This episode delves into the enigmatic case of Dr. Hawly Crippen, who was accused of murdering his wife, Cora, in 1910. The story, still gripping over a century later, is filled with inconsistencies, infidelity, forensic mysteries, and dramatic twists. With access to trial transcripts, old news articles, and modern analyses, we explore whether Crippen was a cold-blooded murderer or an unfortunate man caught in a series of unlucky circumstances. Recent DNA evidence raises even more questions, leaving the truth about Cora's disappearance shrouded in mystery. Join us as we examine the evidence, theories, and unresolved questions that continue to captivate audiences.
