Two Great Crime Stories

A couple of incredible magazine stories from the last few weeks. First, in case you didn't see it yet, is another amazing David Green piece in the New Yorker on the murder of a Guatamalan lawyer named Rodrigo Rosenberg. Like Grann's best work it goes back and forth between giving us one theory of the case and another, before reaching a shocking conclusion.

Also, in Sports Illustrated, there's a really great look at the murder a few years ago of Denver Broncos cornerback Darrent Williams by a writer, Thomas Lake, of whom I don't think I had ever heard. Just great, great stuff.
