In this episode, we are going to get in the business of the parents of America's most famous assassin, John Wilkes Booth. Turns out he didn't come from a stable home, if you can believe that! Way to go Junius and Mary Ann. If I had a nickel for every time someone in the Booth family threatened to murder a president, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's still weird that it happened twice...

In this episode, we are going to explore the messy marriage of Daniel E. Sickles and Teresa Bagioli. Sickles may be best known for his actions at the Battle of Gettysburg, but his personal life was just as dramatic and violent. Let's take a deeper dive into the murder trial that scandalized the nation right before the outbreak of the Civil War. Join me as I get into dead folks business!
