Real Detective. ‘They Finger Me with Scorn because My Mother Died in the Electric Chair!’ by Ruth Creighton, Long Island Schoolgirl. Love Mad Pirate. Drugstore Cowboy and the Desert Corpse.” Historical note: the “Ruth Creighton” to which a story is attributed may well have been the daughter of Mary Frances Creighton, who really was electrocuted in Sing Sing Prison in 1936.
