Book Review of Judgment Ridge : The True Story Behind the Dartmouth Murders

Judgment Ridge : The True Story Behind the Dartmouth Murders


The book is well-written and researched. I was filled with outrage at how casually the families involved allowed their teen children to cut school, travel without permission, and generally get totally out of hand. Whether adequate supervision would have curbed the two murderer's impulses it's hard to say. But a community with people like this raising children has a problem. What a senseless, sad crime.
