In late October 2009, police found the first gruesome evidence of a murder spree that shook not only Imperial Avenue, but the entire region and captured headlines around the world. Now, Anthony Sowell stands trial for the murder of the eleven women whose remains were found in and around his home. We'll look at what's going on in the courtroom, learn more about the victims and discuss the impact of these crimes on the community. Join us, Wednesday at 9 on the Sound of Ideas.
