes by defense and prosecuting counsels in the manipulation of juries, and (3) the degree to which justice is served by the American approach to murder."
