The Cell Block Tango and the jazzy female criminals singing 'he had it coming' were made famous from the hit musical 'Chicago' but the two leading ladies were made famous by real life women. Reporter Maurine Watkins visited Murderess Row in the Cook County Jail in Chicago, 1924. She wrote down the stories of four women accused of murdering their boyfriends/husbands and immortalized them by turning them into characters in her play. The true crimes they committed and the crazy, 'razzle dazzle' trials of jazz age crime are what captivates audiences to this day.
