Kitty Genovese was a 28-year-old bar manager in Queens who told jokes that made the whole room laugh, dreamed of opening her own Italian restaurant, and was quietly in love with a woman named Mary Ann at a time when that alone could get you arrested. She had built a small, good life for herself in 1960s New York, one she had to keep partly hidden from even her own family. On March 13th, 1964, it was taken from her in an attack outside her apartment building that would soon become one of the most famous crime stories in American history. In Part 1 of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy introduces us to the real Kitty, the people who loved her, and the brutal final hours of her life.
