The Case of the Murder in Edinburgh
News of the Times Episode 375 | 1878
It is 1878 in Edinburgh and a young 24 old mother of 4 is dying. Doctors are called and she is taken to hospital, but she never recovers. Her husband, a native Frenchman, puts her death down to a gas leak, pointing out where he believes it has occurred in her bedroom.
A medical examination takes place and it is clear she did not die from coal gas poisoning. Her very distraught mother tells officials of the abusive treatment her daughter has received at the hands of her husband and the very large insurance policy he recently took out on her. But, no poisons are found in her body…
We take a look at this infamous crime that is said to have been the inspiration for the classic gothic novel, Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.
For crime and history buffs, we also take a look at the connection of the murderer with Arthur Conan Doyle and most likely the famous Dr Bell – purported inspiration for the character of Sherlock Holmes or Dr Watson, depending on your point of view.
The Infamous Murder in Scotland in 1878 is today’s episode of Wicked Wednesdays.
We hope you enjoy the show!
Hosted by Robin Coles.
