Crimes at the Dark House
Crimes at the Dark House is a 1940 British Victorian gothic melodrama starring the aptly named Tod Slaughter, who was one of the first persons, if not the first, to portray Sweeney Todd. It's based loosely on the 1860 novel The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins, who was a contemporary and friend of Sir Charles Dickens. Collins authored The Moonstone, which I read in college, as well as a cute story about a killer canopy bed in a "No-Tell Motel"; or rather, an Inn that would have made Burke and Hare proud.

Law School Murders: Without Hesitation. Content Warning.
“Let’s take for example the defendant’s age, race, height, speaking style…all of these are factors in the minds of a jury. Now, you can have the most astute and erudite person and still not be able to properly ascertain whether the man or woman is guilty.” Kim paced the floor of the lecture hall.
