Episode 31 The Potato Masher Murder by Gary Sosniecki, Pt 2- The Wife Killing Primer

Part 2: In this second installment of The Potato Masher Murder, the 1906 murder of Cecilia Ludwig saw the arrest and trial of her husband, Albin Ludwig. The Defense presented a scenario sharply countered by the Prosecution. But would it be enough to convict Albin? Death penalty on the table, jurors would hear the shocking story of suspicion, obsession, a deteriorating marriage, conflict, and abuse that reach a deadly flashpoint. Join Jill as she tells the story of Albin’s trial and the factors that lead to murder by fire.
