Resumen del Editor
In 1989, Eileen Franklin, a young California housewife, claimed to recover a repressed memory of her father killing her playmate 20 years earlier. In a landmark trial, the father was charged and convicted of first-degree murder, based solely on his daughter's testimony. This book chronicles the trial, explores the remarkably dysfunctional Franklin family and delves into the credibility of repressed memories as evidence.
This version contains a 2011 Epilogue, which details the reasons for the reversal of George Franklin's murder conviction and the refusal of the district attorney to retry him for murder.

Historia
On June 9, 2008, the butchered body of Travis Alexander was found in his Mesa, Arizona, home. The grisly nature of his death made instant headlines: With 29 knife wounds, his throat slit, and a gunshot to the head, Travis was left to die. The prime suspect in the case was Alexander's ex-girlfriend, the attractive and soft-spoken Jodi Arias. Though Arias initially said that she was nowhere near the scene of crime, little about this case was as it seemed, and before long she had been caught lying to police. As the investigation progressed, her lies evolved multiple times before finally resting on an appalling claim: She had killed Travis in self-defense.

What began as a temporary childcare arrangement between Sylvia Likens's parents and Gertrude Baniszewski turned into a crime that would haunt cops, prosecutors, and a community for decades to come. When police found Sylvia's emaciated body, with a chilling message carved into her flesh, they knew that she had suffered tremendously before her death.

Historia
On an August night in 1986, Jennifer Levin left a Manhattan bar with Robert Chambers. The next morning, her strangled, battered body was found in Central Park. Linda Wolfe goes beyond the headlines and media hype to recreate a story of a teenager whose immigrant mother was determined to make a better life for her son, a petty thief and drug user who'd been expelled from the best schools. Wasted powerfully depicts the freewheeling 1980s society that spawned a generation steeped in violence and the fatal impulses that drove Robert Chambers to kill.

Now available for the first time in unabridged audio, the gripping story of this famous and haunting crime is brought to life by acclaimed narrator Scott Brick.

Rachel Newhouse disappeared on the night of November 12, 1998. Only months later, in the same town, Aundria Crawford lost her life in an act of unimaginable violence. As authorities worked to find clues, parole officer David Zaragoza paid a routine visit to one of his charges - Rex Allan Krebs, a violent serial rapist who'd served only 10 years of a 20-year sentence. After sending Krebs back to jail for violating his parole, Zaragoza found a key chain belonging to one of the victims. An intensive search led to the gruesome discovery of buried remains near Krebs' secluded cabin.

In the summer of 1937, a California crime stunned an already grim nation. Three little girls were lured away from a neighborhood park to unthinkable deaths. After a frantic week-long manhunt for the killer, a suspect emerged. Justice was swift, and the condemned man was buried away with the horrifying story. But decades later, Pamela Everett, a lawyer and former journalist, starts digging, following up a cryptic comment her father once made about losing two of his sisters. Everett unearths a truly historic legal case that included the genesis of modern sex offender laws and the last man sentenced to hang in California.

But on March 12, 2004, gunshots were heard inside the Wesson home, and police officers responding to what they believed was a routine domestic disturbance were horrified by the senseless carnage they discovered when they entered.

It was the trial that stunned America, the verdict that shocked us all. On July 5, 2011, nearly three years after her initial arrest, Casey Anthony walked away, virtually scot-free, from one of the most sensational murder trials of all time. She'd been accused of killing her daughter, Caylee, but the trial only left behind more questions: Was she actually innocent? What really happened to Caylee? Was this what justice really looked like?

On June 7, 1998, James Byrd, Jr., a 49-year-old black man, was dragged to his death while chained to the back of a pickup truck driven by three young white men. It happened just outside of Jasper, a sleepy East Texas logging town that, within 24 hours of the discovery of the murder, would be inextricably linked in the nation's imagination to an exceptionally brutal, modern-day lynching. In this superbly written examination of the murder and its aftermath, award-winning journalist Joyce King brings us on a journey that begins at the crime scene.

When the officers arrived at his home they found the bloody and battered bodies of MacDonald's pregnant wife and two young daughters. The word "pig" was written in blood on the headboard in the master bedroom. As MacDonald was being loaded into the ambulance, he accused a band of drug-crazed hippies of the crime.

Historia
A ship's pilot legendary for guiding mammoth freighters through the narrows of Puget Sound, Rolf Neslund was a proud Norwegian, a ladies' man, and a beloved resident of Washington State's idyllic Lopez Island. Virtually indestructible even into his golden years, he made electrifying headlines more than once: after a ship he was helming crashed into the soaring West Seattle Bridge, causing millions in damages; and following his inexplicable disappearance at age 80. Was he a suicide, a man broken by one costly misstep? Had he run off with a lifelong love? Or did a trail of gruesome evidence lead to the home Rolf shared with his wife, Ruth?

Author/ narrator dissonance
I had a hard time with this book. I was unsure of the authors intent at several points because of the narrators delivery. It occurred to me that it may have been vague for the narrator as well so she did the best she could in interpreting through inflection. Still, although I found the basic facts gripping, I was not a fan of how the author portrayed behaviors of the female victims and the way he described the appearance of the prosecuting attorney. False memory syndrome is fascinating and I'd like to find titles that focus on the emerging science of such. All in all I walked away wondering if the author has ever known anyone that was a victim of abuse or incest because he seemed like either a closet chauvinist or the bitter ex of a victim.

Our children. Our future.
The book leaves you with an aftertaste of avoiding contact with any appearance of molestation however innocent. I've often wanted to get involved with helping disadvantage youth but fear those who have suspicious minds. Innocent until proven guilty is a myth. It's a shame as our future is tied to our children.

Fascinating true story!!!
Where does Once Upon A Time, A True Story of Memory, Murder and the Law rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This ranks among my favorite Audible books. I remember this story from the '90s and the facts are very different than what was reported at the time. This story details an abusive and extremely dysfunctional family and a father accused of murder by his daughter. The author presents a believable psychological explanation and a 2011 update.

Interesting and addictive story, bad narrator
Would you consider the audio edition of Once Upon A Time, A True Story of Memory, Murder and the Law to be better than the print version?
No, the narrator was annoying. I found myself getting irritated at her over and mis-pronunciations.
What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
Wondering if her story is true, or how much of it is true.
Would you be willing to try another one of Wendy Almeida’s performances?
NO
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
It kept me interested and wondering what was going to happen next. It made me research this case, look at pictures of the family and try to decide for myself.

Superb!
As an avid true crime lover I especially enjoyed the detail in this book. The entire court case was told in such a way to make you feel as if you were there. Too many true crime stories assume guilt based on a conviction, in this tale the reader is allowed to make up their own mind. I found myself wondering what I would have done had I been on the jury, with the facts that the jury was given, and also trying to decide what I thought with all the facts. That was an interesting change for me, as usually my option of guilt is decided before the book even makes it to the courtroom.
The narrator did a pretty good job of portraying the different speakers, although there were moments that she annoyed me in her attempts to do this. Overall though, she added to the book and did not take away.
Highly recommend!

Interesting story but slow read
What about Wendy Almeida’s performance did you like?
Had to listen on faster speed. Narration is too slow and tedious.
Any additional comments?
Interesting subject matter. Be prepared for a slow narration.

Poor writing worse narration!
You could rip out every other page of this book and still probably not miss anything of substance. MacLean's writing style was dizzying and told the story as a watery soup more full of contradicting opinions than facts. It isn't the worst true crime novel but it's not good either. The narration was truly awful! What were they thinking?! Almeida sounds grandmotherly and every time she said something obscene (which is frequently) I truly cringed! I'm sure she could pull off many books very well as a narrator and she did do a fantastic southern drawl for the killers voice, but she was honestly a very very poor choice for this book! I cannot recommend, nor will I ever re-read.
