News of the Times Episode 131 | 1865
The Twisted Tale of Dr. Edward Pritchard: Scotland's Poisoning Philanderer
In 1865, Dr. Edward Pritchard was arrested in Scotland for murdering 2 women, although he was suspected of murdering 3. His story became infamous, and he was referred to by Arthur Conan Doyle in his Sherlock Holmes story, The Speckled Band. Serial adulterer, liar, and avid egotist, Dr Pritchard was as cold as they come.

In this serial killer Saturday episode, you'll learn about the history of Dr Pritchard, his crimes, and the fateful events that led to his arrest.
Hosted by Robin Coles
