The Killing at Coachford News of the Times Episode 303 | 1887 It is 1887, just in the preamble of the ripper killings that will leave a long-lasting scar on the country’s consciousness. This was a story that consumed the UK. Dr Cross, a highly respected retired military man, and it sounds like a bit of curmudgeon with the locals, has shocked society with his revolving door of buried wife followed quickly by marriage of a girl who could easily be his grandchild. There had been fights and recriminations between the good Dr and Mrs Cross before she passed. During her illness, her husband had become unexpectedly newly caring and solicitous. With the speedy burial and even more speedy marriage, neighbours talked. Police listened. We take a look at this remarkable case of a surgeon, his young mistress and the killing of his wife in Coachford, Ireland in today’s episode of Frightful Fridays.

Our first story from 1849 sees young John Ward making advances to the household servant which is not reciprocated. Wishing to marry her, the mother steps in forcibly with fatal consequences. Our second story from 1934 is highly unusual in several ways: the age of the bride, the carrier pigeon, the strong role of the mothers, and the twisting path of the trials. Young Violet is not finding married life something she wants to do, so she goes back to mother. The news does not go down well with her husband.

Aristocratic Chronicles: Two Tales of Murderous Philips News of the Times Episode 297 | 1678 & 1688 In today’s episode we look at two murderous cases, within aristocratic circles, involving protagonists named Philip. In our first case of 1678, Charles II - the party king - is the reigning monarch. Philip, The 7th earl of Pembroke seems to have inherited his father's notorious quick and violent temper. Having just been released from the Tower of London, he visits a pub where he casually meets two others. Upset by a cutting remark made to him, he kicks his victim to death. It is quite possible; this was the first of three murders to take place as his hands. Our second case from 1688 involves the eldest son of Sir James Stansfield referred to as a dissolute drunkard and who regularly racks up thousands of pounds of debt. His despisal for his father is very well known and exacerbated by his father recently cutting him out of his will. Rumours are spread about the insanity of Sir James by his now disinherited son. And then Sir James is found dead in the garden pond. A look at two murderous aristocratic Philips is today’s episode of Wicked Wednesdays.

Stories of Sibling Murder News of the Times Episode 293 | 1873-1875 The killing of a sibling, another child one has grown up with, without the motivation of financial gain, is relatively rare. In today’s episode we look at three cases where the sibling has been convicted of their sibling’s murder. Our first case from 1873 is particularly odd as it recounts the story of a woman of some 75 years who murders her older sister, with a pitchfork. Her older sister is around 80 years of age. Our second case from 1874 recounts the murder of a brother who disapproves of his much younger sister’s budding romance. She is found in a field with her throat slashed. Our last case from 1875 Jersey retells the murder of a sister and the attempted murder of her husband. This case is particularly unique as it involves a public execution some 7 years after public executions had been abolished in England. Three cases of a sister and brothers murdering their respective siblings is today’s episode of Wicked Wednesdays.

The Murder of Rhoda Carter News of the Times Episode 292 | 1893 1893 Watchfield in Berkshire and relatively newly married Rhoda Carter has gone missing.

Returning to ask more questions, John himself has vanished. This case gripped the papers due to the extreme mutilations of the body.

The Dark Side of Aristocracy in 1700's News of the Times Episode 290 | 1729 & 1768 Our first case from 1729 created a scandal that went on for decades. Lady Abergavenny has become intimately close with their nearest neighbour 7 miles away. As suspicions rise with the secretary to Lord Abergavenny, the Lady is caught “in the act”. Our second case from 1768 concerns Lord Baltimore – the family who owned Maryland. Lord Baltimore, a confessed “libertine”, admires the turkish way of life involving harems which Lord Baltimore incorporates into his houses in England. Acting very much like an 18th century version of Jeffrey Epstein, this case was the headline of its day as one of his victims incredibly fights back. Two outrageous cases touching upon the dark side of the ruling classes in the 1700’s is today’s episode of Frightful Fridays.

The Attempted Ravishing of Miss Dickinson News of the Times Episode 286 | 1875 1875 London, and all of England is agog with the scandal that Colonel Valentine Baker, personal friend of Bertie, Prince of Wales, soldier within the Queen’s Guard – a highly prestigious position - and celebrated war hero has been accused of an assault of a sexual nature on a train against a young lady whom he does not know. As further details come out, it would seem that it had been an attempted ravishing – another word for rape in Victorian England. The case is further amplified by the young woman hanging out of a train for 5 miles rather than submit to his attack. The case’s salacious and celebrity status – Colonel Baker regularly rubbing shoulders with the aristocracy and highest echelons of society – ensures that this is the only topic of conversation in London society at the time. We take a look at the crime, the case and the trial of the attempted ravishing of Miss Dickinson in today’s episode of Frightful Fridays Hosted by Robin Coles. #NewsofTheTimes #VictorianCrimeStories #HistoricalCrimeStories #VictorianMurders #Historicalcrimedocumentary #historicaltruecrime #queenvictoria #victorians YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@newsofthetimes Email: newsofthetimespodcast@gmail.com EPISODE If you like this, here are links to some other recommended videos: 1700s: Love and Murder in 1700's | Ep259 https://youtu.be/OrRp3uy2tMc 1807: Terrible Thomas Simmons | Ep249 https://youtu.be/So5pZH7EIlw 1894: The Gildart Street Tragedy | Ep237 https://youtu.be/Ygti6rL5djA 1851 & 1920: Murderous Stories from Suffolk | Ep198 https://youtu.be/7Gjgcka5pzQ 1890: The New Cross Mystery | Ep196 https://youtu.be/oAPQetvIWh0 NEWS OF THE TIMES PLAYLISTS News of the Times MURDEROUS MONDAYS We look at a famous historical murder case of its day in detail https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLuj5alJ9fVqsjz8AEFGWzNvEKXs7xBgm_ News of the Times WICKED WEDNESDAYS The dark side of historical England is explored in this series uploaded every Wednesday https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLuj5alJ9fVqvoksKPFZlNgvjt4IcudB9n News of the Times FRIGHTFUL FRIDAYS A collection of stories with a similar theme such as The Square miles of Murder and A Collection of Macabre Murders https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FAx_ukF2hnc&list=PLuj5alJ9fVqsULx-gK3CrVtbo09cu9EkkgK3CrVtbo09cu9Ekk *** Who are News of the Times?

Insisting that police become involved, a naked dismembered body of a woman is revealed. An accompanying valise holds the head and the limbs. The hand luggage holds thousands in jewels.

The Leiden Poisoner News of the Times Episode 282 | 1883 In 1883 Netherlands, Leiden was rocked by the realisation that they had a serial killer on their hands who had been killing for years without anyone suspecting a thing. Maria van Der Linden, as the British press referred to her, like Helen Jegado, was so kind, so thoughtful, everyone’s auntie, that no one suspected a thing as she speculatively systematically killed over 100. Her motive initially was gain, but with the ability to decide who lived and who died, it would seem in the end before she was caught, much of the time she was murdering because she could. We take a look at the person, the crimes and how she was eventually caught, in today’s episode of Serial Killer Saturdays - The Leiden Poisoner.
