Anton Schuessler Sr.

popular name: Anton Schuessler Sr.

date_of_death: November 11, 1955

age: 42

cause_of_death: Heart attack

claim_to_fame: Crime and their Victims

best_know_for: Anton Schuessler Sr. was the father of John Schuessler and Anton Schuessler Jr., and both of his sons were brutally raped and murdered with their friend Robert Peterson in 1955. The crime scene where the bodies where found was largely contaminated by investigators and photographers who destroyed important evidence. This murder case remained unsolved for 40 years until stable handyman Kenneth Hansen became a suspect (along with his boss Silas Jayne) thanks to evidence that was unearthed as a result of an investigation into another sensational cold case - the 1977 murder of candy-company heiress Helen Vorhees Brach.

Sunny Von Bulow

popular name: Sunny Von Bulow

date_of_death: December 6, 2008

age: 76

cause_of_death: Cardiopulmonary Arrest

claim_to_fame: Crime and their Victims

best_know_for: Martha "Sunny" Von Bulow was an American heiress, socialite, and philanthropist. Upon her utilities magnate father's death, she was the heiress to his ~ $100 million fortune. After divorcing her first husband, Prince Alfred von Auersperg, she married Claus von Bulow, a former aide to J.P. Getty. Claus was accused of twice trying to murder his wife for her fortune, by injecting Sunny with Insulin. The second coma left Sunny in a persistent vegetative state for the next 28 years until her death from cardiopulmonary arrest in 2008. Claus was initially found guilty of attempted murder, but his conviction was overturned on appeal. Her children from her first marriage remained convinced that Claus had tried to murder her, and established the Sunny von Bulow National Victim Advocacy Center, now known as the National Center for Victims of Crime. They also established the Sunny von Bulow Coma and Head Trauma Research Foundation in New York in their mother's honor.

Dr. Francis E. Sweeney

popular name: Dr. Francis E. Sweeney

date_of_death: July 9, 1964

age: 70

cause_of_death: Natural causes

claim_to_fame: Crime and their Victims

best_know_for: From 1935 to 1938, 12 bodies – some people say 13 - were dumped in the area known as Kingsbury Run, a creek bed that ran from East 90th Street and Kinsman Road to the Cuyahoga River. The victims included seven men and five women. Most were hobos and prostitutes, people living on the edge at a time when Cleveland was hard hit by the Great Depression. Many weren't missed for months. After 80 years after Frank Dolezal was murdered in his prison cell as the suspected serial killer, multiple investigators have uncovered both old and new evidence that most certainly points to Dr. Francis Sweeney as the actual Cleveland Torso Murderer. Dr. Sweeney perfectly fit the profile of the Cleveland Torso Murderer and had the medical expertise required for dismembering human bodies. Alas we was never arrested as he committed himself to a mental hospital after extensive questioning by Eliot Ness, special agent assigned to the killings.
