Piano in the home of Paul A. Wright, where Evelyn Wright and John B. Kimmel were sitting before they were fatally shot by Paul A. Wright, Glendale, November 10, 1937

Description:
Piano bench where Evelyn Wright and John B. Kimmel were sitting before they were fatally shot by Evelyn's husband, Paul A. Wright. There appears to be a pool of blood beneath the bench. Wright confessed to shooting his wife and best friend, John Kimmel, after finding the two in an embrace on the piano bench in his home. The trial that followed was named the "white flame" trial by the press and Wright was eventually let off on an insanity plea, thanks to his lawyer, Jerry Giesler
