Murder by Burying Alive - Wicked Wednesdays
News of the Times Episode 234 | 1870 - 1922
In today’s episode of Wicked Wednesdays, we look at three cases where the victim was buried alive.
Our first case from 1870 is a story of love and vengeance as Mr Triffit is dumped by his long term mistress. How to get back at her? Report to the police that they both killed and buried alive their three illegitimate children.
Our second case from 1907 Pennsylvania recounts a take of blinding jealousy to anything or anyone who takes time away from his beautiful bride…
Our third case sees us back in England in 1922. Percy Atkins has found himself a new wife whilst his first wife is away. She comes back, but not for long.
Three twisting cases of murder by burying alive is today’s episode of Wicked Wednesdays.
Hosted by Robin Coles.
