About this episode
Growing up in Chicago, Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb both seemed destined for greatness. They each performed well in school, and advanced to university long before their peers. But once they met at college, Leopold and Loeb began a dance that would lead them to one of the most infamous crimes of the 20th century: the murder of Bobby Franks.
