Creeps and Crimes

138: Elizabeth Cochran Seaman "Nellie Bly" & Barbara Gayle Stoppel


Listen Later

We've got a really interesting episode for you all this Thursday, but of course we had to kick It off with a little catch up session on what's been going on and how we have been feeling about time! Especially after covering Missing Time!!! Morgan then dives into the story of Elizabeth Cochran Seaman, or Nellie Bly. The absolutely iconic female American Journalist that changed the world of journalism with her bold and passionate investigative reporting style when she posed as a patient in order to go undercover in the Women's Lunatic Asylum at Blackwell's Island (now, Roosevelt Island) and expose the brutal mistreatment of patients to the world when she published her piece "Ten Days in a MadHouse"! Elizabeth's work and passion paved the way for other female journalists, making it possible for us to do what we love today- podcast reporting!  Taylar then covers the Winnipeg case of 16 year old Barbara Gayle Stoppel who was found unconscious in the bathroom of her work place on Dec. 23, 1981 after many witnesses reported seeing a "cowboy" in the shop alone with her moment's prior. This case has caused so much confusion and seems to be clouded with corruption, wrongful convictions, and so many questions as to why someone would have done this to Barbara. Taylar's main source for this segment was BarbStoppel.com and Andrew Mikolajewski's book "Stoppel", which is available on the website. Time is flying by a lot faster these days, it seems. Be sure to take some moments to yourself and be present with those you love! But- you all are still grounded until further notice! Love ya! Produced by Dear Media See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
