Helen Jewett was smart, attractive, savvy and ambitious. Unfortunately, it was the 1830s and, born Dorcas Doyon and raised as an orphan servant girl in Augusta, Maine, she didn’t have a lot of options. And the lack of options all came crashing down when she was murdered in her bed in New York City in 1836. While it happened nearly two centuries ago, as the story plays out, it could’ve easily been yesterday.
We also have the latest on the Breonna Taylor case, including what the grand jury heard.
And Maureen goes off the NNW charts on a documentary that… just didn’t live up to her standards.
