It has always been much harder to convict a woman in America, particularly an attractive woman.

I recently read a book about sensational murder cases in Chicago during the 20s.

Several open and shut cases where women murdered their husbands in cold blood. Acquitted by the all male juries.

The musical and movie Chicago were (very) loosely based on these cases.

Winkler isn’t what I would call attractive however

There were quite a few cases of such acquittals as far back as the 1840s!
