About this episode
This episode continues the story of the Babb children with a focus on what happened to Mrs. Luster...and we learn that we have to be careful about who we believe.
WARNING: This episode shares a story of extreme cruelty and violence perpetuated in the 1860s. Do not listen unless you are prepared for a graphic, but true, story of captivity. It also includes unacceptable pejoratives and epithets against Native peoples that were common for the time period.
