The Pimlico Poisoning

About this episode

40-year-old Thomas Edwin Bartlett died on January 1st, 1886. He had been sick for about a month before he died, but was expected to recover. A postmortem exam found a deadly amount of chloroform in Edwin’s stomach. Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss what has become known as the Pimlico poisoning. Edwin's wife Adelaide was suspected of poisoning him with the help of a minister named George Dyson. The two had been having an intimate relationship, some say with the blessing and sometimes with Edwin watching. Was Edwin murdered and, if so, who did it?
