Since the day an anarchist assassinated President McKinley in 1901, crime has transformed the United States in the 20th century. From the kidnapping and slaying of Charles Lindbergh's baby son to the carnage of the Oklahoma City bombing, these 10 acts changed the country, inspiring new laws and broadening civil rights. They've captivated an entire nation that waited for a verdict, or cast a collective pall on the American psyche.
