On Easter Sunday, 1937, Robert Irwin, a talented and very disturbed young sculptor, who had been in and out of mental hospitals for years, committed a horrific triple murder in the fashionable Manhattan neighborhood of Beekman Hill. The victims were Veronica Gedeon, a beautiful true crime magazine model, her mother Mary, both strangled to death, and a male boarder, Frank Byrnes, stabbed eleven times with an icepick while he slept.
These murders led to one of the largest manhunts since the Lindbergh baby kidnapping.
