On this episode of History of the 90s, host Kathy Kenzora looks back at the abduction and murder of two-year-old James Bulger, a crime so shocking that it continues to reverberate more than 30 years later.
James was lured away from his mom at a shopping mall near Liverpool, England by two 10-year-old boys who tortured and killed the toddler. They became the youngest people in the UK to be convicted of first degree murder.
