Small State, Big Crimes: The Mailbox, the Blue Van and Red Hannah

Episode 172 Published 7 months ago
Description
From the high-society betrayal of a 3,000-mile "murder by mail" plot in 1898 to the microscopic forensic breakthrough that caught the notorious Route 40 serial killer, Small State, Big Crimes proves that Delaware’s history is written in more than just legislation. Allen take you from the agonizing Victorian-era "Chocolate Box Murders" of Cordelia Botkin to the chilling mobile dungeon of Steven Brian Pennell, finally facing the crimson shadow of "Red Hannah"—the nation’s last judicial whipping post. This isn't a dry history lesson; it’s a visceral exploration of the First State’s most cold-blooded killers, landmark legal battles, and the brutal colonial traditions that lingered well into the modern age.
