Alice Crimmins

Crimmins' children, Eddie Jr., age 5, and Missy, age 4, disappeared from their garden apartment in Kew Gardens Hills in the Queens borough of New York City on July 14, 1965. She reported the missing children to the police. Later that day, Missy's strangled body was found. Five days later, Eddie's body was discovered, but authorities were unable to identify the cause of his death. The Casey Anthony trial has been compared by some in the media to the Crimmins trial. Under her married name of Alice Grace she lives in Northwest Florida. ==In popular culture==
