History

Historical Context

In 1935, Washington, D.C. faced a wave of murders attributed to Jarvis Theodore Roosevelt Catoe, who later confessed to killing at least eight women between 1935 and 1941. His 1935 indecent-exposure conviction and the arrest of James Matthews Smith for Florence Dancy’s April murder illustrate the period’s broader law enforcement investigative difficulties.
