The Stanford Bathtub Murder
Episode 255 examines the sensational events following the discovery of a woman found dead in the bathtub, bludgeoned to death, and all circumstantial evidence pointing to the husband.

Culled from the historic pages of the Oakland Tribune, the San Francisco Chronicle, and other newspapers of the era.
