The Stickney Murderess
News of the Times Episode 335 | 1869
It is 1868 Stickney in Lincolnshire and Priscilla Biggadike and her alleged lover, lodger Thomas Proctor stand accused of the murder of her husband, Richard.
The couple, with three children, have had a notoriously explosive relationship – well known within the community and there is no doubt that Richard has been purposefully murdered by arsenic.
But who did it?
This case has become famous over the years with many a romantic theory.  We take a look at the background, the evidence, the case and the post script of the Stickney Murderess in today’s episode of Murderous Mondays.
Hosted by Robin Coles.
