The 'Counterfeit' Man: Boorn-Colvin CaseA man disappeared. Brothers-in-law convicted. Vague testimony. And no body. The Boorn-Colvin murder case may sound better fitted for the plot of a mystery novel, but in 1812, Stephen and Jesse Boorn were tried and convicted for the murder of their brother-in-law, Russell Colvin. Professor Gerald McFarland presents his account of both the case and the status of law in the early nineteenth century that allowed for such a bizzare case to result.Retail Price: $79.00
