Harvey Church (at right, above) was boastful too, in confessing his crime, but lost some assurance when forced to re-enact his brutal slaying of two auto salesmen

Unknown
Tribune Newspaper

Wirephoto published in the Tribune newspaper in 1937. Purchased by David Hurn from MMG Photo Archives.

Full title: Harvey Church (at right, above) was boastful too, in confessing his crime, but lost some assurance when forced to re-enact his brutal slaying of two auto salesmen to get the car they were demonstrating. Here he kneels at the grave of one of Church's garage. He later showed how he had thrown the other body into the Des Plaines river.
