An unsolved double homicide from idyllic Rockport, Massachusetts in 1932 rocked eastern Massachusetts. Boston Confidential interviews Robert Fitzgibbon, author of Murder In Rockport, Terror in a small town. The depression struck hard on Cape Ann, the quarry business dissipated and double digit unemployment was the norm. On May 21, 1932 town tailor Arthur Oker was found murdered in his shop, the following Halloween a fellow congregant Augusta Johnson had threatened in church that she knew who was responsible, and if they didn't turn themselves in she would go to the police. She was found murdered the next morning. Who was the culprit? There are several suspects, but the mystery has never been solved.
