Lydia Sherman
SEASON 1 : EPISODE 14
NOVEMBER 2, 2022
While I was researching this episode, I found myself spending a lot of time trying to get inside the mind of the person we’re discussing tonight. She was a black widow. And, she was an angel of death. But why? Did she think she was showing mercy to her victims? Was she herself a victim of society’s failures and the lack of support? Or was she just a cold and callous murderer? This is the story of the Derby Poisoner, Lydia Sherman.
