Sister Amy’s Murder Factory

This week, Sara and Danny bring us a vintage crime spree from the turn of the 20th century: Amy Duggan Archer-Gilligan’s poisoning of dozens of tenants at her boarding house. They start off by breaking down some interesting details about Amy’s early years and then dive in to her murders, which all took place over the course of 10 years. They also cover how she was allowed to operate for so long before being caught, and discuss her eventual capture and trial. They end the show with a round of living arrangements Would You Rather?, where they carefully consider where they would rather live given a few difficult choices.
