Shootings of Alfred and Rosemary Podgis
On July 5, 1982, Alfred Podgis and his wife Rosemary Podgis were fatally shot in their home in Loch Arbour, New Jersey, United States. Scott Robert Franz, Rosemary's son by a previous marriage, was convicted of the murder of Alfred, his stepfather. Franz's high school friend Bruce Anthony Curtis, a Canadian citizen who was visiting the Podgis home, was convicted of the aggravated manslaughter of Rosemary. Both were sentenced to twenty years' imprisonment.The crime attracted significant public attention in Canada, where supporters of Curtis – whose defense was that the killing of Rosemary was accidental – believed he had not received a fair trial or sentence in the U.S., and successfully lobbied for his repatriation to serve out his sentence in the Canadian prison system. The case became the subject of a book and a television film. Provided by Wikipedia
