Episode description
Bad Daniel Good - The Murderous Butcher
News of the Times Episode 188 | 1842
In 1842 the horrific butchering of Jane Jones, followed by his attempts to burn her body parts in a fireplace sent shockwaves through the city.
The culprit was known, but after a humiliating escape from police, Daniel Good absconds. Nine police divisions are sent out to scour the city of London for the culprit.
But the elusive Mr Good manages to repeatedly keep himself just out of reach of the police until finally captured by an off-chance meeting with someone from his past.
This infamous case was a major factor in the decision to create a central intelligence unit as the police attempted to recover from the scathing newspaper reports and their perceived bungling in this horrific crime.
Bad Daniel Good, his gruesome crime, the strange tale of the discovery of the body, his trickery of the police and his eventual final capture is today’s episode of Murderous Mondays.
Hosted by Robin Coles.
