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.
