Crowds gathered in front of residences on Manhattan Place where William Edward Hickman disposed of Marion Parker's remains, Los Angeles, 1927

Description:
Marion Parker was kidnapped for ransom on December 15, 1927 by William Edward Hickley. Two days later, Marion's remains were retrieved by her father, Perry Parker, on a street curb at 432 S. Manhattan Place- just moments after exchanging $1500 for Marion, whom he presumed was alive. Hickman was ultimately tried and sentenced to death for the crime. He was executed at San Quentin, October 19, 1928.
