Exploring a Deadly Case of Jealousy and Murder
News of the Times Episode 53 | 1840
Welcome to today’s episode, where we travel back to 1881, to an isolated farm near St Columb.
Mrs. Chapman, a mother of six, finds herself at the centre of a deadly confrontation. Accused of having an affair with a farmhand brought in for the harvest, she faces her enraged husband—armed and dangerous. First, he brandishes a gun, then turns to a knife, driving it into her stomach and inflicting multiple wounds.
Was it murder or manslaughter? And more importantly—does he get away with it?
In today’s Further Particulars, we explore the chilling tale of a man whose obsession with phrenology takes a truly horrifying turn. Brace yourself—this one isn’t for the faint of heart!
Hosted by Robin Coles.
