The Case of the Mansfield Tragedy Serial Killing
News of the Times Episode 421 | 1895
In today’s episode it is 1895 Mansfield, Nottinghamshire.
Mary, a respectable 48 year old widow with children and left in comfortable circumstances lets out rooms to bring in some additional money.  Her lodger is a local man named Nenty who has a contentious relationship with his own family.  He has been lodging at Mary’s house for some five years.
Nenty has fallen in love with Mary and proclaims his love.  Mary has explained that she is not interested but values their friendship.  Over time, Nenty’s professions of love and his behaviour become more aggressive which would become further exacerbated when he drank. 
Then, one fateful night, Nenty snaps and the house faces its own Armageddon at the hands of Nenty.  One policeman at the scene, who had been one of the many officers at the ripper crimes some years previously, stated that the bloodbath he witnessed was far worse than any of the ripper scenes.
We take a look at the infamous Case of the Mansfield Tragedy Serial Killing that horrified Victorians across the country. 
On a lighter note, our further particulars story looks at a ghostly bride who comes back from the dead to be wed to her still living boyfriend is in the act of marrying his very alive current fiancé. It complicated and surreal!
Hosted by Robin Coles.
