Could a mere rumor lead to a man's execution? Join Hannah and Jess as we unravel the gripping murder trial of Daniel Davis Farmer from 1800s Manchester, New Hampshire, where hearsay played a pivotal role in one man's fate. This episode takes you through the chilling details of Anna and her daughter's brutal attack, with bloodied rocks and burn marks painting a haunting scene. We also scrutinize the public's fascination with the case and Daniel's alleged obsession with Anna, revealing how historical crimes were prosecuted in ways that might shock you today.
As we dissect the evidence—or lack thereof—against Daniel, we'll draw parallels to infamous cases like Lizzie Borden, highlighting the spectacle that trials often became in that era. Tune in for an engaging blend of true crime and historical analysis that promises to keep you riveted from start to finish.
