Bradley Hart and his wife Fern
Facts of the Crime:
The murders of Bradley Hart and his wife Fern were the culmination of a series of crimes committed by Wharton and his cohorts against the Hart family in retribution for a dispute over the quality of home improvement work Wharton performed in the summer of 1983 at the Harts’ residence and at a radio station owned by Mr. Hart’s father, the Reverend Samuel Hart. When Mr. Hart refused to pay Wharton’s employer for the work, Wharton complained bitterly and blamed Bradley Hart for his lost wages. He vowed to make the Hart family pay.
Wharton was sentenced to death in Philadelphia County on July 5, 1985.
