The Brooklyn Thrill Killers were a group of teenage boys who were convicted of killing one man and accused of killing another (one by drowning, the other by beating) and committed acts of assault and torture against several other people in Brooklyn, a borough of New York City during the summer of 1954.[1][2] The case attracted considerable media attention in the United States. It also fueled the controversy over comic books, which were accused at the time of causing sexual perversion and juvenile delinquency.
