The Ogress Of Reading

The Trial and Execution of Amelia Dyer Jump to the AD-FREE Safe House Edition Episode 43 comes at the request of a listener across the great pond in the United Kingdom. We will be exploring the testimony from the trial of Amelia Dyer, who would take in infants and toddlers for adoption for a fee, and then murder the poor children for the profit. She is said to have once referred to herself as an angel maker. I’ve seen estimates of her carnage at as many as 400 young souls, but she was convicted on only one count, but that was enough for her to pay the ultimate price. Become a supporter of this podcast: .
