Rosenberg Case Digital Collection

Accused of passing on atomic secrets to the Soviet Union, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were sentenced to death in 1951. Based on the judge's verdict that their crime was "worse than murder," the severity of their punishment caused a wave of protest and came to symbolize the anti-communist hysteria of the time.
