| Maggie Crowley (New York American, March 16, 1898) |
Robert Hoey, coming home from work in the early hours of
March 15, 1898, literally tripped over the body of a dead woman in the
courtyard of his New York City tenement. The woman had been strangled to death
and dragged to the courtyard known in the neighborhood as “Hogan’s Alley.” Four
days later, she was identified as Maggie Crowley, a young woman with a drinking
problem. Four men were suspected, two were indicted, but no one was convicted.
