News of the Times Episode 182 | 1874 & 1878
Infamous Murders in Wales: Frightful Fridays
Beautiful Wales has had its own share of Infamous murders which rocked the respective communities at the time.

Our first murder story from 1874 involves a known liar and deception artist James Gibbs.  Gibbs has latched onto kind-hearted and much older spinster Susan Ann Ingram and has married her and then, effectively, dumped her.  But Susan does not understand this and follows him.  Her body, in a ditch, was said to be a living mass of crawling insects.

Ours second murder story of 1878 in a small village shattered the community.  A well-respected working family with no known enemies is brutally slaughtered.  The chase is on to find the culprit and bring him to justice.

Two infamous murders in beautiful pastoral Wales is today’s episode of Frightful Fridays.

Hosted by Robin Coles.

News of the Times Episode 181 | 1694 - 1909
Notorious Cases of Family Annihilations
***DISTURBING CONTENT***
Today’s episode of Wicked Wednesdays looks at three stories where a family was utterly annihilated.  Parents, partners, aunts, uncles, children – no one was safe.
Our first story from 1694 looks at infamous Thomas Austin as recounted from the Newgate Calendar.
Our second story from Germany in 1866 looks at the infamous Timm Thode annihilations – a feat he seemed to be almost proud of.
Our last story, back in England in 1909, looks at an all too familiar story of marital abuse with Samuel Atherley and the deadly slaughtering of his partner and three children.
Family annihilations is today’s episode of Wicked Wednesdays – and they are all very wicked indeed.
We hope you enjoy the show!

News of the Times Episode 53 | 1840
The Eltham Murder Mystery: Murderous Mondays
The Eltham Murder Mystery of 1871 involves pregnant Jane Clouson and her “young man”, Edward “Ned” Pook, who is none other than the son of the head of the household from which she has just been dismissed.
Pretty Jane Clouson is ecstatic to receive a letter from her Ned wishing to meet with her that night to give her some tremendous news.  Jane is excited and tells her friends and family about her planned meeting with her Ned.  She never returns.
On a lonely road, Jane is found bludgeoned so extensively that her brains are protruding over her eye.  She has been bludgeoned face to face – she saw it happen.
This case became a cause celebre at the time, eventually leading to riots in town.
The murder of Jane Clouson of the Eltham Murder Mystery is today’s episode of Murderous Mondays.
Hosted by Robin Coles.

Martin Dumollard: The Maid Killer - Serial Killer Saturdays
News of the Times Episode 179 | 1862
Martin Dumollard, renowned in French history, is infamous for a series of gruesome murders that is believed to have taken place in France between  1855 to 1861. The case was significant in French criminal history and attracted widespread international attention.
Dumollard, posing as a head gardener of a chateau, would seek out vulnerable young girls, working as maids, and offer them a position at a chateau in the country at supposed fabulous wages.
Alone and isolated with Dumollard whilst they walked towards the imaginary chateau, Dumollard would do unspeakable things to the girls, afterwards often burying them alive.
Today’s episode of Serial Killer Saturdays looks at this horrifying French serial killer, Martin Dumollard, the Maid Murderer.

Murderous Stories From the Stage
News of the Times Episode 178 | 1850 & 1897
In today’s episode of Frightful Fridays, we look at two stories from the Victorian stage involving obsession and murder.
Our first story centres on newly widowed Martha Sharpe who imagines herself in a new life with handsome popular actor of his day, James Elphinstone.  Martha’s stalking of the famed actor turns deadly as she plots a way of making him her own...

Our second story involves the well-known William Terriss, and a small bit part actor’s obsession with him. Fame and eventually any acting work at all eludes Richard Archer Prince as he sinks lower into poverty to the point of pawning his clothes.  He is certain the cause of all his misfortunes is the famous Mr William Terriss.  With no William Terriss, people will surely recognise his talent…

Two stories of obsession and murder from the stage for today’s episode of Frightful Fridays.
Hosted by Robin Coles.

The Crumbles Murders - Part 2: Frightful Fridays
News of the Times Episode 174 | 1920
This 1920 murder in the beauty spot of “Crumbles” on the Eastbourne seaside was the first of two murders that took place in the scenic area some 4 years apart.  Lovely 19-year-old Irene Munro, on her first holiday on her own, goes missing.  Within a few days, a boy on a picnic with his mother discovers a foot sticking out of the shingle beach. Her face had been so battered that she could only be identified by the memorable green coat she had been wearing.
In today’s episode of Frightful Fridays, we explore the murder, the investigation and the catching of the two murderers, who, with defence attorney Marshall Hall representing them, spent much of their time laughing in court.  But not for long.
Hosted by Robin Coles.
