Information About

Nancy Clutter




Nancy Mae Clutter ( January 2 1943November 15 1959 ) was one of four members of the Clutter family murdered during an Invasion of their Holcomb, Kansas farmhouse by Perry Smith and Richard Hickock , two ex-convicts who mistakenly believed that a large amount of money was kept in a safe in the house. Smith later alleged that Hickock had planned to Sexually Assault Nancy Clutter, but that Smith prevented it. It remains a matter of dispute whether Smith or Hickock fired the shotgun that killed Nancy Clutter.

The Clutter family murders became famous after Truman Capote used the murders and their aftermath as the basis for his 1966 non-fiction novel In Cold Blood .
