Episode 133: The Derby Poisoner

True Crime New England

On this week's episode of True Crime New England, Katie and Liz are throwing it back to 18th century Connecticut and bringing you into the life of female serial killer Lydia Sherman. Over the course of her reign of terror, Lydia found her way into the lives of several men, leaving each of them convulsing and foaming at the mouth from arsenic poisoning when they no longer served their purpose to her. She also murdered a handful of children, including a good amount that were her own. Tune in to hear about this historical case of the woman who somehow evaded law enforcement time and time again. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/truecrimene/support
