Aqua Tofana + John List


Listen Later

In this episode, Elisha takes us back in time to 17th century Italy to introduce us to a woman who developed a poison only to be used by a coven of battered women to rid themselves of their abusive husbands. Then Emily covers the case of a family annihilator in Westfield, New Jersey who was on the lam for 18 years before finally being captured after his story appeared on America’s Most Wanted. 

Photos from both cases are up on our social media if you’re a visual person (like we are) and need to see where the crime went down. You can also find them on our website, in the Episode Discovery file.
