Episode 379: The Tragic Case of Florence...

Morbid Network | Wondery
About this episode

Today Alaina brings us the case of Florence Maybrick and asks that we decide whether or not this woman was guilty of murder. Florence’s husband James was known to have a tummy trouble or two, but in May of 1889 those troubles progressed much further and James ended up dead. Immediately, suspicion was placed on Florence and many wondered whether James had actually succumbed to some kind of illness, or if it was Florence that was behind the sudden death. Had she poisoned her husband?
