Happy new year! We're back with a brand new episode. Katie tells us about the murder of William Guldensuppe, an attendant at a local Turkish bath in 1890s New York City. Several packages of remains are found in June 1897 across the island of Manhattan, and it is soon discovered that the remains belong to William. Police arrest two suspects...Augusta Nack who was William's lover, and Martin Nack...her current lover. Join us as we dive into this case with mocktails in hand.
