Urbana attorney Darrell Heckman will present a program titled “Poisoned in Urbana” at 2 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 20, in the Champaign County Historical Museum, 809 East Lawn Ave. This presentation recounts the intentional poisoning of a prominent Urbana family in 1927 and the identification, charging and extradition of the suspect – a lawyer! There are numerous twists to the story, all of which are fascinating.

All are welcome to this event, which will coincide with the Annual Meeting of the Champaign County Historical Society.
