Why Victorian Britain's Killers Were Never Caught | True Crime for Sleep

Wind down to the story of Victorian England and the sixty years, from 1837 to around 1900, in which a country slowly learned to remember its own people. It begins on a cold spring morning in a quiet parish, where you are handed a painted wooden staff and sworn in as the constable, one of your own neighbours given a duty and almost no power to follow a stranger past the edge of the village. From there we move through lodging houses that asked no names, poison registers, death records taken on trust, burial policies and the men who studied all of it. Calm, keyword-rich true crime and history for sleep, told softly from behind the counter and the ledger. #SleepyBritishCrime #BritishCrime #History #Sleep
