Wild Society: True Crime Podcast

Jill Coit + The Bennington Triangle


Listen Later

Welcome to the 22nd episode of Wild Society!

Jill Coit enjoyed luring men with her looks and personality. She convinced ten men to marry her, even if she was still married to the lucky man before them. When things didn’t go her way, Jill moved on to the next man. It seems as though she got away with murdering her third husband William Clark Coit Jr, but wasn’t as lucky when her son testified against her for murdering her eighth husband, Gerald “Gerry” Boggs.

Followers of folk legends and admirers of the paranormal are certainly familiar with the Bermuda Triangle and perhaps even the Michigan triangle. But one lesser-known cousin of these areas infamous for their strange disappearances over a five year stretch holds more than its fair share of tantalizing mysteries: the Bennington Triangle of Vermont.
