Relationships and Memories Remain As contractors tear down Westlake’s Do- ver Elementary School over the coming weeks, former students, teachers and administrators agree that relationships created over its 70- year history will continue to stand. Tim Barrett, Dover’s Principal for 11 years until its June 2019 closure, said, “It was a neat old building. It had character and so did the people in it.” Not everything was perfect. The building was old. “We were constantly blowing circuit breakers,” Barrett recalled. There was also a bomb scare and a teacher’s strike that caused emotions to run high. “But we banded together and were at the elementary schools, including Dover. In 2014, they part of problem solving, rather than the problem.” Barrett surveyed families and held forums to discuss options.

The Cleveland Press banner headline shouted, “DOCTOR’S WIFE MURDERED IN BAY VILLAGE.” Below a large picture of Marilyn Sheppard stared back at me. “The wife of handsome, thirty year old neurosurgeon, Sam Sheppard, was found brutally mur- dered in the bedroom of their home in Bay Village, Ohio on the shore of Lake Erie. Sam Sheppard denied any involvement in the murder and described his own battle with the killer, which he de- scribed as bushy-haired.” The investigation was laced with intrigue and corruption. Ap- palling, yet compelling. What was true? Who was lying? And why? As a teenager, I remember seeing the headlines and read- ing all the gory details. Everyone was talking about it. Each had their own opinion. Still their extensive case lacked evidence. The trial was grueling. Person- ally, I never thought he did it. “The trial of Sam Sheppard opened on October 18, 1954.

  • Samuel Sheppard Murder Trial Press Coverage - Introduction
    Samuel Sheppard Murder Trial Press Coverage - Introduction (This case was prepared by University of Georgia journalism student Umarah Alit for JOUR 5170, Advanced Studies in Journalism, based on secondary sources cited below.) Media coverage of the Samuel Sheppard trial in 1954, as well as the consequent Supreme Court ruling, is essential in understanding fair journalistic practices while covering events flooded with bias and public opinion. The case is especially relevant for journalists who cover court cases, particularly those with high profile figures, and contains fundamental issues of journalistic credibility and courage despite having occurred over 50 years ago. While independence and minimizing harm are important factors in any aspect of journalism, they are especially pertinent in legal situations where the media is at risk for becoming involved in the story itself. Samuel Sheppard Murder Trial Press Coverage - Part A Samuel Holmes Sheppard, an American osteopathic physician, found his pregnant wife, Marilynn Reese Sheppard, murdered in their Bay Village, Ohio home on the morning of July 4, 1954. Sheppard claimed he awoke to his wife screaming upstairs, and when he entered the room, saw a "bushy-haired intruder" strangling her. He struggled with the man until Sheppard lost consciousness, and when he awoke he saw his wife had been killed. Sheppard was questioned by police and investigators shortly after the incident, but maintained his innocence. The public, however, believed that Sheppard was getting away with murder because of his status and wealth. The Cleveland Press and other Cleveland newspapers published numerous front page and editorialized articles with unusually large headlines and enormous photos for editorials on the situation.

PRESSING CHARGES: The Impact of the Sam Sheppard Trials on Courtroom Coverage and Criminal Law Abstract Tali Yahalom, College '09, History Roman Holidays: The Role of Publicity in Criminal Trials The media sensationalized the 1954 trial of Sam Sheppard (accused of murdering his wife), his acquittal, and post-prison years. The intense coverage set journalistic and legal precedents, motivating various judges to address, in legal terms, the media’s role during pretrial investigations and courtroom proceedings. This thesis uses newspapers, magazines and court opinions to explore the extent of the media blitz, and addresses the question of whether the press compromised justice. This thesis also examines the case's continuing relevance: Why was this particular case so popular? Why did the public react with a collective desire to convict Sheppard? As an indelible presence in American public memory, how did the case change the legality and culture of trial coverage in the US? The recurring presence of the trial in publicity-related cases today highlights the irreconcilable tension between a public's right to a free press and a defendant's right to a fair and speedy trial.

  • Article -Blood Spatter Sam Sheppard
    4 Blood Spatter: Sheppard (From the book, Bodies of Evidence by Dr. Scott Christianson) ​ ​ A brilliant criminalist devises new techniques to follow the killer’s bloody trail – and helps to free Sam Sheppard. The blood was everywhere. Police arrived at the physician’s Bay Village, Ohio, home early on July 4, 1954, to find Mrs. Marilyn Sheppard in the upstairs master bedroom. Her body was lying in her bed in a pool of blood, her head battered by more than fifteen blows from an unidentified heavy object. A pillow on the bed showed a three-inch-long bloodstain. The walls of the master bedroom were spattered with blood. A trail of blood led down the stairs and onto the terrace. Dr. Sam Sheppard, husband of the deceased, his face swollen and one of his vertebrae fractured, seemed disoriented from his ordeal. But there was no cut or blood spots on him. He told the cops a harrowing story about how the previous night his wife’s screams had awakened him from his sleep on the downstairs daybed. He had rushed upstairs and entered the bedroom where he was struck on the head from behind. When he came to, he found his wife, dead, and panicked about their son, Sam, age seven. Then he realized the intruder was still in the house, so he gave chase onto the beach along Lake Erie. He caught a man and fought him, but the man knocked him out again. He described the stranger as tall with a large head and bushy hair. The detectives didn’t believe Sheppard’s story, especially when they caught him in a lie.

Her book entitled A Distant Mirror may not have been as successful as The Guns Of August, which won the Pulitzer Prize, but I think it is her most ambitious and fascinating work. A Distant Mirror is about the 14th centurya tumultuous time when the world (meaning Europe) was rebuilding itself and its institutions after the Black Death killed one-third of the people living between India and Iceland. Tuchman knew that by drawing analogies to our own time she could make us pay attention to the stories that history tells.
