The members of the Thrill-Kill Gang: Jack Koslow (top left), Melvin Mittman (top right), Jerry Lieberman (bottom left), and Robert Trachtenberg (bottom right). Note Jack’s and Mel’s “Hitler”-style mustaches. (Corbis)

Edward Walsh literally “points the finger” at Jack Koslow while stenographer Arthur Monford looks on. This was one of the many posed photographs that Moritt would use to argue the impossibility of a fair trial. (Corbis)

Encircling the body of Willard Menter, the boys are made to point at the corpse while surrounded by police and members of the District Attorney’s office. (Corbis)
