Coffee With Jeff

Two stories in today’s episode. My main story is the brutal murder of 28-year-old Kitty Genovese, who was stabbed in New York City on her way home from work. It is a murder remembered 60 years later because of a factually incorrect newspaper article.

The second story is of the 1974 attempted kidnapping of Princess Ann outside Buckingham Palace by a man named Ian Ball.
