A Jury Of Her Peers, Crime, Mystery & Fiction Story

Susan Glaspell wrote the short story, "A Jury of Her Peers," in 1917, a year after publishing a one-act play, "Trifles," on the same subject. Glaspell based both "A Jury of Her Peers" and "Trifles" on the real murder of John Hossack, which she covered as a journalist for the Des Moines Daily News. Hossack was a farmer who was murdered with an axe as his wife slept next to him. Mrs. Hossack was initially convicted for the murder, but was later released during an appeal due to lack of evidence. Susan Glaspell's "A Jury of Her Peers" tells the story of a similar murder, but unlike the Hossack murder, Glaspell provides a motive for the wife to murder her husband.
