A New Haven True Crime Investigation of Bonnie Garland, Richard Herrin, and Yale University

In July 1977 in New Haven, Connecticut, twenty-year-old Yale University student Bonnie Garland was bludgeoned to death in her home by her boyfriend, Yale graduate Richard Herrin. Journalist Peter Meyer investigates the crime, Herrin's confession, and the controversial defense campaign funded by local religious figures who sought his release under a temporary insanity plea.
