Episode 221 Mary Ann Cotton - When Love is Poison


Listen Later

So in this episode, we once more return to Victorian London where we meet Mary Ann Cotton (nee 
Robson) a lovely wife and mother with the unfortunate curse of having her husbands and children die around her.  Digging deeper,  we begin to discover she is a poisoner with a body count somewhere in the range of 15 to 20, mostly her children, husbands and lovers,  We discuss her life, her history, how easilty arsenic was available to people at that time.  We give our thoughts and along the way even manage to touch on a few other things in this Victorian true crime episode of the Family Plot Podcast!
