Illegal anniversary: Doc acquitted

On March 29, 1924, 30-year-old Etta Marcus died at Chicago's Francis Willard Hospital from complications of a criminal abortion performed that day.

The coroner concluded that Dr. William J. Wick had performed the fatal abortion at his office.

However, on April 10, Wick was acquitted.
