Mockery of Justice: The True Story of the Sheppard Murder
Case
by Cynthia L. Cooper & Sam Reese Sheppard New York: Penguin,
1997
In this book, co-authored with attorney and journalist
Cynthia Cooper, the son of Dr. Sam Sheppard tells the
story of the Sheppard murder case as he sees
it—namely, that his father was innocent and that the
late Richard Eberling, a former window washer at the
Sheppard home, was the likely murderer. This Web site's
chronology
was adapted from this paperback edition.
The Sheppard Murder Case
by Paul Holmes New York: David McKay Co., 1961
In the Foreword to this book, Erle Stanley Gardner says
it is a "fact-studded history of a case which years after
its official ending continues to hold the public
interest." Like Mockery of Justice, it propounds
the view that Dr. Sam Sheppard was unjustly tried and
convicted.
