Jolly Jane: The Woman Who Played God
About this episode
Jane Toppan: the so-called “Jolly” nurse who used charm, confidence, and a warm bedside manner to mask something far darker. Behind the smile was a woman who experimented on her patients, poisoned with precision, and confessed she wanted to kill more people than any man who ever lived.
In this episode, we unravel the trauma that shaped her, the victims who trusted her, and the psychology of a woman who believed she had the right to decide who lived and who died. This is the story of a caregiver turned predator… and the deadly power she believed she held over every life she touched.
